THE Friday Boys are a disparate group of men spread across Tyneside who meet once a week - 'always on a Friday' - to talk about the arts, raise a glass to recently departed heroes and villains and, at the evening's end, down a whisky or two. The FBs have only one golden rule - talk of the working week is strictly off-limit.

Tonight's setlist (well nearly)
At The Habit, York
One More Time Falling Rescue Her Tears (debut performance) I Am A Pilgrim Tell Me Why Blackbird
An amazing night. They liked Rescue. Completely silenced the place with Blackbird - I'll never forget it.
Go with your instinct next time and give 'em Sexual Healing - or better still: You Made Me Love You (I Didn't Want To Do It) - the Gene Krupa version, of course.

ReplyDeleteI prefer the Frankie Vaughan version.
ReplyDeleteThe album version is unbeatable. He shouild never have attempted it live, it's like Macca messing with A Day in the Life.
ReplyDelete"Completely silenced the place with Blackbird..." (Naked singers tend to have that effect on an audience.)
ReplyDeleteOnly if they've got what it takes.
