Ron was away this week and he missed a crackin' night. The place was old-style rammed from the off with a virtually full play list. Others arrived later and we went through to the close, with host Simon asking me to finish off the show. Regular Dave (pictured) really surprised me with a rare Neil song - the title track from 1999's CSNY album Looking Forward. I debuted a new song written at the weekend. Host Simon joined me on the final medley adding some hot solos to the 12-bar riffs.......and we finished spot on midnight! There were several Neil/CSN lovers in the audience and we sang on unplugged for the next hour. The Habit at its best.

Wednesday 7 August:

The Elderly Brothers returned to The Habit on a warm night in York. Plenty of folk were out for a good time and the Wednesday open mic seemed to fit the bill as the bar was full for most of the night. There were enough players too, with just 3 getting a second sitting at the mic. Regular Dave gave us Stephen Stills' Johnny's Garden from 1972's Manassas album and Graham Nash's Teach Your Children. The Elderly's finished off the show with some upbeat numbers, which were well received by the excitable but attentive audience.
