Thanks for the kind words. Clive is certainly a master. Dan Arborise is next and he has quite a reputation also.

It was textbook. The music was matched by clive's banter.
It was a brilliant night indeed. I had seen Clive Caroll before and enjoyed him then too. A top night. Thx John and Isaac.
Is it by invitation only or can anyone go? I have heard that they are great nights.

a night at the light house would be good i am getting back to my old self now that the years have passed and starting to enjoy music a lot more, i haven't been there in years but i must say magnificent collection of guitars when i was there! I have just recently bought a cheap guitar to practice on but i must admit it will take some time to produce anything near the quality of john and isaac i will most likely be in a zimmer frame by the time i can play anywhere near their quality
'e nite wis indeed fantastic....top class. 1st half wis a class act also. a nice way til break on 'e musical season at 'e litehoose.
i wis lucky enough til enjoy a wee session efterwards wi mr fattz an mr carroll, absolutely brilliant....wis totally blown awie. cana wait til 'e next one.

I've not heard, or seen, footage from the Barrere/ Tackett show yet, trix. But I hope to, soon.
Speaking of the peedie feeties, there's a good chance we'll be supporting the full Little Feat band when they come to th ABC in Glasgow on May 12th. You might want to cadge a lift doon to Glesga yon night, trix :)

I agree with Butterfly the nite was exellent and great to see a masterful guitarist and also fats an isaac as edgy as ever.
Also hearing the accordian and the bongo drums being played struck me as new and really interesting,would like to hear more o dis.:)

How are these excellent gigs funded? Is it supported by HI-Arts or lottery money or anything?
These gigs are private parties with invited guests and they are funded by contributions from these guests. Each person is contacted personally with no public admission. Indeed there are many people who would like to come and consider themselves my friend but I may overlook a number of folk when preparing for a concert. If you fall into that category, PM me.:)
And there is always birthday cake at the August concert. :)

Am sure we could squeeze you onto the guestlist, trix ;)
Speaking of the peedie feeties, our support slot with them should be confirmed this Monday coming. It's been a long wait, but, good things come to those...
Dan Arborise is playing next Thursday. A fine guitarist.

It was a good night. :) I really enjoyed it. I would have like to have seen the lad with the accordian do a solo though. I never knew I liked accordian music until I heard him. He gets a bit lost when joining in. :)

Was at another gig last night at the Lighthouse.Michael Weston King.He was really good.Did anybody else see him?Fats was in good form as usual.
Yep,went along too, crisp sounds from both guitarists(acoustic fats on his own for a change and michael weston king) as well as mellow,thoughtful lyrics which provoke feelings in music rather than striking guitar riffs and charged energy, a very rhythmic live feeling to a harmonious night muchly enjoyed.

Just seeing this thread revived made a question pop into my head which I'm sure Gleber2 or Chobbersjnr could help answer...
Is there any word or possibility of Aberfeldy bringing themselves up to your neck of the woods again any time soon?
Flipping missed the last one :(
I missed aberfeldy?????????????? Where when?? At the lighthouse??

They came here on a Tune Up tour and were consequently quite cheap to book. Beyond my budget these days. Must be about three years since their visit.
Spewing that I missed the Clive Carroll gig!! and after saying I would be there too:(, I had even bought some new harps 'cause I was well up for a jam!!
I will try and make the next one if thats cool Johnny.

Wasn't Clive, it was blues man, Pete Price who was here. Excellent blues night and a pity you missed it. !3th(Sunday next) will see Australian folk trio led by Chloe Hall here and you would be welcome to play a bit with us.

Are you always 3 years behind lol?
Pete Price was great and you also missed the birthday cake which was even better! :)
Are you always 3 years behind lol?
Clive was here in March this year, so who's behind?:)

Very good he was too.
I gotta get a diary! lol.

Err... would that be me then? I did a quick scan of this thread to see what I'd missed. "Clash-something" & "Guitar-zing" obviously confused me so I need to focus more when I try to tune into the Music Forum. I hope this doesn't mean I have been struck off the guest list. :(
Aberfeldy, Clive Carroll, Pete Price - who cares? You can't beat live music and every night at the Lighthouse is a great night. The venue is superb, the hosts always friendly and welcoming, what more can I say to redeem myself? ;)
