Vermilion Blues.......
Oh man......what a grand night we had! Friends; beverages; live music; informal venue, laughing; talking; friends; more beverages; more laughing! Vermilion Folk Club.....invited Mark Sterling .....played electric acoustic & National steel guitar, harmonica, sang, chatted...... At one point he was introducing one of his own instrumentals, inspired by a tree full of birds outside his house. He casually asked the audience if anyone knew what these birds were.... Rob..."cedar wax wings" Jodie...."don't believe him, that's his bullsht voice". Just as Jodie finished that comment, a voice from the stage says.....cedar wax wings !!! Needless to say, Rob felt vindicated & those birds forever more will be known as 'bullshit wax wings' !!! (see below). You can check out the guitarist on the following link...... http://www.myspace.com/marksterling69 The night was held at the Legion Hall, a mixture of RSL Club & Scout Hall......the size of Scout Hall, but better....because it had a bar! Just the right size for a night of blues.....no-one was smoking stogies though!!! He was fairly brilliant...& Vin was fairly jealous ! It was a seriously toe-tappin night ! The joy of being amongst friends........ |
There is an 'open stage' night coming up with the Folk Club......stay tuned....we all know Vin loves a captive audience?!
Found out the next day that Caroline had announced on facebook that Vin would be performing?!!! Could be Karma for me posting such a bad photo of her......she is a truly beautiful woman...such is life!
