Outfit Gig at 1901, in Pollokshaws: Sat 18th Nov 2006

Last night, I went along to see THE OUTFIT
[ Big Bob , Johnny 'T' , Alex Mac and 'Young' Davie ] at their gig inthe 1901 bar, in Pollokshaws. They were in excellent form and rocked the night away.

They did several original songs, mainly written by Bob Leslie, such as "Mara" and "the Devil is a friend of mine"as well as quite a few well known covers such as "Born to be wild", "Handbags and Gladrags", "6 Days on the road" and "Sweet Home Alabama" which was sung by John. Unfortunately for him, the fuse in his amp blew right in the middle of the song, and he couldn's fix it until after finishing his song - but I think he looked quite laid back about it!!






They also invited a few people to join them 'on stage' : Elspeth Durkin was asked to sing harmony on the cover of Little Feat's 'Dixie Chicken',

and Joe Kidd





did a couple of his own songs, as well as Davey McNeill and Tony, a regular at the bar, sang a couple of songs.

I will need to learn how to 'download' my short videos snaps of peple in action, so that you can get a flavour of the evenings.
