Melted Cheese.

The day is once again upon us where the average Nantwich resident, or for that matter any of today's many visitors to The Nantwich Show increase their cheese intake by approximately a thousand percent.
I was asked to perform by Liz, of supporter of all-things-Nantwich Redshift Radio.
It was good again to see a few familiar faces in the audience, the only thing making things difficult being the continuing extreme heat, but I guess it brings the crowds out!
Sound check.

The sun brought mor out for the show itself.

Alsager Music Festival 2018

The really rather wonderful Alsager Music Festival once again in high summer and another gig in this extraordinary heatwave of Summer 2018.
It was great fun doing it last year with the full band, always more fun with your 'gang' of course, but this time, although solo for much of the set, I enlisted the help of some very talented youngsters on guitar and backing vocals for 'No Tobacco', a couple of very talented students of mine, namely the Bugg brothers, Owain and Dylan Bugg.
They have so much raw talent and charisma... Watch out world!

Many thanks to the multi-talented music-man Marc Gallagher for doing such professional and efficient work on the live sound (and photos, including the ones of me here and the close-up of my acoustic which I can't seem to caption right now, do check out what Marc's up to though, via his social media pages, especially his own gigs).
Special thanks to, to the old friends and new, who turned up to my set.
Big crowds in the sun.

Many thanks to Marc Gallagher for this photo.
Soul and his good friend Joe came along 😀
The Bugg Brothers stole the show.
