29 Aug 2022The Racehorse Inn, TauntonThe Racehorse Inn in TauntonWell, Don (drummer) has had some memorable birthdays but this was up there with the best he reckoned, The weather helped us again and we were under a fab cover out the back of the pub in a huge seating area. We were up against Rag 'n' Bone man at Vivary Park but it didn't stop us getting rammed with a appreciative knowledgeable audience from the off. One slight negative, and I hate to mention it, but there was a moment when a guy stumbled and crashed into Andy's mic stand and almost took Andy's teeth out, luckily Andy's experience over 35 odd years gave him quick reactions and a disaster was averted, although his mic stand was damaged and we also found out later the inebriated individual had stamped on the monitor lead and bent it. It was a shame and happened in 2 seconds. The rest of the 1hour 59mins and 58 seconds was absolutely fantastic. Everyone sang and danced to all the Bon Scott era AC/DC and the hits of ZZ Top. A lot of compliments after the gig and a few enquiries too. (Look out for us at the Black Horse in 2023). The staff were wonderful and Chris, the new landlord was very helpful indeed and is turning the Racehorse Inn into an amazing live venue. A special thanks to the interval entertainer, Ellie Hogg, a fire dancer who was amazing. All in all a monster gig to celebrate Don's birthday with a bang. It was a fantastic night.Hope to see you at our next gig, which is on Saturday 22nd October 2022 at The Lord Nelson, Norton Sub Hamdon - details on Lemonrock at:https://www.lemonrock.com/gig.php?id=778656Don
