BEN ANDREWS will DEFINITELY be at THE BULFROG on THURSDAY

Hi all, 

The good news is that BEN ANDREWS will  be appearing at The Bullfrog Blues 
Club this  Thursday (7th October), after all!! 

And to make things even better, it's a double header with CLAUDE BOURBON!
!!!!!!

A true United Nations gig! 

Here's a message from John Adams, Ben Andrews' U.K tour agent, which should 
makes things much clearer.....

From John ADAMS:
"Why is life so complicated?.......Don't answer that, it was purely 
rhetorical.
Thank you, the many who sent their best wishes to Ben for a speedy recovery.
Ben has actually been in a clinic near Heathrow Airport & has contacted me 
this morning.  He is fully recovered & wishes to continue his tour with those 
venues that can accommodate him so as not to let so many fans down.

I have spoken to as many venues as I can & so far most have re-booked him as 
so many people expressed their disappointment.

This has been a difficult time for both Ben & I, but I hope we can salvage 
something from this....many of you know that when Ben is on-form there is nobody 
in the World who can touch him.  He says he has his old energy back & is 
raring to go.

This is, I suppose, Rock & Roll by any other name & I'm sure you will all 
have your own recollections in the past of musical geniuses needing extra support 
in their careers. Right now I'm giving my support to Ben."
John Adams


And so am I, and I hope everyone who attends The Bullfrog will join me in 
this.

Special thanks must go to Claude Bourbon, who is also lending his support to 
Ben by his magnanimous gesture of sharing the stage with him.

THIS WILL BE A MAGNIFICENT EVENING - DON'T MISS IT, WHATEVER YOU DO!!!!!!

Don't be late for this full evening of  the best blues around from two of the 
very best players on the scene!!!!!!!!



Doors open at 8 p.m. at The Bullfrog Blues Club, South Parade Pier, SOUTHSEA.
