Acoustic Night

The Crew:

Compere J Words

Sound Will Lloyd

Floor Manager Ian Sills

David Johnson
is a poetry Don with a sense of humour.
He began proceedings by, poetically, describing to us the contents of his pants, which were roundly applauded. No, really!

Caroline Sawyer, David Sollors, David Johnson
Monty
is a singer, songwriter.
Accompanying himself on guitar Monty makes a smokey-voiced, feel good sound. The girl in his song should have been there to hear him.

Talkin’ Tekla The Narrator
entertained us with a poetic narration of his humorous ‘women’ troubles.

Hollowbody
is a singer, songwriter.
Playing interesting melodies with skilful finger pickin’, he sang dreamy sounding songs that had political bite.

Craig Wilson
is a regular Acoustic Nite contributor.
Craig is a prolific and scary poet, this evening he conjured maidens and devils, dancing on the Sabbath!

Bryn
Slide blues on a very funky guitar. . . there’s tumbleweed in the room. No, really!

BRYN

Andy Wade
Witty words, dressed in black.

Phil Baber
Accompanying himself on guitar, Phil sang about a person who’d lost their heart in a fountain, in Spanish. I can only imagine what he’s saying whilst tapping my feet and smiling. Mesmerising.

David Sollors
A poet who humorously explores the plastic virtue of (Gro)tesco’s

This weeks Special guest. EMMA HARPER
Real woman, real songs, real talent!
Emma is running an acoustic nite at The Eldon pub. Any interested persons can contact her there.

EMMA HARPER

Simon Leake
is a very quiet poet, which means I had to listen carefully, which meant I was pleasantly rewarded.

Polly Moyer
is wonderful! She said she wasn’t going to sing because she loves us. . . we love it when she does perform her poetry

POLLY MOYER

Mike Gorton
is a singer, songwriter, creating up tempo, swing happiness on his guitar.
To get your free CD (No, really!) contact him through Acoustic Night.

John Christopher Wood
is a poet.

Caroline Sawyer
is a performance poet. She also runs ‘Open House Poetry’. contact her for more details openhousepoetry@aol.com

David Basencoe
plays the Jewish Harp.
Jewish Harp, Psytrance, it’s hard to tell the difference!

Ian Sills
is part of the Acoustic Nite Crew and a top performance poet, even when he insists on singing. No, really! Have you heard The Sweetie Rap?

Gina Brigante
is a poet and a singer who always performs to a professional standard, as well as being rather talented.
What a treat!

Thank you Acoustic Night. Apologies for any erroneous information, or offence caused. Do I look bothered!?

Thanks to Ali Wade for the review

ACOUSTIC NIGHT STATS
OK. So it’s a long time ago and everyone who is anyone can’t remember a bloody thing about tonight apart from the fact that it was a really good night. A shot in the dark about audience brings us to assume there were about 40+ peeps warming the seats. !8 performers and 2 virgins. Apologies for the tardiness of posting but we’re still better than the Royal Mail on average delivery time. We are going shopping soon so you can look forward to better fotos in due course!
