Full Circle at the Merry Muse Folk Club, Canberra

My body was telling me it was 07.00AM and I hadn’t slept all night, despite it being 9.00PM in Canberra. But it was a good crowd and we fired well off each other to make a good show. The audience was larger than usual and the evening had a really good feel to it. We were supported by vocal harmony group Humbug.
We played a great version of Farewell to Chernobyl and Trip to Pakistan - good Celtic tunes - and the folk club was nearly full - quite a contrast to some previous occasions.
It’s good to be home again after a fairly hectic two weeks away in Canada and USA, but it was also great to play in some wonderful sessions overseas.
Cheers
Jerry
