Sounds great Graham.   I could n't help nut think -  "They called me the snowman"   "ghost Blues"   

Could it be a reflection of grey hair ?      smile   smile   smile

Looked like a lot of fun and a nice bar.

We have  a  number   of  good  venues round  here  Jim . I'm just  easing my  self back  into  playing after  my  covid  experiences  . Still  a  bit  of  a  struggle  though .

Nice one Graham, sounds like the voice is holding up well and getting stronger. Rock on Tommy!

Better than I expected Phill I'd resigned my self to just playing guitar for Ronnie and the Rockits but I got invited to a small venue the previous week where I did a short  set which went really well so I thought I'd see if I could manage a propper set .Maybe still a bit too soon but getting there.

Grah, I overworked my voice a few years back over a Christmas time doing 3_4 hour sets. By new year's eve my voice was just a croak by midnight and remained so for around three months! All I can tell you is water, salt, sugar and bicarb, gargle often. Keep away (ironically) from crisps and salty foods on gig nights and build up slowly, and keep away from Sweet Caroline lol

We  do   Sweet  Caroline , 500 miles (proclaimers) and  Delilah in the  current  Rockits    set  . I  don't  sing  them thankfully LOL
