Welcome to this months newsletter. A very busy month coming up! * Blues Kitchen @ Le Cafe Parisien * Thanks to everyone who came to Le Cafe Parisien on September 2nd, despite there being a number of competing events in town that evening, we had a full house, we might just a have fitted in an extra table for two, but you would have been bumping elbows with the table next door! They are planning more of these so I'll let you know more when I'm back there! * French Tour * I'm off on my tour off France next week, leaving on Wednesday night and driving down to the south of France during Thursday, I've then got three dates to play on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday, gradually working my way up the country till I return home on Monday. The Saturday night is a private party but I'll be playing public dates on Friday 16th at 'Bar Mary John', Lamalous-les-Bains and Sunday 18th at Dixieland Cafe Verteuil-sur-Charente. I'm planning on taking the minidisc recorder and looking to come back with enough material for a Live In France CD. * Walker Broad Videos * The Walker Broad duo had a great time playing at The 11ht Southsea Folk & Roots Festival this year and we've got a couple of videos posted taken during the gig. With a couple more in the pipeline. (Probably not till I get back from France though) Bordering On Bedlam http://youtu.be/TxCpesV3CLo If Can Do http://youtu.be/U1nDSSJRhfI Rehearsals with the band version of Walker Broad continue with our first outing being on Friday 14th October at The NBE CSA Club as part of the Closing celebration of "Mental Health Everyone's Business" a week of events based around World Mental Health Day on the 10th of October.
