A Saturday which was like a Sunday...

Up very late indeed...



..and so, no real time to do much before exiting and driving over to Broughton to pick up Paul for the drive out to Roslin...

Our final rehearsal before next Saturday's performance...


We learned "The In Crowd" and added it to the set - we played it four times, along with another 23 of the 49 songs across the three sets...

Discussions over biscuits at half time (after 2hrs 15) - a rebellion against the "upbeat" version of Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" was disappointing...


We ploughed on for another hour...


...and I noted the settings which may stand us in good stead at the soundcheck next week...




Then, to my mum's and noting what was needed to be shopped for...


I let her see her garden...


I offered her the chance to go and sit in it...

"I don't sit in the garden" was the response...

She may well have added "but I do like a snowball"...


Oh well...

Home and Anne went off to Tesco, returning with tasty tea items...





Yowsah!!


The shelf awaits repair tomorrow...


Late on, edited today's session and consigned 9 songs (35 mins) to the "reserve list", taking all three sets down to the requisite 45 minutes...

And so these, from our poster, will no longer have their work featured...

Roxy Music
Neil Young
Pink Floyd
Bob Dylan
Elton John
Lou Reed

Not to worry...

Highlight of the Day: Anne's steak (and rehearsing)...
