Woodstock

















______________________________________


Speaking of Woodstock, here are some video's of that day
Alan Kaye as Joe Cocker
(inc The Wholigans at 5.15 on)
'A little help from my friends'




I'm missing a band or two, as I find the video I'll put it up.
I believe the crowd was around 20-30,000 and the vibe all day was surreal,and the comraderie between bands was just great..
I'm not really a hippy kind of guy but that particular event was as close to the real Woodstock I'll ever get to.
That was probably one of (if not THE best gigs we've ever played) unlike Mr.Townshend at the real woodstock, we actually enjoyed it.
Not that you can ever compare the two, but for me....I loved it and would do it again in a heartbeat.

Dublin






Irish Jack playing 'Happy Jack' at the academy in Dublin.



Here are few photo's from Mick (far right) in Dublin. I'll put the rest up asap.

As you can see Irish Jack got up and played guitar on 'Happy Jack' and even threw in a few windmills during the song, I guarantee you nobody anywhere else in the world has such a photo.
Jack had a blast as did we (including drinking guiness at the hotel till 5.30 in the morning!!!!! )
See all photo's on my space.
