Teresa Watson Band @ Morpeth Comrades Club - June 11

This was Teresa's third gig since the sad passing of her legendary (Ashington born) guitarist Johnny Whitehill. It's great that Teresa's band is back on the go with Johnny's replacement fitting in seamlessly well. They played two great sets and have many more concerts planned all over the north east.

The Comrades Club in Morpeth is now a weekly Sunday venue putting on local bands. Previously, there were monthly Sunday night gigs at the Sour Grapes Bar-Cafe. When the Grapes closed down, Comrades Club committee man Ralph Davison effected the change over.

There was a good turnout at the Comrades on Sunday although this may have been because it was also the Morpeth Fair Day which always brings in an influx of visitors. Teresa's band will be returning to the Comrades Club soon. John T
