It never fails to amaze me that, even after running weekly for over 3 years new people come to play almost every session! This week my friend Simon Storey from London played some great double bass, and Dave from Llandissilio who sang old, new and self written songs. A good batch of regulars also came of course making for a good evening of music. My highlight was Sue’s offering of “In These Shoes?” with Simon’s bass and Tom’s trumpet not to mention a load of guitars, ukes etc. (and an accordion.)
