Brown Edge, New Year's Eve 2012

Happy New Year!

Thanks to everyone who helped make our New Year's Eve party such a success – Mikes 1 and 2, Jennie and Sarah and especially Sylvia for all her hard work before she even got to the gig.

The Old Brown Jug, Newcastle-under-Lyme

Christmas starts for me with our December Moody Food gig at The Old Brown Jug. We borrowed Candida from our bluegrass alter ego Plucked! and forced her to sing some Christmassy songs to get us all into the swing of things, so our Moody Food set had a little more song and a little less dance than usual.
