Reminder: Pete returns to his old haunt The Lamb Folk Club in Old Town, Eastbourne, on Wednesday (20th).
No need to book -- just show up (BN21 1HH) at 7:30, grab a pint and hand over your eight quid.

The Lamb Eastbourne

Apparently it was Pete's 15th visit to The Lamb at Eastbourne yesterday (and my third). I'm not sure if there were any other MVs there but some local members of the Folk Club are well versed in the songs.
It was lovely to see and hear Pete again for the first time since the pandemic, and my move to Glasgow.
The setlist:
1. Where have they all gone? (g)
2. Practical man (g)
3. History and geography (g)
4. Frangipanni was her flower (k)
5. Canoe (k)
6. Cottonmouth (k)
7. Beware of the beautiful stranger (g)
8. Rainwheels (k)
9. Between us there is nothing (k)
10. Senior citizens (g)
11. Girl on the train (g)
12. Teddy bears' picnic (k)
13. I've got me to thank (k)
14. Together at last (g)
History and geography and Between us there is nothing were the highlights for me, both beautiful. It was good to hear Together at last for the first time.
The Teddy bears' picnic was a new and probably temporary addition to the repertoire. This was not a light fluffy children's version but changed rhythmically to something very creepy and quite sinister, which it is if you think about the lyrics.

Thanks Pete!
Please could someone repost the setlist on Facebook for me?

What a great surprise to see Jan at the Lamb. I'll post a bit more shortly, but in the meantime I have to go back to the hospital briefly, because what Jan didn't tell you is that in the course of the set-up on Wednesday I slipped and toppled over onto a table, landing on my left arm, which I'd clearly hurt quite badly. I carried on (as you've seen from the setlist) but with quite a few changes and adjustments. Long story short, I had broken the main bone in my left forearm and I now have a full-arm cast. It should mend OK, but it'll be at least two and maybe uo to six weeks. That's rock and roll! Apparently!

Good grief! Not just a sprain then.
I hope it heals up quickly.
Take care
