A Few More Photos From Brighton






Here's a few more photos from the Brighton gig, including Petes Airstream. Saw Pete going to it but I was not quick enough for a photo. Ross Halfin has nothing to worry about.

The WHO, Brighton 18 June 2006



Just got in from the gig in Brighton. Here is a couple of photos. Casbah Club and The Who were fantastic. Rock photographer Ross Halfin was snapping away in the pit. His photos will be better than mine!

Ready When you Need Me Pete!!!



The guitars are tuned and I'm ready for the call from Pete, if Simon or Pete himself needs a couple of nights off from the tour. I've been practising like mad and can comfortably play Kumbayah. Just hope they have it in their new set!!!

The Boys Are Back!!




The Who hit the road on Saturday for a fifteen month world tour and not just The Who but the In The Attic roadshow as well. An enormous amount of money will be raised for charity ( it is expected to be in the region of $10,000,000). Petes Double O charity will benefit and also The Teenage Cancer Trust, the Michael J Fox Foundation (Parkinson’s Research), the Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation (for underprivileged children), the Robin Hood Foundation (which funds and supports innovative poverty-fighting organizations in New York City) are amongst some of the organisations which will all benefit from special Who shows in the coming year and beyond. My Father died with Parkinsons so this is of particular interest as is The Teenage Cancer Trust not for any personal reason, just that the principle of it is spot on. So who will win the smashed guitar table? Me I hope. Here is the link to new Who website and also where ITA will be webcast. www.thewholive.tv

What Do I Post?




I've tried posting a short clip of video from Casbah Clubs Southend gig but the lip sync on You Tube was not good. I wanted to post something, so here's a couple of photos I took at the Biggin Hill Air Show. Biggin Hill was an airdrome used extensively in the second world war. They have an air show every year and I went last Saturday. Jill was buried with work so I went on my own and got sunburnt as it was very hot. The fighter is a Typhoon.
