Fiddles and Fools ahoy

selenayYesterday I managed to leave on work at my actual finish time, which meant that I actually made it home with enough time to eat before going to my concert. In fact, we rolled up before the doors opened! Most unexpected, that, although it did mean that we were in line to get decent seats.
We saw a band called Feast of Fiddles and I can heartily recommend them. The band consists of seven of the best folk fiddlers around (Chris Leslie, Phil Beer, to name two) plus a rock backing group. So they covered everything from haunting duets to beautiful ballads and bright jigs with the odd rock anthem thrown in for good measure. It was a terrifically fun evening and now I need to find recordings of some of the best stuff :-)
The only downside is that I am incredibly, unbelievably tired today so I shall be signing off shortly for an early night.
I do need to mention that I got the new Radio Times today. Well, Mum got it and she claims that the superstore only had the Ood cover. Heh. I haven't actually read more than the editor's bit yet and I'm feeling even more hyped up for Doctor Who than ever now. Only three days!
Was it my imagination or were there more April Fools' jokes going on than usual yesterday?
