Govannen was back on the road at the weekend with 2 gigs.

Saturday was a ceilidh at Stamford Arts Centre - last time I played there I nearly got stuck in the snow on the way home. this time ON THE WAY TO the gig i got a flat tire - limped home and luckil;y G didn't taker her car to her choir gig so i took that. Twas one of those nights you arrive at 6pm to find you only are playing at 10.30pm. There were a lot of VERY keen dancers and the birthday lady whose party it was was amazing. Kinda too many dancers in one go to make the calling easy with the noise. It was OK - a late night hime at 1.30am.

Sunday afternoon saw just 3 of us (Neil Rabjohn was poorly) at The Donkey - a rare Leicester gig. We decided to widen the set to songs we hadn't done a for a long while, add the odd original song. - I sang Train Of Thought & The Alien Jellyfish Song. I took my guitar which I haven't in ages. And what a crowd! It was packed!! So many chums. Nice to have a real concert feel, and loose some of the Irish pub songs.

My voice still gets a bit cracked/wheezy cough after a lot of singing - just gonna take time  - I was able to sing OK on it tho. Just a bit croaky the next day.
