Michele had to do it on her own tonight

as Romeo was locked in a basement far away recording some new tracks,

but she got us Roisin McNeill

and of course Michele played a set 

 and then James Jackman and the Blue Moon brought the evening to an end 

but at the very end everybody joined in. 

Tuesday Night in Camden (at the Monarch)

She Makes War

And as it was my first day off in almost a month I went to another concert, where I saw Kit Downes (on photo) and Tom Challenger perform their new LP Vyamanikal (for church organ and Saxophone)

followed by Whiskey Moonface performing their new album 

An excellent evening in a bookshop

 Gabi Garbutt & the Illuminations

and George St. Clair and the Band (this is one of the band)

Chastity Brown

 played the Green Note tonight

 (and I was rather chuffed with this mid-concert portrait of her, so I added this one too)

Ruth Theodore opened up for her 

(and just to keep things even here is a mid-concert portrait of her too.) 

Having a fun evening

with the Parkin brothers at the Harrison, listening to the Brazilian Roda jam session ft. Choro Alvorada 

and while they were on a break I was allowed to take a peek into the basement at the Harrison and listen to a few songs by the Assembly Line. 

A Balkan night

 with Mr. Morski from Bulgaria 

 and The Raka Balkan Band

from all over the place, but there were so many of them on stage I can't post them all here, so you will have to find my other photos elsewhere... 

Back at the Green Note

with Rebecca Hollweg

and Mean Mary. 

Another Woodburner night in the wonderful Dalston Eastern Curve Gardens

 with Li Alba

 Max Baillie

and the smiling faces of Choro Alvorada.

Dolls

 East

The Breaks

and 

Ed Strong at Acklam Village.

The only one from

 The Bloom to show up, but luckily he could play us a few tunes on his own 

(imagine if only the triangle guy showed up)

Jimmy Regal managed to bring along his Royals (but I'll only show him here)

 And even though they were Drunk On Tuesday

at least they all managed to get down to Acklam by Saturday.

(But of course the afternoon just wouldn't happen without Wills)

Support
