Drinking Heavily The Night Before a Gig And Wakening up on a Bench in a Busy Parisian Street at 9am in The Morning Wasn't Really Good Preparation For Playing Live, or Was it?

 

I Have to Say This Years Tribute Was Made Special With The Presence of Mick Grondhal And Gary Lucas… Both With Their Paths intertwined in Musical History, They Are Beautiful People And Wonderful Musicians!

 

It Was a Lovely Experience to Have Dinner With Mick Grondhal And Chat About Music And Obviously About Jeff Over a Few Glasses of Red Wine ^^ Mick Was Saying How Impressed They Were When Playing Edinburgh With The Layout And Reception They Received in Scotland! (Ochk I The Noo Jimmy)

 

Overall The Whole Thing Was Excellent, Met Lots of Talented People From All Over The World, Heard Some Incredible Voices Too! We Don't Have to Worry About Great Singers in The Future There's Plenty of Them ;) Had a Good Blether With Gary Lucas Also, The Guy's a Great Character; Hope to Get Him over to Glasgow Soon.

 

Thanks For Everything.

 

Billy
