Bands performing during the day were as per the T-shirt order! (web links where found)

  • The Crew – and I believe two of the members were married at Hewishstock, then went on to play their set!! (unfortunately we were too late to see them) Wish you both all the best for the future!
  • Aiden Simpson – a young man with a great future with his own songs, I believe
  • Barry Paul as Elvis – always an excellent set!
  • Mojo, yup – tha’s us!
  • Bill Smarme and The Bizness – great new lyrics to some well known songs!
  • Hobo Jones and The Junk Yard Dogs. Get along to see them!! Totally “off the wall” and brilliant!
  • Ska Wars. The energy and enthusiasm these guys have is unbelievable! Again – if you gat the chance – go see them!
  • Final act – Martha’s Vineyard – They have been at Hewishstock for a number of years and I don’t know how many! (I’m sure they may tell me). They have a huge following in the area and they were well in evidence here! It seems that this is their last appearance at Hewishstock. Sorry to hear that guys.

Finally – just want to thank all organisers for the excellent day – and arranging such good weather. (Pity about the Sunday!!) Also thanks to Ben (from Martha’s) for sound engineering – excellent job! Same goes to anyone connected with the running of the day!
Any better web links required – send them on in to mike@finding-the-time.co.uk

About Mike

Drum stool with Mojo and Off the Rails. Off The Rails is my first band and it's been playing for 15 years! How time flies! Great bunch of guys - all excellent players and fun to be with. Mojo - a more recent gig for me! I was asked around 2006 to sit in while the original guy was away. He subsequently left. I was asked to take the seat and said yes with little persuasion!! I have enjoyed every gig since! Learning new numbers nearly every week has stretched me and I LOVE it!!
