Title: Happy new year
Post by: Lucky_Lou on January 01, 2016, 04:21:15 PM
here is a bit of my New Years eve,,, oddly enough most of the "Band" are bikers .... if you count rice burners lol. Visit my U Tube channel for the Sutton Bank ride which was the joy of getting "Gertie" back on the road after an 18 month rebuild..

The bassist (Ralph) was a bit worse for wear by that time, I had to give him a slap on the head to get him started... we packed in about 3am I think we had a good night. My missus ended up playing the piano Les Dawson would have been proud of her...

Here is a clip from Wiki... for the benefit of those who don't know of Les,s work


He was a talented pianist but developed a gag in which he played a familiar piece such as Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata and then introduced hideously wrong notes (yet not destroying the tune) without appearing to realise, smiling unctuously and relishing the accuracy and soul of his own performance.
