Hootenanny

Happy New Year...... yes new year come early for me, I went to the BBC's Jools Holland's Hootenanny last night, what a great show Sir Paul McCartney & Kylie Minogue, Eddie Floyd, Kaiser Chiefs, Mika, Madness, Kate Nash, Lulu, Ruby Turner, Duffy, Seasick Steve and an audiance of celebrity's including Lenny Henry, Dawn French, Rory Bremner, Kenny Logan, The Kumars, Bernie Ecclestone to Sir Peter Blake and many more.



The night Started with the arrival of DR Who's Tardis and the DR Who team....

Jool's Hollands Rhythm & Blues Orchestra with the legendary Rico Rodriguez & Courtney Pine played with Paul McCartney & Kylie
Minogue but the act of the night for me was Eddie Floyd 60's soul man, writer of “knock on wood” and a mean blues guitar from Seasick Steve.




Funniest thing of the night was watching little Sir Bernie Ecclestone, plus wife and 2 daughters, 3rd riches man in Briton looking pissed off sitting behind the ever Scottish Jackie Stewart.

I got abit of a giggle from Dawn French in the car park as she climbed over a taped off area, I shouted “you can't do that” whilst recreating her leap over the tape.
