(Review taken from Derry's Facebook Post) What a great joy it was to welcome David Starr & Erik Stucky to The Woodman Folk Club. These two mega-artistes, all the way from the USA, put on a show that was truly awesome. Presenting beautifully crafted songs, skilfully played, and expertly delivered by two of America’s finest musicians. A warm and friendly approach, together with an intuitive sense of humour, demonstrated how years of experience underpinned an authentic, impressive stage-presence resulting in a genuinely delightful show. Stunning! To open, NTP3 burst onto the stage and provided us with an energised set of delightful songs composed by friends, folk-stars and even one or two originals. Absolutely no expense was paid for the stage props, but the madcap humour was indeed, priceless. Keep up the good work! MC Bryn, (Bryn Phillips), was our jovial Master of Ceremonies, who’s experience, tolerance and sense of playfulness served to guide things along, seamlessly. Our thanks also to Dick Woodhouse our on-the-spot soundman, Mr Gary and Mr John, on all things AV and to the Techy-up/Techy-down teams. You are all stars. Mega-thanks to The Ashwood Marine Staff, guys and girls, who tirelessly supply us with hot/cold/alcoholic beverages, crisps, chocolate, cobs and host the Woodman Folk Club every Friday. Angels with beer pumps!!! |
