Hi, sorry I haven't been along to any Open Mics for the past few weeks - My dog had a bad fall and required an operation and has been wandrering around with a bucket/lampshade collar on since then and I did not feel that I should leave him on his own for four-five hours !! However, his wound is healing up and he is now 'lampshade' free, so I hope to be back in at the Open Mics very soon!!
Bye for now.

Scotch Corner 25th September 2008 Bob's Open Mic
I arrived a little late but Bob was on the ‘new’ stage in Scotch Corner with Davie Martin who was singing ‘Handbags and Gladrags’.
Bob then sang a few more songs including ‘What in the world came over you’ and ‘Fell in love with the lady’.
He then got Duncan Adams up for a couple of tunes. Duncan sang ‘Lovely tonight’ and then ‘Keep it country tonight’.
Bob then asked Elspeth Durkin up to sing a Carol King song ‘Will you still love me tomorrow’ before duet ting with Bob on ‘Love Hurts’ and then she did some backup vocals when Bob sang ‘The weight’.
George was next up and there was a bit of friendly commenting about the length of the songs he sings - including comments such as ‘I think we’ll call you LP George from now on!’ He sang an Abba song ‘The day before you came’ followed by ‘Temporary like Achilles’.
Tony then got up to sing ‘It ain’t me babe which segued into the Eagles song ‘Take it easy’ [ however he did not want his photo put onto the blog so you will have to imagine what he looks like!]. Bob went back up and sang a Steve Earle song ‘Can’t remember if I said goodbye’ followed by ‘Me and Bobby McGee’. Duncan then got back up and sang a Travelling Wilbury song ‘End of the line’ with backing from Elspeth & Bob. Bob then finished off the evening with a little medley with Elspeth on backing vocals [whilst seated!] finishing with ‘You’re as Drunk as me’.
