Happy New YEAR - Onwards & UP!

22/1/2022

 
A second, equally tough year for me, the music scene, and hospitality, but we survived, and welcome 2022, hopeful as ever - despite many life knocks!  And here's one of my highlights from 2021, after encountering a London Film Student in Bletchley, Milton Keynes.  Added to my New Channel Playlist, I've called "Plucky's Documentaries & Interviews", & av. on Web Page HD YT 9.
Quarterly Blog Update on LemonRock as ever, proffers more detail, but I delightfully secured & concluded my year with a NYE Gig @ 'Three Fyshes Restaurant & Bar,' Turvey, Beds. Despite Omicron & Gov Measures nearly forcing it to be pulled - due to many cancellations!  However, we all made compromises to 'get it away', and I did my best to Entertain those who braved 'the backdrop'; playing non-stop 4 & 1/2 hrs! A new Plucky record! 💖 tphx

7/10/2019

 
15 days - busked in 8 Cities/Towns en route; Northampton, Carlisle, Stirling, Aviemore, Aberdeen, Dundee, Newcastle, and Leicester. Spending quality time with 35/40 friends & family along the way, many of whom; fed, watered, & sheltered this 'auld' Haggis.. which incl. a birthday treat, visiting Hadrian's Wall & Fort in Cumbria, thanks to long-time friend Jeff Dixon. PERFECT! :)

Far too many highlights to mention, however, Carlisle/Cumbria surprisingly surpassed ALL expectations; they generously & warmly supported Plucky's busking, & Brampton Open Mic performances 1 wk L8r - lotta love here!  THANKS!

​However, it was in Aberdeen, where I busked twice that The Plucky Haggis received an amazing, & extraordinarily detailed gift & card; re Plucky's Worthy Originals!  Few pics on this site, but full detail av. on my FB Tour & Superfan Album post.  Hopefully, I'll make two UK Tours in 2020, & perhaps include Wales!  tphx

'Twas a fabulous day, superb having so many kind & generous locals stop a while enjoying a slice of my 4+ hr. non-stop live performance of Originals & Covers.  Relaxing in the sunshine within the circle around me; in deckchairs Intu had laid-on, sat on the walling, or on the AstroTurf eating pizza!  Just chillin', while the non-stop river of life streamed on by, going about it's business through the malls. Just PERFECT! tphx

Summer - equals - Festivals!

27/7/2018

 
After two fabulous summer pub gigs, and my first wedding (2 hrs in idyllic surroundings), I'm ready for a few festivals, aren't you!  Then join me for some of Plucky's Worthy Originals & Fab Covers :)

First up, Swan Fest (tomorrow) Sat 28th Jul. An hour of Plucky 4/5pm in the small village of Stewkley, raising funds for PTSD RESOLUTION.
 I'll be keeping an eye out for 'Britain's Favourite Landlord', though Al doesn't run The Swan Pub - YET! :D 
Picture
Aug. 18th Legion of Rhythm, RB Legion, Newport Pagnell, MK (my 6th consecutive year) & my latest performance there to date: 22:15 - 22:45.  Live Music Midday - Midnight! Raising money for Willen Hospice. It's always a great event with loads of talented musos; singers, songwriters & bands!

Finally, Fenny Poppers 2018 (Sun 19th 11-6 pm).
 I'm delighted to be asked back again; it's dynamic annual event nr Bletchley, MK.  Fenny Stratford High Street is closed for Live Music Festival & Entertainment. Plucky's Main stage 'Originals': 11:20 - 11:40, followed by Plucky's Popular Covers 13:00 - 13:30 on the Acoustic stage, t'other end.  It's more up-front-and-personal, and I love it. 

So heed doon, grab a hay-bale, and enjoy some spicy summer RARE BREED Haggis!  Cheers! tphx
