dodgnofski Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 Just have to say I was there on Friday night - with Baaaaabara of course - & if you were not then you missed a real treat! Great musicianship, including a brass section to die for, unbelievable harmonies & the Fat Wire's no slouch for an old Dodderer Nearly Dan are a Professional Outfit with talent in abundance & if you ever get the chance to see them - GO! I promise you, you will not be disappointed! I think we are all aware that Dan stuff aint no 'three chord bashers' & these guys do a really good job, 'Mu majors' & all!! On Friday, the venue was very well attended - OK IT WAS FULL - you gotta get there VERY early if you want a seat - great sound + real ale & Pro Musicians = a bloody good night. Sorry to be so gushing about this band, but they are a real treat to watch & unfortunately don't play locally often enough - 'Local' venues please note - book this band & you will be full to capacity of very thirsty, appreciative music fans!! Looking forward to the next Gig & hope it's not going to be too far away! Not going to next Nearly Dan Gig??? - ''Only A Fool Would Say That'' !!
