Piracy in the Pub
On Sunday last I was invited out to play at The Golden Fleece (an epic and excitin’ notion) by the ever glorious Misk Hills Mountain Rambler. I thought I might just do the odd story and mainly feared being lulled into some singing which would have injured the ears of all. Instead the charming Will from I’m Not From London asked me if I’d like to compere! So I did, and read tales. In truth my compereing was mainly just berating hecklers and introducing the remarkable musicians with whom it was an honour to share the stage. So I thought I’d show ’em off to ye here. All photographs are by the omnipresent and omnimarvellous Daniel Whiston – check him out here.
