Lovenite was awesome! Special thanks go out to Rob Thompson who did an excellent job on drums – I was introduced to him about 20 mins before we went on – and Vicky Lines (?) who stepped in to do some vocals. Here is the set list roughly as it happened:
Only The Lonely – Cormac vox & banjo; Kev guit
Misirlou – Cormac banjo; Kev guit; Rob drums
Love Removal Machine Cormac vox & banjo; Kev bass; Rob drums
No Surprises – Kev vox & guit; Cormac banjo
Eye Of The Tiger – Cormac vox & banjo; Kev vox & guit
Chain Reaction – Kev vox; Cormac banjo;
Hello – Cormac vox & banjo; Kev bass; Rob drums
Public Image – Cormac vox & banjo; Kev bass; Rob drums
Don’t Leave Me This Way – Cormac vox & bass; Kev vox & guit; Rob drums
Groove Is In The Heart – Special guest Vicky Lines on vocals; Cormac banjo; Kev bass; Rob drums.
Karma Chameleon – Kev vox & guit; Cormac vox & banjo; Rob drums
Gimme All Your Lovin – Kev vox & guit; Cormac banjo; Rob drums
Waterloo – Kev vox & guit; Vicky vox; Cormac banjo; Rob drums
Encore: Hallelujah – Cormac vox & banjo; Kev guit
For me the highlights were the audience singing along to our simple version of Chain Reaction (plus me being able to remember all the chords to that one – it’s so complicated!), the audience barndancing to our hillbilly rendition of Karma Chameleon and the rawk of Gimme All Your Lovin.
Thanks for all who came down. Looks like I’m back in the 12 Bar again for St Patrick’s Day! (To be confirmed.)
