Grovers,

I got the following from Gordon. So I'd appreciate if anyone thinks they can go to indicate same so I can get a fix on numbers as this is a limited ticket gig.


Hiya Pat,
Hope your keeping well,as always may I say a huge thank you from Pat,Paul and myself to you and all the Grovers for comin out and supporting us on our  Live DVD/CD in the lamb, it was a crackin night, we had a ball, and as usual the Grovers made the night into more of a party than a gig!! We are forever in your debt, and by way of a thank you for all that you guys do for us i have some news for you that you will not believe! 
As you know we were out on tour in europe a few months ago and crossed paths with the legendary lead guitarist from Wishbone Ash, Andy Powell. We got on really well with him and have stayed in touch, and he recently told us that he wanted to take a holiday in Ireland. As it turns out after we told him about how special our gigs in the Lamb can be he has agreed to do a special one off gig while on his holiday in The Slaughtered Lamb on Saturday 8th of August!!!! This guy is amazing and the gig will be one of the best you'll ever see.
This could almost be described as a secret gig! We are only inviting 120 people to this gig, thats it. The tickets are only being sold to our friends and loyal followers. At the moment we have not announced the gig anywhere because it will sell out in ten minutes flat, Wishbone Ash have a massive fan base in Ireland. 
Putting on an another intimate gig like this is our way of saying thanks to you guys for all the support youve given us. If any of the Grovers want tickets we are offering them to you guys first!!
This will be a magical night, we'll do a few numbers then Andy will come on and do some of the Wishbone Ash classics with us, please get the word to the Grovers but try and keep it quiet for the moment, and i personally will ensure there's as many tickets for you guys as you need.
Thanks as always Pat, and say hello to all the lads for us.
Gordon Sheridan,
Pat McManus Band.

Pat,

I'm gutted as I am away on hols in early August. I'm a big fan of WA. It will be a great gig for those that can make it.

No problem Gary.

Good stuff Pete. Wishbone Ash were one hell of a band in the early 70's and Cecil played them in the Grove. What more can I say

Dentist. Agree with SHH, Pat Mc Manus is awesome.

His gigs are free usually, unless he has a guest with him and we use his gigs are a get together for Grovers since we only have one Grove reunion a year now. Even Cecil himself came along one night and said it was llike being at The Grove.

Don't give that Dentist fellah any tickets...him and 'The Doctor' (not Pat's new found old friend) are in cahoots and are more at home at C De B gigs...
