Bluegrass and Pudsey!

Thanks to Tony Curran, who reports from the North:

Colin Henry (dobro), Gabriel Irisarri (mandolin), Colin Allen (banjo), Brian Crawford (guitar), and I (banjo) played on Saturday past at Ellie May's in Dunadry, Co. Antrim (see above photo).

We managed to wheedle a total of £105 from the punters to donate to 'Children in need' - which goes out live on BBC1 on 18 Nov. We intend to add to this amount by playing again for the next two Saturdays (12 and 19 Nov.) from 15:30 onward, and welcome other bluegrass musicians to come along and give us: a) a helping hand; b) a donation for this worthy cause. Please spread the word!
