One AK is appearing in Bridlington* on 5th November.
Expect fireworks ?


* Once a home to Ted Hawkins.

??? Will there be a forum representative present, I'm wondering ?

[Globaltruth]

I'm going - should be able to do the odd post.

Not expecting fireworks just book plugging and a DJ set from AK .

Some fascinating acts booked, o and that feller Chris Wood who is meant to be quite good I believe?

Excuses in advance - previous experience shows events conspire so don't always get to see those I plan to see...Think that's the beauty of fests tho?

[Paul Sherratt]

I acquired * that good Wood's Albion work the other day with a stack of Capital Bonds.
(Is that slightly ironic ?)
Anyway I'm off to Manchester shortly so might get chance to listen to a few tracks.


* There's not much to choose from in HMV nowadays !

I'll be seeing him at Musicport too - should be interesting. Great line up generally this year too

Top choice Paul - this one remains a big hit up in this neck of the wood, for people who've taken the time for a listen.

Don't think it was made yesterday!

Have a great time all you musicporters - check out if Andy's likely to get up to anything soon will you - I rather enjoyed his wee bok, have to say.

[Paul Sherratt]

How did the weekend go overall - were the audiences enthusiastic ?

He didn't have an overall Paul - he was strutting his stuff in the space helmet it appears.

John,
One of the my favourite gigs ever was when the star was touring in his overalls.
Made a tv appearance in them too.

I wonder if pictures exist of the bop-bobbing helmet ?

Btw Re: the petition wotsit - has AK actually said that he'd like to present a dj-show again ?

Here's one he inspired earlier !

I did once make a suggestion that R3/AK produced a programme that was more retrospective in nature, given the years of delights that many will never have heard - but neither party
seemed interested at the time

Don't have a clue what inspired the petition, last time I looked still less than a few people had bothered to sign and that's despite a bit of help from a certain Ms E. Carthy. So it's a dead duck as far as I can see.

Now if it's a book tour you want...or voice-overs etc....just look at the busy website

To book Andy for voice-overs, commercials or narrations, please call...

etc...
