Hi,
Thanks to all who played and watched at the Circus on 4th April - particularly to a fantastically appreciative audience.
Great to have old hands Jess Roberts and Roger Emmerson back, and fantastic to have first timers Marshall Nattress
and Amy Brooks. Thanks to Simon Best for playing a blinding opening set and all the crew for their usual help. News of
Summer fest gigs soon. Sign up to the info list to be kept informed.

Hiya Folks,


Haven't really had time to write about our brilliant day out at The Sage, but here are some pictures of it! Thanks to everyone,
and especially to the wonderful Jess Roberts, without whom it wouldn't have happened. Thanks to all the players,
organisers and audience. Keep an eye on the website for news of us returning to The Sage, The Green Festival and The
Ouseburn Festival. Thanks to Christine Owen for the PIctures.
S

-----------------------------------------
Hiya!!
February Circus played to a packed house, and was very, very good! Everyone performed beautifully, and the audience
were as enthusiastic as ever. Nice to see Sundown back, Michael Chaney finding his (excellent) voice, Peter Bennett
impressing people yet again, and Richard John Thompson playing a rare solo spot. Simma and Ed Lauret continue to
shine together, and Verity Burton stepped into the gap left by an unavoidably detained Frekflag- our love and thoughts go
out to the band, and we hope to see them soon. It was good to see Circus full again, after we decided to take a break in
January. The Eagle Eyed amongst you will have spotted an enormous typo in the programs- oops! Never mind, eh? I hope
anyone calling into the site who’s never been before will keep calling back and find out when the next Circuses are on, you
can join the Email list on the right there. The next gig is the afternoon in the sage on Saturday 24th, lots of info here soon.
------------------------------------------------
Been a bit lax on the news page recently, sorry! Well done to everyone who appeared at and attended the last two
circuses... News of the Christmas show(s) soon.
Please check the front page for news of a couple of children in need gigs featuring various Circus alumni, in tribute to Alan
Hull.

------------------

Just got back from September 6th Circus.
Brilliant night, well done to everyone, another packed house, and another set of unbelievable acts. Special mention to
first-timers Mark Shilcock and Suburban Atmosphere. The Restaurant played a triumphant return set, as did Sharron
Levey-good to have the Captive Audio frontwoman back after so long. Thanks to Nick Gladdish for his last-minute
special guesting. Andy Mackin and Ed Laurete played up a storm, as per usual and the audience were great!
I'm told I was ok too.

Acoustic Circus at The Bridge Hotel 19-11-05

To those of us whose twin passions, apart from the obvious, are live music
and rugby, November 19th should have been a day made in heaven. During the
afternoon England met the All Blacks at Twickenham an unmissable occasion
for the committed rugby fan. In the evening the City Hall was the venue for
The Hull Story, a celebration of the life of Newcastle's finest song writing
son, the late Alan Hull, sadly taken from us almost exactly ten years ago.
Can it really be that long ago?

What a prospect in store. However there are times when things don't go
according to plan. Simma, one of the new generation of singer/songwriters
from the area who is highly involved with the promotion of good live music
through his work with Acoustic Circus organised an afternoon gig, ostensibly
for the Hull fans who had travelled from far and wide to be part of the
celebration, but also for the crowd and performers who frequent the Bridge
Hotel on a more regular basis.

The plan? Simple. We could go to the Bridge for the first half hour or so
and still get back to the hotel to see the rugby, Everyone's happy and we
have time to shower and change before the main event at the City Hall.

That was the plan. That is until Scott Hutchinson took to the stage. A big
lad who can craft songs that are simultaneously angry and sensitive. He can
also sing and handle his guitar. Normally I would apologise for not
remembering the names of the songs but, as Scott can't remember their names
either, I am not too worried.

Next up was Verity Burton, a slip of a lass with a huge voice who carries a
bluesy tune as well as anyone I've ever heard. The young crowd near us
appreciated her work and accompanied her in a surprisingly tuneful fashion.

It was then the turn of Steve Foster, an American, who being from Indiana
looks and sounds like Woody, the barman in Cheers. He had travelled over to
attend the Hull Story and treated us to a set of songs from his favourite
songwriter. He included a delightful version of one of my favourites, Treat
Me Kindly, a song I was destined never to hear sung by it's creator. However
Steve did full justice to this lovely little number.

The Simma who then took to the stage looked almost the same as he did when I
last heard him play almost two years ago. However he now exudes a confidence
gained from his time on the road and in the studio. His own songs have a
bite and maturity about them. His lyrics stay with you - "I can still feel
your presence around me, touching me somewhere within" - from the song In
The Morning that appears on his new album Trouble Sleeping. Heirloom/Blue
Eyed Baby brought a lump to my throat.

It was his versions of more Alan Hull classics (I'd forgotten how many great
songs he wrote) that got the crowd clapping stamping and singing along. It
would appear that a principle of Acoustic Circus is that if a few performers
all take a few friends, there'll always be a healthy crowd. These supporters
were all good singers in their own rights. There was also a harmonica player
called Dave The Happy Singer. Sounds like a cartoon character but this guy
appeared on request on numerous occasions and joined in with some stunning
harp.

One of the stars for me was a guitarist called Andy Mackin. This guy has a
real gift, an exceptional ear for music and a superb pair of guitarists
hands. From time to time he joined in and captivated the audience with his
wonderful playing. I almost wrote "licks" but that would have been so
seventies, man. He's young and I believe he has only recently taken up the
instrument. God only knows how good he can be.

Every one of them took to the stage for the final few Lindisfarne anthems.
It was touching to realise that Alan Hull's rich song writing legacy is in
such safe hands. Long may they keep his music alive.

Despite missing the rugby, it was a day made in heaven. The Bridge, City
Hall in the evening and the Simma and the Steve Daggett Trio in The Tyne the
following day. Great venues, great music and wonderful people. What more can
you ask?

Well done to everyone for last night’s Circus, packed to the rafters yet again! Many, many members of the
audience were commenting about the quality of the acts, truly outstanding.

We are putting on some music this Saturday downstairs in the Bridge, it starts at 2pm, goes till about half five and
you're all welcome. It's free, Simma, Verity Burton, Steve Foster from the US and some others are playing. We'll send
an Email.


24 Oct 2005

Thanks to all involved last night, fantastic stuff! Everyone played well and, yet again, the place was packed. Sorry about
the bar, but no one seemed to be that bothered, and it was beyond our control anyway.
The new performers were outstanding to the point of actually shocking the audience! It was fantastic to hae John
Nellist back too. A night of fantastic new music- but then that's kinda the point....

Thank you to all who made last Circus so succesful- it's always nice to have to worry about being over the fire limit!
Not only was the audience satisfyingly large, they were pretty much all listeners, and a good thing too, as all the
performers put in brilliant sets. Well done to everyone, You can buy Paul Jeans' album from http://www.pauljeans.co.
uk/ and you can buy Ady Ferguson's Album from http://www.rgfrecords.demon.co.uk/ ,Simma is almost finished his
new album, see http://www.simma.co.uk for updates. The Restaurant are playing at the Tavern on Thursday, and we'll
try to catch up with the other performers to let you know what they're up to.
Extra special thanks to James Adamson for doing the sound with Paul Jeans, and to Rob at The Bridge for not making
us turn people away when it got really full.

Obviously, as you may have noticed, the Archer is no more, so we won't be having any more gigs there!!

See you on Sunday 23rd for our first Sunday Acoustic Circus in aaaaaages.

Stuff you need to know.....

Rich countries have promised to provide the extra
money needed to meet the internationally agreed
poverty reduction targets. This amounts to at least $50
billion per year and must be delivered now. Rich
countries have also promised to provide 0.7% of their
national income in aid and they must now make good
on their commitment by setting a binding timetable to
reach this target.
However, without far-reaching changes in how aid is
delivered, it won't achieve maximum benefits. Aid
needs to focus better on poor people's needs. This
means more aid being spent on areas such as basic
health care and education. It should no longer be
conditional on recipients promising economic change
like privatising or deregulating their services, cutting
health and education spending, or opening up their
markets. Aid should support poor countries' and
communities' own plans and paths out of poverty.

Acoustic Circus 6th April
Just a quick not to say how brilliant last night (6th
April) was. We were there to talk about fair trade and
we did, and had an absolutely excellent gig with a
fantastic audience. Roger Emmerson and Kelly
Brownell got the night off to a particularly good start,
both first timers at Circus, and special mention really
must go to Mrs. Moomintroll, who finished the night
off in great style- with big, cleverly written and
beautifully performed songs. We sold all the white
wristbands we had for Make Poverty History, and got
lots of fair trade voting cards filed out and sent off.
Stayed tuned for news of next month!

Radio Show and Danny
On Saturday, we did a two-hour show on New West
FM, a community radio station in the West End of
Newcastle. We had 9 live performers, including Tea
Cup Head, Chris Wilkinson, Chris Kinley, Trev Gibb,
Verity Burton, Richard Gardner, Nick Gladdish of
Casual Kai, Pete Hardaker and Simma. It went
amazingly well, even if Brian and Simma aren't the
most natural broadcasters in radio history. An eventful
day, which was a fantastic laugh for all involved.

Special mention must go to-

Everyone for meeting on time (it did look like a school
trip), and getting a taxi convoy to the west end.
To Lorraine Dodsworth for guiding us through the
technical nightmare of making a live radio programme.
To Richard Gardner who nipped to the local Netto for
provisions and merrily stood in the kitchen making
everyone sarnies (hero).
Nick Gladdish for dancing round like a baboon and
generally being strange and entertaining in between
performers.
And of course to New West FM, who actually
extended our show by half an hour, due to an
overwhelming public response.

Hopefully there will be more of this sort of silly day out
in the future. Next event is the Archer on 31st March
with Sundown, The Fiction, Nick Grimes and The
Richard Gardner Blues Implosion.

We are very sad to announce the resignation of Danny
Ward from the management committee of Acoustic
Circus. Danny has begun teaching drums, which
doesn't leave him the time to volunteer. We are sure he
will be as brilliant a teacher as he is a drummer. Danny
has been with Circus from the very first gig, and his
work on the sound desk has been praised in reviews
and by audiences countless times. The Circus will
always be very grateful for his work, and the
organisation would simply not exist without him.

We will be officially co-opting a new member of the
committee very soon...

Well, thanks to everyone who played and came along
to Circus's 4th Birthday gig at the Bridge. Absolutely
packed, and everyone plays incredibly well. Special
mention must go to Chris Wilkinson, for his first gig
ever, and a truly outstanding performance. No-one
would believe that he hadn't played in front of an
audience before! Thanks too to Angus Grey for
stepping in at the last minute after James Hails came
down with the nastiness. The next gig, is, of course
The NWO Circus collaboration- See The Informer,
