Absolutely worship Mr Holland.  One of the reasons I play the piano!  Sounds like you had a great night Maggie!!

Yes, I dont play the piano, but draw a lot of inspiration from Jools ... glad you enjoyed yourself.

Fantastic.... I love Jools too.  Saw him and Jamie Cullem  last year at the Faynol Festival.  What a night  North Wales was rockin'   ;D  8)  ;D

Dragged Hubby to see him a few years back, hubby had no idea who he was or what he was going to see! (He loved it BTW!) we had Tunbridge Wells rocking that night....I bet a few were "disgusted"  ;D ;D ;D

Ooh I'm pleased you had a good night. I'd like to go and see Jools Holland.

A bit of name dropping...

I once booked Jools for the opening of a venue in Nottingham. £8,000 for 2 x 20 min sets. Halfway through the first set he decided he didn't like the way the piano was positioned and refused to play anymore.

I also know Roy Wood isn't dead as I see him out drinking regularly at a pub in Derby.

maggie, was he playing with the Rhythm and Blues Orchestra ? Superb night out, kids took me to see them as a b'day present last year. Best night out I've had in years.    {:¬)#

Bet you had a great night - had tickets to see Jools Holland with Rhythm and Blues Orchestra a couple of years ago in York but I got chickenpox and couldn't go - gutted :)

[AikenDrum]

My, My Delilah, what a shame ! Why can't kids keep their illnesses to themselves ?  lol

[Meg]

Yes he was with his band. What is our Roy doing in Derby he lives ova here at W-ton. Hav spotted him in the pub too thought he could hav given us a lift home!! Great audience participarion. Just a joy good old fashioned proper entertainment. The fun they where having on the stage shone out. Sorry djbrenton that he didn't like your piano.

I could tell you a naughty story about Roy Wood when he appeared in a leisure resort about 7yrs ago, naughty boy .  But i can`t  in case  i get sued, truth mind you, and Samantha don`t you dare . ;D ;D ;D.

[Delilah]

Don't know Aiken, but I looked compltely ridiculous covered in red spots, I just hope the opportunity to see him live comes my way again soon!

I met Jools once. When he was doing The Tube with Paula Yates. I was about 14. I asked for his autograph and he wrote a big long message with best wishes and such like. I was chuffed to bits.  Paula was really nice too. She signed a load of posters for me. She was due to have her first baby that night and she was sat in the foyer of the television studio with her feet up on the desk. I thought she was so cool! I shed a tear when I heard she had died.

Lost the autographs now unfortunately.
