Ok, don’t contribute, all good

i have contributed.
i gave some names of very important artists that have somehow been omitted from this thread.
please seek them out.

i know myself too well,
if i start posting vids i'll be on here all day for ages
and i'm sort of planning a bluemoon timeout,
which would cock it up.

Any mooners going to the Ryan Adams gig at the Apollo in April?

Annoying that it's all seated and just him solo, was hoping this tour would be a standing full band show.

I've still got tickets though and looking forward to it.

Been listening to these guys loads lately - Dawn Brothers, a band from Rotterdam who sound like they're from 1970s Alabama, absolutely class, some tone on those guitars and hammond organs.

They're mates with the Black Keys and supported them on tour apparently



They're playing Retro Bar on 12 May, not been in there for about 15 years, had no idea it was still open!

Not sure if it quite fits here (maybe too mainstream?) but the beautiful and very talented Melba Montgomery died the other day.
She and George were just fantastic.

Dooley by The Dillard's is one of my favourites. I enjoy a lot of their tunes.
