from nick's myspace this morning
posted by nick b hall from his myspace blog this morning...
"hi all
just thought i'd knock out a quick chatty blog... lots of interesting things happening... great two shows at beverley festival at the weekend (one with the halls, one with michelle), but we didn't make the lindley woodstock for reasons various. we probably upset people there but, hey, i decided a few years ago that i was going to say 'no' more and not worry about the feelings of others as much, as i used to make myself ill worrying about that!
songs are pouring out at the moment.... the ones i'm very proud of are 'michelle's song', 'world domination now!', 'bierley hill', the finally-finished 'the fall and the flood' and the half-written 'the big surround'. i hope to play all these songs at my wee solo gig in otley at the red lion next sunday. hopefully michelle will join me onstage.
i'm hoping to go and lig with my friends magna carta at their grassington festival gig tomorrow - maybe see some of you there? could be mc's last gig in grassington which makes it even more of an occasion.
so, i'm tired but happy at the moment.
see you all soon i trust

michelle plum & nick b hall support peter tork tomorrow
THIS FROM PROMOTER JOHN KEENAN WITH DETAILS ABOUT TOMORROW'S CONCERT...
Peter Tork of The Monkees is making a one-off stop at Otley Civic Centre to talk about his time in The Monkees and to play some of their hits. It's a solo gig and a very rare event. Peter is over in Europe for several festival dates.
Because he's staying in the North of England we've decided to put on this special gig at very short notice. There are 200 tickets available on the door (at 7.30pm) plus some advance from Jumbo Records, (0113 245 5570) Leeds or Waye & Son Travel Agents (01943 463244) in Otley.
When you think about it, this International star of stage and screen is just about the biggest name ever to have appeared in Otley. Can anyone say different?
