There was some additional entertainment, for the first 20 minutes or so, in the form of a gentleman who had obviously been lubricating himself for a fair few hours previously - it was great to have him dancing right from the start - but, as he was having trouble staying upright even when he wasn't moving, dancing was starting to look like a life-limiting exercise. Paul tried to stare him out a couple of times; however, as his eyes were looking in totally different directions (the other guy's, not Paul's!), this did not have much effect! Fortunately, Glyn Naden did his friendly bouncer act, and the guy "left" - he's probably still trying to find his way home even now.
Several of the guys from Macc Round Table joined us for the second half - on one of their monthly nights out, they were fresh from the Thai restaurant next door and, although they claimed to be just after some of Storm Brewing's "Bosley Cloud" (which was on fine form, incidentally), we reckon they were secretly checking us out to see if we were fit to do the Beer Festival again this year! We've been in touch with the Chairman, but if anyone wants to lobby on our behalf, pop in and see Micky Jones in his Chestergate shop, and tell him to make it happen!
There'll be some photos of the night on here shortly - when Colin sends me the CD - he took about 300 shots on the night, so we should get a couple of good ones!
Here's the set list we did (click on it to see a big version):
Next gig is for the Congleton Round Table Ladies Night next Saturday (16 February) - a "posh do" in Congleton Park (well, in a building in the Park!), so log back on here to get an update on how it went! After that, we're at The Old Ship Inn on Mill Lane in Macc on Saturday 1 March, which is always a good night, so put the date in your diary now!
