Message From The Last Thursday Club, Swineshead, June 2020

Hello again to all supporters of The Last Thursday Live Club

Trusting that you are all well , masked, gloved and rejecting calls to 

sacrifice yourselves for ' the economy '

We're still locked down here-  and remaining so until we see a full 

House of Commons on the telly.

Of course, that means no music club for the foreseeable future- so we'll 

all be deprived of the delightful ' Homity '. However, here are 

some samples by Michelle and Ian to keep us in touch with what we're 

missing;

The infection rate being what it is it's highly unlikely that we'll 

actually be open for any of the 2020 programme -  so we've advised all 

our booked artists to fill their dates elsewhere if they can-  but we'll 

be staying on the side of caution ourselves- no matter what spurious 

advice Downing Street emits.  We're still out in the street on Thursday 

evenings, banging our saucepans for the NHS while the government is 

working to reintroduce hospital parking fees and fines for nurses and 

doctors.  We'll have something to say about that, no doubt, in words and 

song when circumstances permit.

So-  stay safe, make yo-yos from your tape measures-   and we'll see you 

when we can.

Message From Peterborough Jazz Club June 2020

Message From Peterborough Jazz Club June 2020

Dear Friends,

 Firstly, I do hope that you have all kept safe over the time of the pandemic, although no doubt many of us have had a difficult time with all the restrictions and problems  we have all been dealing with. In addition, a significant number of us being over 70 years old also has brought additional issues to deal with. 

We have, of course, kept in contact with our new venue, the Vegan Restaurant Jazz Bar in Westgate Arcade and recently I spoke to them regarding the current situation re social distancing and also we discussed the reduction to 1 metre in the near future. Unfortunately, even with the reduction to 1 metre, it will not be possible for us to promote any concerts at the Jazz Bar, upstairs at the Vegan Restaurant, for the rest of this year at least. As some of you know, the capacity of the Jazz Bar is not much more than 50 and we would normally be looking to almost sell out for most of the concerts there. Of course, with a 1 metre social distance, it will be impossible for us to get anywhere near break even point and until that changes we are, like many clubs, in a very difficult situation.

So, we will all have to make do with radio and our own jazz collection for the meantime. 

We will keep you updated of course regarding our Club and when we can look to resume concerts. In the meantime, I and the rest of the committee hope you keep well and can enjoy the summer months ahead.

The Doobie Brothers 'Listen To The Music' Remake

Rolling Stone Magazine reports that The Doobie Brothers have shared a socially distanced take on their 1972 classic, “Listen to the Music.”

The performance features Tom Johnston, Patrick Simmons, John McFee and John Cowan, all of whom recorded their parts from their respective homes. Without any percussion or drums, this particular rendition of “Listen to the Music” has an even breezier and lighter feel than the original. Not that it’s without any depth or complexity; McFee’s banjo and Cowan’s bass tumble and rumble beneath the guitars, and all four Doobies combine for some characteristically soaring harmonies.

At the end of the performance, Johnston shares a quick message encouraging fans to donate to the hunger relief organization, Feeding America.
