Heskin Hall Steam Fair Gig

Last night Creeping Bentgrass played the Steam Fair at Heskin Hall, Chorley - our 5th year at this event.

This year Jack, the organiser, had wanted to try something a bit different to keep people on the grounds longer and we started playing around 5:30pm, finishing at 8:00pm to be followed by another band.

With another gig today at Myerscough College's Open Day this fitted well with us as we were home by 11:00pm instead of the usual 2:00am. Particularly good as have to be onsite at Myerscough before 9:00am this morning! If you're in the north Preston area, come for a listen - we will be playing from 11:00am through until 4:00pm unless my finger ends drop off!

But bright-eyed and bushy-tailed of course with only a slightly sore throat - I think I've been swallowing my tonsils all night from the feel of it!

Oh yes, for all you steam fans out there, here's Little Dorothy. A picture of Big Dorothy some other day for all you fans of big dorothy's...
