Mojo - Classic Rock

My apologies folks, just got time to apologise for lack of updates here.
Yes at last I have got off my backside and put other work to one side to try to catch up here!

September – What an excellent month with some great fun gigs! Well – we thought so! No doubt we would be told if otherwise!

• 4th – We visited the Arrow in Yeovil. What an excellent venue! New to us and a great place to play.
• 5th – Excise House, Weymouth. Always a pleasure to visit this venue.
• 11th – The York Inn , Exmouth. This place is alway busy busy!! Great people and great fun!
• 18th – Winyards Gap – between Crewkerne and Dorchester. Toby and Michelle made us welcome and the locals are a great bunch of folks – look forward to going back on Christmas Eve!
• 19th – Golden Lion, Weymouth. What a night!! Not sure what got into the folks down here – we had a great night! Busy busy!!!!
• 26th – The Squirrel Inn at Laymore on the Somerset Dorset border. A new one on us and a private party! great fun and excellent venue to play!

Well – that’s September gigs and we had a fun month. Many thanks to all involved!

Well, Saturday 29th August 2009 came and what a day!! The weather was fantastic – not too hot and certainly not cold and what’s more it was NOT raining as it did last year!!

Hobo Jones

Ska Wars

Bands performing during the day were as per the T-shirt order! (web links where found)

• The Crew – and I believe two of the members were married at Hewishstock, then went on to play their set!! (unfortunately we were too late to see them) Wish you both all the best for the future!
• Aiden Simpson – a young man with a great future with his own songs, I believe
• Barry Paul as Elvis – always an excellent set!
• Mojo, yup – tha’s us!
• Bill Smarme and The Bizness – great new lyrics to some well known songs!
• Hobo Jones and The Junk Yard Dogs. Get along to see them!! Totally “off the wall” and brilliant!
• Ska Wars. The energy and enthusiasm these guys have is unbelievable! Again – if you gat the chance – go see them!
• Final act – Martha’s Vineyard – They have been at Hewishstock for a number of years and I don’t know how many! (I’m sure they may tell me). They have a huge following in the area and they were well in evidence here! It seems that this is their last appearance at Hewishstock. Sorry to hear that guys.

Finally – just want to thank all organisers for the excellent day – and arranging such good weather. (Pity about the Sunday!!) Also thanks to Ben (from Martha’s) for sound engineering – excellent job! Same goes to anyone connected with the running of the day!
