    Night on the town.

    Went for a night out with Mrs Bloke last night to watch my son's band playing at a local pub gig. It was a four band programme with David's lot bottom of the bill so therefore on first. Pub was packed despite 'Pendulum' playing to a full house at the '53 Degrees' venue across the street.


    The Band, half way through their set. Tom (Lead) Dan (Drums) Lawrence (Lead Vocals and Rhythm) David (Bass and Backing Vocals)


    David getting into it...


    After the set With David and Thomas, my eldest son.


    Mrs Bloke...


    Obviously I was wearing a Kilt otherwise I wouldn't be posting all this.

    Another band on the bill that I really enjoyed and are worth a mention are called "How's My Pop?". An excellent band from Lancaster.

    EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot to mention. Lots of positive comments about the Kilt although quite a few folk are getting used to me being kilted much of the time. Only one negative. Nothing I couldn't cope with.

    Looks like a successful night, good to hear people are getting used to seeing you in your kilt, from my experience that makes it much easier.

    Great pictures! I love the Jack Daniel's sign. Lancashire's quite a trip from Tennessee.

    Too bad the lads aren't interested in kilts, but good on you for supporting the band. I would have fallen off the stage in shock if my Dad had ever shown up to see me (from the "evidence of a misspent youth" file). Looks like a fine evening all around!
