February's night at Victory Hall, Napton was a quiet affair. Gordon was in charge and the awful wet weather deterred all but a select band so Gordon opened at 8.30 after Jason provided some subtle amplification to proceedings

Gordon's opening offering were The Beatles -"What you see is me", and a couple of songs he aired at Kilsby, earlier in the month, 'I'm just here to help' and 'The Love Bug'.

George gave the first performance of a new song about being in a hole. It doesn't have a title yet. Second song was 'Simple Life' and then that Justin Beiber Classic -'Love Yourself'. At least one member of the audience knew who Justin Beiber was, apparently his daughter is a fan.

Jason and Rachael- Califoria Dreaming though the parts were swapped. Natali Imbruglia's Torn.

Allen had his resonator and it kepthis fingers busy as e tried to keep pace with Keith Richards on Paint it Black. Follwed by the blues Ain't gonna worry my life no more.

Regular Napton performer Frank was accompaied by Betty and they , Willie Nelson's 'You Are My Sunshine', which was one of the songs my Mum used to sing to me when I was little, so it always brings fond memories whenever I hear it. Their next was Hank Williams' I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry'
, a capella duet Merl Haggard song 'Somewhere Between'

And and Roger Peaceful easy feeling (eagles), black magic woman the two acoustic guitars giving a very jaz bluse feel, upping he tempo, Come on Everybody.

Martin, usually anonymous wthin a larger choir sang a cappela warmed us up with a joke about the trouble you can get into wrongly identifying a snake before singing the Pixar classic, Let it Snow, Simon and Garfunkles challenging Bridge Over Troubled Water and a slightly Christianised version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujia.

Gordon played us through the chip break with a couple of standards, 'Stand by me and Let it be me, well it's all me, me, me, but it is going to take more than forgoing a few chips if he's going to get into that skirt. Jason stepped in to sing moon River

Gordon then played his Kilsby competition number, Just the way I feel, which we reminded him, didn't win.

George was Knocking on heaven's door again

These boots were definitely made for walking.

Jason and Rachael Nancy Sinatra These Boots were made for walking, and thre was a real sense of menace in her voice. Watch out Jason.

Allen's resonator added a real blues sound to Emeli Sande's 'Suitcase'.

Harriet Black Velvet Band and Jar of Hearts Christina Perry

Frank acoustic medley 'A world of our own', 'The Skyboat Song' and 'Farewell'. Andy and Roger got us rocking with a cracking performance of Stevie Ray Vaughn's 'She's My Sweet Little Lady and I'm Her Little Lover Boy'. So much so that it had Frank and Betty up on the dancefloor jiving. More rocking came in the form of The Beatles song 'I Feel Fine' and Van Morrison's 'Brown Eyed Girl'. The two acoustics sounded great together and really complemented Andy's vocals.

Martin's end to the evening was a nautical affair, a sea shanty followed by Rod Stewart's Sailing.

The evening was ended by Gordon, Andy and Roger, 'Til There Was You. The Rejects are playing on Saturday 27^th at Victory Hall.
