Finishing off the first half was
Zak with Clapton's 'Wonderful
Tonight' and his self-penned 'Take What You Want'. He's not bought
himself an acoustic guitar yet! |

Opening the second half were first timers to the Club,
Pipers Weird. They all play
pipes and we were treated to a lively
set of French tunes and then a Swedish tune. They must be well
travelled! Here's hoping they come
again. |

Pat & Kevin
were next up and tonight sang Dylan's 'Farewell Angelina' and then the
classic 'Lover Man'. |

Dave Donohoe playing in open G
sang 'Back To The Country' (complete with bottleneck) and then 'Life's
Ever Changing Days'. |

It was back to the 30s for
John Campbell with his two blues songs. First was Elmore
James' 'It Hurts Me Too' and then Robert Johnson's 'Come
On In My Kitchen'. |

Ben Yeowart
began with his self-penned 'Tricks' and he then sang - as
you've never heard it before - the Beatles song 'Eleanor Rigby'. Even
our MC was lost for words as to how to describe it! |

Tonight
Dave Anderson
played two self-penned songs 'I Did It All For Love' and
'Northumberland'. Don't forget, Dave is our next Spotlight on 18th
May. |

Peter Murphy ended the evening
for us with 'Bogie's Bonnie Belle', 'The First Time Ever I Saw Your
Face, and 'She Moved Through The Fair'. What we didn't know was this
may be his last time at Ashington! He's on the move down to Cheshire.
He will be sorely missed! Good luck Peter. |

| So, another great
night. There were 14 acts, 28 songs and tunesets and
all for less than the price of a pint! Singers, Musicians & Poets
nights are held on the 1st Thursday of
every month, and there's more of the same but with extended Spotlight sets on the
3rd Thursday. |
|
More artists, more music, more of
everything
Another great night... |
