ROCKLAND SALA, BLUES AT SEA STOCKHOLM, ROCK AT SEA STOCKHOLM NOVEMBER 2006 
Over to Sweden for three dates.. ROCKLAND in Sala and two shows on the cruise ship Cinderella out from Stockholm.. BLUES AT SEA and ROCK AT SEA. All the shows were great with a healthy crowd showing up at ROCKLAND and a wild gig. Thanks to Johnny for chaffeuring us in his beautiful Lincoln Limo (ex Madonna we were assured) and to Hasse for all his help. BLUES AT SEA was a blast and we made a whole lot of new friends. Also bumping into the excellent "Two Timers" who did another great show. And ROCK AT SEA was, as expected, a riot.
I managed to smash myself in the face with my own guitar during our set, with the blood consequently running down my face and cries of "Rock and Roll" from the crowd. Once again we made a lot of friends and partied the night away watching some great bands including Tony Martin (ex Black Sabbath), Voodoo Beans, and the powerhouse German rock band U.D.O. during whos performance I had to physically hold Linda down to stop her pogoing into the ceiling. Thanks again to Torsten at July Morning for inviting us along. Photo above by Hazze Sjoberg.

ROCKLAND SETS: 1. Bring it on Home Nobody By My Side Come Home Baby Bedtime Blues You Need Love 2. Burnout Fred McDowell King Bee What is it about You? Backdoor Man Wish you Would Milkman Good Rocking Tonight HARELBEKE ROCK & BLUES FESTIVAL, BELGIUM 2 SEPTEMBER 2006 
Only our second new show after a 34 year break - and we had a great time! The festival line-up also featured the British Blues All Stars including Tony McPhee, Bob Hall, Jim McCarty, and the excellent Bernie Marsden with his own three piece band.
We had a blast and soon got the house rocking. Great to meet old friends such as Kevin and Bob from the All Stars, Killing Floor's old roadie Bernie, and Patrick from Lille, and to make some new ones such as Bernie Marsden. A great evening - many thanks to Eric Hautekeete for putting everything together so well and dealing with bands cancelling, hotel roofs falling in and all the rest. Rock on.

Back on stage with Bill, Bazz and Mac along with Dave Lennox joining us on the piano seemed the most natural thing in the world. We had a wild time at Gross Lindow - rough at times but with all the feeling. The crowd were great with total encouragement throughout.. many thanks to them and to Wolfgang and the crew for their excellent organisation and hospitality. Photo below by Barbara Joyce
