Managed to catch you on-line displaying another one of your talents.
If I recall correctly, during conversations at the convention, you said you once did a research into old forgotten songs.
Any of these from the Roger Brook era you could probably entertain us with at the next convention?
Best Regards
Duncan

After seven hours filming over three days, I am more than a bit dissapointed that I was on for about three seconds without any billing! However I have been on lots before so I suppose I should not moan, and it was good for traveller education.
As regards songs from the Roger Brook era, the answer is loads of them, from the Napoleonic period and probably earlier. I will have to think a bit though.

And three years later the DW conventioners enjoyed the fruits of Nick having "a bit of a think" at the 2012 Convention (see that year's convention report for details). I missed out as I didn't attend my first convention until a year later.
However - I noticed that Nick Dow was advertised as performing at a venue quite close to where I live. So last night I went to see him in concert at a local folk club and I had a great night.
Nick's got a great voice - full, round, with a slight hint of gravel that is perfect for the folk genre. His humerous anecdotes were entertaining and full of human interest. I've never heard the songs before but they were beautiful. And Nick's guitarwork is equally beautiful.
I can't praise the evening enough - it was a great night. When he finished (at almost 11.30pm) the whole club was wanting more. If he's performing in your area you must go and see him.
Thanks Nick - where can we get details of future gigs?
