Trail Across Britain 2010

[Mario]

Just got this report from R.Jim Greaves:

Hi Mario,

The gig was excellent last night. The venue was just about full, I only spotted about 5 or 6 empty seats. The sax player (Martin Winning) now seems to be a regular in the band.
Set List was as follows :-
1 Rattlesnake Shake
2 Pretty Woman
3 Ain't Nothing You Can Do
4 Long Grey Mare
5 Steal Your Heart Away
6 Key To The Highway
7 Barefootin'
8 The Stumble
9 Dark End Of The Street
10 Can't Stop Loving My Baby
11 Off The Hook
12 Blues Get Off My Shoulder
13 Oh Well / Albatross
14 The Thrill Is Gone
15 Stranger Blues
Encores
16 Sitting In The Rain (just Peter & Mike Dodds)
17 Black Magic Woman
( I may have missed one from early in the set - the problems of trying to write in the dark!)
Peter's guitar work seemed strong and overall much better than the Splinter Group days. His voice is well past its best but was better than I expected possibly because the band aren't that loud so Peter doesn't have to shout. Mike Dodds took a few vocals too which helps (Barefootin', Off The Hook and Sitting if I remember). Crowd loved it and they were all standing and cheering at the end.
Let's hope they manage to record a gig (properly) or get into a studio and catch Peter while he's playing well.

Cheers for now,

Jim
