** Lightnin' Willie and the Poorboys - Last 08 Dates ** 
The next week or so sees the conclusion of Lightnin' Willie and the Poorboys' 2008 UK dates.   They'll be back in May 2008.
"From the moment Lightnin' Willie takes to the mic he infuses the room with buckets of Texas charm. While it's hard to get the audience doing much more than swaying and nodding appreciatively to Willie's soulful crooning to begin with, he really knows how to work the crowd, abandoning the mic and walking into the crowd and singing Where Does Love Go? to an attractive woman watching in awe. "

** Sherman Robertson & BluesMove - Advance Notice Irish Tour ** 
Sherman Robertson and BluesMove will be touring both Northern Ireland and Eire for the very first time since the 1990's this coming November.
"Just like on Friday the schedule would have a serious delay. But I didn't mind, neither did the crowd. By this I mean, everybody has someone who he admires musically. Someone you adore all the way. In my case it's Sherman Robertson, but not only for me because he is also the favourite of the Gaildorf Bluesfest. Also for this gig he was accompanied by the English rhythm section Blues Move, fantastic choice. 'Shake, Rattle and Roll' was Sherman's first song and I felt in a superior mood. Sherman brought his thing like he always does. Passionate and very powerfully, a real Texas blues tornado! With no compassion he drove his band to the limit. Sometimes powered, then again in a more easy way, but always full of passion. What a guitar player, what a singer, what a stage animal, this was enjoyment from start to finish. He even played two encores, one in duel with Deborah Coleman. And the crowd, well they went mad!"
