Re: The London Gig Guide

Phil, another amendment - sorry, as you've just updated!

The VATA website is not showing them as being at either of the Pete Feenstra venues (27th and 29th March). Pete's website has got "tbc" for the Beaverwood on the 27th and another band entirely for Boom Boom Club on the 29th.

Gig Guide on page one updated as far as Koko on the venues list. I'll try to complete the update on Monday. Thanks again for the prompts.

Mike, according to the 100 Club listings, Blues Caravan are not there on the 25th March. I've checked the Blues Caravan tour dates on their website and at the moment they aren't even showing the Beaverwood show hmm

Phil

Hi Phil - & Happy New Year,

Sorry if the dates are not correct - got them from Albert Castiglia's site; maybe he's being a little "previous". Don't know if you've seen him before; I haven't but my sources say he's not to be missed.

Re: The London Gig Guide

Guide on page 1 now fully updated subject to e&o. hmm

David, thanks for pointing out the VATA errors. Not sure what original the source was but I know Pete F's listings are a bit wayward sometimes.

Mike, thanks for all your prompts. Please let me know here if you see anything more definite for the Blues Caravan.

Billy, thanks for Albany Down date. I'm not familiar with your band but they do sound interesting and at only eight quid entrance fee upfront, very tempting. If anyone else is interested, here are a few sample tracks from their 2011 debut album, South Of The City.

Re: The London Gig Guide

According to Ryan McGarvey's site:-

31st July - Boom Boom
1st Aug - Beaverwood

May require confirmation from Linda V..... (once she's completed the Carl Palmer tour)

Hi Phil, - Beaverwood (18/3) and 100Club (25/3) are currently listed on Laurence Jones' site as Blues Caravan events as well as Albert Castiglia's. May be worth checking at the venues again, though for me, Buck Hotel, Reeth isn't listing yet either.

Re: The London Gig Guide

Gig Guide updated as far as the Feenstra venues. Hopefully, more tomorrow.

Mike, No sign of the Blues caravan stopping at the 100 Club on 25th March so far or Ryan McGarvey at the Feenstra venues yet. No doubt Linda will confirm in due course.

Relayer, Gordon Giltrap and Oliver Wakeman are not featuring on The Bedford listings so far. I'll check again another time.

Thanks.

Please keep 'em coming.
