075R Diamonds and Ice
A remastered version of our 75th show, hence the shiney stuff. Over 20 on the stream, so a good audience, and most appreciative in the Cavern.
Diamonds and Ice
This week’s showing is a remaster of our 75th show (man, that was a long time ago… going strongly towards our 250th original show these days!), so the themes are diamonds and ice. A quite diverse field of music will be presented, too.
See you in the Cavern,

206 Billy Joel
A show featuring a very popular musician of great worldwide fame who is still touring at age 73, twenty years after his most recent studio album was released.
A peak of 27 listeners, which may sound disappointing, but it was Mysterium weekend and during the summer holidays, so it’s a solid result.
The preshow had Billy in some of his previous bands and on some early demos.
Billy Joel
This week, we are going to look at the music and career of Billy Joel. If you’re like I and have no idea who that is, or don’t know what kind of music he does, this is the show for you! Also if you like Billy Joel and want to hear some of his music.
See you in the Cavern,

073R Rock Humour II: Turned Up to 11!
A second batch of Rock Humour, featuring some of the bands that we missed the first time around. Mostly good clean fun, and a peak of 20 listeners. not bad for a summer holiday show.
Preshow was from my stash, end of the G’s and a first H.
