Hi Ashwyn
Good to see you have got the new site up and running.
Will you be having a page where venues can advertise their gigs in the same way as you did on the old site?
Have a good Christmas

MARK BUTCHER BAND
Just to say this gig featuring Mark Butcher is hopefully the first of a regular monthly ‘blues’ nights at Crawley Football Club, Sussex, so any help, advice or suggestions regarding publicity would be much appreciated. As ever, it’s hardly a money making exercise, merely an attempt to add to the circuit for everyones benefit!

What a spectacular looking site, one of the best around! nice work! Thanks for all the many years of recognizing and spinning voodoohead productions artists Ashwyn, and also for assisting me in pitching new music through your excellent program. You have been extremely helpful in getting good blues music happening for everyone I work with, from Summer and the Sinners to the bluevoodoo and new artists the harpoonist and axe murderer and Sean Poluk, cheers and continued success!bryon
Thank you Bryon for your kind words. Greatly appreciated.
Hi Ashwyn
Love the new site and the radio shows. There’s not enough hours in the day to listen to what I want to listen to. I notice Ian Perkins asked about blues venues in the Colchester area. The Bull is a good venue and I believe the fabulous Joel Fisk has a jam night there.
Thanks Mike!
Believe me, even in retirement theer are never enough hours!
Thanks for the details of the Bull
