Eddi, Steady, Go!
I drove up to Barrow this evening through horrible rain and hail to meet my Cumbrian pal Mel and attend a gig by the magnificent Eddi Reader.
Although I was once dumped unceremoniously after a Fairground Attraction gig back in 1988 (the words "It's got to be-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee perfect, it's got to be-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee-ee worth it" still ringing in my ears...) I've never held Eddi personally responsible and have seen her play since, when circumstances have allowed!
Tonight she was on hilarious form and treated us gig-goers to many an entertaining anecdote amidst some sensational singing. Unfortunately the venue enforced a very strict 'No Photography' policy but I did manage to snap this shot of her after the show...
And I've been singing Willie Stewart ever since!
