Competition

Thanks for all competition entries. I was pleasantly surprised by how many people sent me suggested set lists. My favourite was sent in by Mags. I especially liked Mags list because she didn't expect me to play some of the heavier songs on an acoustic classical guitar lol. 

1. Speak down the wires
2. Poppy
3. Green Lights
4. Six white horses
5. Evening over rooftops
6. All I wanna be
7. Hotel Room
8. For Dr Spock 2
9. House of Turnabout
10.Red Star

So Mags, if you email me your postal details I will send you the signed ONE cd and a little extra something.

That song is sweet. The story is a useful reminder that there is some times a course of action we can take when a situation is challenging. We just have to think simple and look for it.
Happy new year to all.

Well Tony, I 'aint gonna play "oh you crazy boy". I really don't like it and it's not one of mine. From my perspective there are a few songs scattered through the EBB output that were included, primarily, to keep the writers onside. Fillers, in my opinion that helped to keep the peace.
Why can't somebody love me and call me a liar are not really suited to an acoustic rendition or are they? We'll see lol.

Hi Rob
Your story reminded me why I do this job.
Pauline was a day patient at a unit where I occasionally do extra shifts. She is a flower child in her late sixties, complete with flowery kaftans & pigtails tied with ribbons. Pauline cherishes her old acoustic guitar & knows three chords. She always came to my music sessions & played her three chords at whatever point she fancied. I never took it on myself to show her any more, I don't think she could have coped with the pressure. Over the years, Pauline came less & less to the day centre, but every Christmas I still get a card addressed to 'Tony with the guitar' at my current unit. I always get a full update on her year/family members etc.
Just before Christmas, Karen & I left our local supermarket & headed towards the car park. I heard a voice which I instantly recognised. Pauline was sat on a seat with the warmest smile I have ever seen. I gave her a big hug & we chatted for what seemed like hours. She reminded me about the music sessions of long ago. Pauline said that playing her guitar with me & my kindness was what gave her the power to cope in her world. I hope to visit her soon at her new accommodation & play some songs with her & her fellow residents. No amount of money could replace the warm feeling I get when I think of all the Paulines out there who may have got something positive out of what I do.

Tony H.

ps. message to Tony from Lincoln...my second favourite Harvest label recording artists (the Pretty Things) are at Butlins Skegness in January. See you there?

Just wanted to say that I will be playing a few more songs than is on the list at the FDPFAFDW shows.
It is a good list though and lots of people came up with an almost identical list.

To Tony H

Pity there isn't one of you for every Pauline you sound like a fab guy. I wasn't going to post on here anymore but had to comment on your story of Pauline who sounds such a great character and I am sure she has enriched your life but equally you hers. People like you restore my faith in the human race. All the best for 2011 and please don't change your job you are amazing! Ruth X
