I finally got around to sorting out my trip to the Great British Alternative Music Festival at Skegness (being held at the end of this month). The Rats are headling, but I noticed 'The Blockheads' on the line up.
Don't know much about the current Blockheads' line up - or if they have much to do with the band that was fronted by the late, great Ian Dury, but it made me think I should offer 'Hit Me With You Rythym Stick" on Somethign for the Weekend........
Hopefully see you at Skeggy??
Not seen Blockheads for a good while now but sadly Derek the Draw passed so they have a new front man, and I gather Norman is the playing more with Wilko than Blockheads of late so may not feature. I think Johnny T, Chas and Micky are still present but better a real follower confirms. If the lineup is half as tight as last time I saw them it’s a treat. Can’t vouch for the singer I’m afraid.
With one of the all time greatest bass lines!
