Music in the City
I have come to the conclusion that going out in Cardiff on FA Cup Final night is not the wisest choice I have ever made. The City, of course, rose magnificently to the challenges posed by this event, as it always does, but it can cause problems in terms of parking and getting a table in a restaurant. Nevertheless, we managed it and had a very enjoyable evening.
The idea was to have a meal and then go and see Hal in Barfly. We eventually got into one of the Italian restaurants in time to eat and get to Barfly for the support acts. One of the support artists was Baxter Drury, son of the late Ian, of Blockheads fame. Hal, themselves, were original and outstanding, whilst their keyboard player must be the most eccentric I have seen since Sparks.
A good night all round.
