Paul Heaton at the Duke of Welly Shoreham tonight

[Julio]

Anyone lucky enough to bag tickets for the Heaton gig at the Duke tonight? Should be a cracking evening with old Housemartins tunes scattered amongst some excellent new stuff. What odds Norm popping in to pick up his bass for Me and the Farmer?

Lucky.
Is a class act.

Even in the very early days, this was amazing and different to what anyone else was producing:

I'll be there ready to join in with some 'Caravan of Love' action!

I was in there last week and didn't notice any posters for it (I had forgotten about it). I did see a band in there last Thurs who played loads of 50s R&R stuff - not really my cup of tea, but they did do a Stevie Ray Vaughan track which pleased me.

I have played in there a number of times with bands, but not for a long time.

Have a spare for face value (£15). pm me if interested.

 

[Blues Rock DJ]

£15 to get in

FWIW - The duke these days is much more like what it used to be in atmosphere and music. Back in the day, it was bands on in there several nights a week, then when the landlord (Malcolm) sold it, it became very sterile in there, no atmos at all - and I don't think they had any, or much music. Is now very much like it used to be - and the better or it.

I love the Welly, it's one of my favorite pubs. Gutted to not get some tickets for tonight - my Mum and Dad are massive Beautiful South fans and would love to have seen him

Didn't make it myself, but my mates run the pub and by all accounts it was an awesome night.

I Think That was Micky Hart and the Hartbreakers

Yup, it was.

Top night and one to file away under the heading of lucky to be there. We'll never see the Housemartins reform, so seeing 50% of them in a pub will more than do. The new stuff from Heaton is superb and it was good to see the Duke rocking.

Only saw the second half after dashing back from a gig at the Hawth in Crawley but it was great, wasn't it? Definitely inviting him to Glastonwick next year...
