Very positive vibes there Gerry.
Knew you'd love it. As I said before many times the Grove community is special and unique where everybody is bonded together through music and mutual friendship and respect. Being a Grover is a special honour and age, musical generation and taste makes no difference. We are one special community. Long may it continue.🎸🎸✌✌❤❤ |

Cheers Brian, you said it. Its the nearest I've coming to knowing the meaning of a "hive mind". I actually feel brilliant today. The " afterglow" of a brilliant, brilliant night is stopping any bit of an oul hangover that might be trying to develop...

Great stuff Gerry. Special nights alright. Ive said it before but in my view two key ingrediants to reunions. Great music and great people. Add to that the venue and its a winner.

Pat, it was even better than I had hoped. A truly spectacular night, Mel looked after me the whole evening. Had an absolute ball, couldn't believe it when it was time to finish. I finally met Sean Duffy and Joey the lips. Nearly all too much to take in. Had a few words with Cecil at the end as well to cap it all. Brian, Lyn, Jen of course. And my new Mod pal Mark. Various other lovely ladies and gents. Discovered I could still duckwalk (well, a bit
) What a night...to be continued!

Lol Poguey - there's a variation in the middle, where I stand on one leg, Ian Anderson style, and wave me flute about! That usually depends on the number of drinkies consumed to that point though !!!

Agree, agree, agree with everything you guys said. I actually love doing out the playlists. Every single band I've been in I looked for the job of doing the set lists - normally the other lads were delighted someone volunteering to do the "admin", but I think the order songs are played can be as important (if you get it right) as the actual songs themselves! Weird I know ...
Gotta put this down for a while, work to be done, me to do it, wifely inspection in a couple hours!!! I'll read what's come in since I've been typing this, but reply later this evening ok lads .. |

Agree Sean.
In fact you don't have to talk at all but once you're into the show the conversation flows naturally. After all the presenters are not strangers but fellow Grovers. And you guys in the studio make it very relaxing. I loved doing the shows I did. |
