Sorry to hear that John - I know how much work you put in to keep it going.
Friends in Jazz
So sad that the club has had to end its run. But many, many thanks to John for keeping it alive for so long, and introducing us to so many different artists / bands that we would almost certainly have missed. Thanks again John.
Sad news. Thanks for all your hard work and dedication John and Jimmy Charlton before you. It was always much appreciated by the musicians and those who came along - something to be very proud of. Roly
Sorry to hear that John, and thanks for the gigs at Ashington!!
Emma
Very sad news that will leave a large chasm in the heart of northeast jazz & for those of us who love this little oasis of musical escapism.
PADDY.
