Greetings Music Lovers
Well, seems a long time since WoodWorks - which was great - apart from a couple of hours shower (well, downpour really) on Sunday, but thank you to everyone who turned up, some of you for both days, and hope you all enjoyed yourselves as much as I did. There are pictures up on the Marston Vale website. I have been asked to do it all again next year, so if you have any suggestions, now is the time to let me know!
However, more immediately, are the next two events at the Corn Exchange, starting with:
MIKE HARDING'S AUTUMN TOUR 2011 www.mikeharding.co.uk
"Me, a guitar and some daft stuff"
THURSDAY OCTOBER 27th at Bedford Corn Exchange 8pm
*Tickets £15.00 (and concessions) 01234-219519
*******Ticket price includes a pre-gig session with Bedford's own Celtically Connected FAERIES WEAR BOOTS from 7pm to 7-45pm in the Howard Room where you can relax with a drink, meet some old friends, and enjoy some great live music prior to the main event.
For those of you familiar with Mike's weekly Radio 2 folk programme which started in 1999, you may not be aware of his many other interests and achievements.
Fifteen years after giving up touring the folk clubs and festivals, folk singer and comedian, writer and broadcaster, Mike Harding is back on the road with a vengeance. Following a try-out tour of arts centres and small theatres earlier this year, Mike’s decided he enjoyed it so much he wants to do it all over again in the autumn.
In October and November he’ll be taking his own unique mix of folk songs, monologues and daft stories to theatres and concert halls from Bedford to Blackpool, Scarborough to Stratford.
In a career that’s lasted almost 50 years, Mike’s built up a back catalogue of over 20 albums and even made the charts in the 1980s with his single “Rochdale Cowboy”. Less well known is the fact that he’s been equally prolific as a writer with over 20 books and 8 plays to his credit.
