Summer’s End 2009 Day Two Part One

Day 1 of Summer's End ended with yours truly seeing more of Glouchester than I had intended to. My sat nav was refusing to locate my hotel and I ended up having to find the M5 and then following my printed directions from there. Something which added an extra hour to my already late night. It did not help that the people in the next room having just retired from the bar decided to continue the partying for an additional hour.

Summer's End 2009 Day One

I have to confess that I did not know what to expect from Summer's End. I am fairly new to the whole prog scene, you see. As a child of the 70s I missed out on the first wave of progressive bands like King Crimson, Yes and Genesis. It was only a couple of years ago when a colleague, who happened to play in a prog band, peeked my interest in exploring this genre of music. His band, Tinyfish, was due to play at Summer's End 2007, and he played me a couple of tracks of their Summer's End promotional cd. Since then I have been hooked. Thanks Rob.

Darwin's Radio / Jump @ the Peel

Back to the Peel for another night of Prog ... First up was Jump with John Dexter Jones, perhaps England's best front man.
