Its A Cold One Today...
Even indoors but calm...Just checked and the termometer says 6c(40f)Shock!
Not like last night. I had to go out but nearly didn't and gave up on the concert I had booked ages ago when I saw the weather I was having to venture into.
The rain was freezing cold and stinging my face, occasionally you did well to stay on your feet. However, the bus arrived only five minutes late. As I said in my previous post I called into a supermarket near the venue to save the effort in my own town after the concert but that was a big fail and waste of time...
The wind was that bad I could actually hear it in the town hall even though the room for the concert is(from memory)windowless and the curtain at the back of the stage was moving so there must have been some way for the draught to find its way into the room. I have never seen or heard that before and by the second half I had put my coat back on to get warmer.
I am glad that I made the effort to go. Two hours of pure magic. Accomplished musicians at the top of the craft playing the music of and in the style of Jean "Django" Reinhardt and Stephane Grappelli and brought to life thanks to Emma Fiske(violin)Mick Shoulder(double bass)James Birkett(guitar)and Giles Strong(guitar)under the guise of Djangologie.

Do look out for them if you see they are appearing locally, they do have CD's for purchase and apart from the website they are on Facebook too. And you can watch them on You Tube too. Its a good way to keep in touch with where they are appearing, their CD's and to hear just how good they are.
