STRAWBSWEBNEWS - DECEMBER 2012

Sent by Dick Greener, 14 Dec 2012

Hi folks

A happy holiday season from Strawbs and Strawbsweb.

A few live opportunities in the UK - the last Acoustic Strawbs gig of the year tonight (14 Dec) in the wind-swept seaside town of Clacton, and advance news of some Acoustics dates in the New Year, in the UK and of course accompanying the Moody Blues and a fantastic roster of other artists on the Moodies Cruise in March 2013.

Also, a Christmas Roy Hill/Steve Whalley, with "special guests" promised and Hud's gigging schedule for the first quarter of 2013.

Cheers

DICK
