Tewkesbury- Tuesday



Monday was a day off and I spent the day updating this blog, answering emails etc and just lazing around. We drove over to Tewskesbury and arrived in good time. Smiffy and his team made us very welcome and we were soon ready to play. One feature of any tour is the amount of time spent hanging around and this tour is no exception. We sat in the dressing room playing songs on my guitar and listening to CDs until curtain up.
I don't know if it was the day off, or Lee's bereavement but we were a little below par and nothing we tried lifted us. The crowd was quiet as well so it was all a bit subdued. If I recall correctly, the other Tuesday nights have been a bit quieter than the other nights, so maybe that's it.
Cozy played a different vintage drum kit for a change. This one is blue and white and may well be the kit used by Mud's drummer in the 1970s.
We made good time packing up- once again thanks to the stage crew for their help.
Next stop Swindon
