First up is Dave Bell/Popeye & The Pixies/China White at The Virginia Ash Pub.
Losing my Virginia Ash-inity got off to a good start from a very enjoyable acoustic set from Dave Bell. This writer particually enjoyed his rendition of the classic "Stand By Me". Plus don't tell anyone, but I did enjoy his version of Journeys "Don't Stop Believin'."
Up next was Popeye And The Pixies. Who immediatley bursted into "Good Times Bad Times" and If you don't who that is by you have either been living under a rock for the past 60/70 years and if not you shouldn't even be reading this blog! NO! Please don't leave this page, I love You Really. Personal highlights for me was The Cure's "Boys Don't Cry" and the most intense "White Room". Having seen this band numerous times, I can easily say this has been the best yet. Hey Lewis! Andy Frasser called; he wants his fingers back!
Sadly I had only enough time to watch one song of China White. But boy o' boy was it worth it. An awesome to start to a set with the second Cream track of the night-Sunshine Of Your Love, and with new bass player, this was brilliant! Bruce & Clapton would be proud!
Well done Virginia Ash Pub for putting on a splendid event!
