The performance of the Teresa Watson band tonight at The Buffs (Friday 1st July) was cancelled due to the death of Ashington's Greatest lead guitarist Johnny Whitehill
RIP The great JW
John Taylor
Oh no! really really sad. One of the greatest local guitarists of all time his playing was just exemplary his name could have equally been at home in all the Clapton is God graffiti that adorned many a wall and school book . A very very sad loss

Only just heard the news and I'm devastated. I was at Newcastle College in the 80's with him he taught me a tone trick on my amp that I've been using ever since. RIP old friend
