Re: Sir Terry Wogan

Sir Terry was a national treasure and a nice man.I have fond memories of drinking with him in the BBC after we shared an appearance in 77 on TOP OF THE POPS. He with Floral Dance and I with HEARTSONG. He was so easy going an...

Re: THANKYOU.

Lemmy RIP.
I was sad to hear of the passing of Lemmy, one of the great characters in rock.
I bumped into him at a music show years ago.
He always had a twinkle in his eye!
RIP buddie.

Re: Your Health
Gordon, My first time posting here, but I've been a fan for years. I don't know if you'll remember playing in the Lobby Bar in Cork City in the early 90s. I went to see you and we spoke before and after your concert and you signed a cd for me with a message to my son and daughter who were babies at...

Re: A possible GG guitar?
Hi, I bought this guitar a while back and have been told that it may be one of Gordon's guitars, I've spoken to guitar cavern in Worcester and they do remember the guitar but can not verify its authenticity, I've searched high and low for information about the brand and even with a serial number ha...

Re: Announcement Sept 2015
Hi Gordon, A bit behind the news I know, but just to say how completely shocked Jane and I were to hear about your diagnosis. Thinking back, it would certainly explain the tiredness you talked about in the bar at The Fleece last April. Puts my broken leg in the shade, says he attempting a little li...

Re: Dodo's Dream
Hello, I love Dodo's Dream and have had the priviledge to hear it live on three occassions - every time I had goosbumps, but the first time (in St. Ives in 2011) will always be THE live version for me. The recordings with the full band: my favourite is the version from The Band Live 1981. The Dodo'...
