Lee's father passed away a few days ago and the funeral service took place at the Crematorium, followed by a get together at a pub in Gayton, near Northampton.
The band turned up to offer Lee support and we played a few songs.
It was great to let rip and play some different songs and play different instruments. Willie played drums for most of the set but Richard (our keyboard player) demonstrated his versatility on guitar (& lead vocals), bass and drums. Mike played bass and I sang and played rhythmn guitar.
When not touring, Lee and Richard play in Fred Chase's band and he joined us on stage for a few songs
Marian (aka Nina) sang a great version of "River deep mountain high" and the set ended with Marian and Fred singing "Brown Eyed Girl"
I'm certain that Lee's dad would have enjoyed his send off.
