I'm very pleased to say I managed to make it along for the second of these shows. The gig was great, the venue wonderful, the audience friendly, and the turns fantastic. Many thanks to Ian Shaw for arranging it and I only wish I could do more to help his endeavours in helping those desperately in need in Calais. And many thanks to all the artists for being wonderful too.
