During the Gig, Nick was about to play but realised he didn't have a capo. He asked the audience, which raised a laugh but I offered my 'finger' which, to my amazment, he duly accepted.

So there you have it. Standing on stage as a human capo with the Man.


Memorable to say the least......................:m8:

I so know what you're saying! My first Nick gig was over 12 years ago now... 12 years?!? Where did that time go? :confused1:

My beloved got sick of me moaning about how it couldn't possibly be 25 years since... [fill in the blank here] during 'Now That's What I Call 1983' last night :blushing:

Bury Met! I keep hearing good things from folk who have played there about the excellent acoustics and sound. Forgot this thread and that Nick had played there. Time for a return maybe...

I saw Roy play there sometime in the last millennium (1984?!), also Robin Williamson about a year or so later. It sounded great as I recall, but it's probably had a refurb since, I'll let you know after I've returned, to see Luka Bloom on May 16th.
