Hi Blam, my band will be playing at The Ent Shed, Castle Road, Bedford on Friday 29th October 2010. I'll be performing a mix of my own material along with covers of some of my favorite songs, including 5 Bowie songs, "Rebel Rebel", "Quicksand", "Kooks", "Bus Stop" (Tin Machine), and "Heroes". Other material I'm covering includes material by Cockney Rebel, T.Rex, Squeeze, and John Cale.
I'm also performing "Almost Grown" which David performed at The BBC In Concert show in 1971, so the show is very DB orientated. My band features some of the best Bedford based musicians including Jez Green, who is flying in from Germany just for this gig.
Regards, David Priest
