On Wednesday next week, folk music superstars ‘Nelson-Peach’ will be performing with an extra – an itinerant melodeon player, singer and beer inspector….Me.
The performance will be on the Folk-Train running between Chester and Plumley. The plan is to be on the 19.07 train from Chester where we will perform on the train until we disembark at Plumley. A quick beer (or two) in the Golden Pheasant and we perform in the pub.
Around 21.45 we will leave the pub and walk back to Plumley train station to catch the 22.03 back to Chester, performing again on the return journey.
Our musical gathering today was to thrash out a tune and song list – and then run through the set. We spent 3 hours working (playing!) on the set, I’ll spend a few hours running through the set at home (no, I WON’T be playing with myself!!) just to make sure the performance is up to scratch.
Nelson-Peach rehearsing
We’re happy with our set and the rehearsal went very well.
After such a demanding session we needed to rehydrate…so bottles of beer were produced and emptied in fast order.
If you’re around on Wednesday 13th June, come along – it will be fun. Even with me playing and singing.
I may be attempted to join you at the pub. Can you tell me the address.

The pub is just across the way from Plumley train station.
It would be good to see you!
