Lincolnshire Born and Bred - 4 March 2014 18:17261783El Paso, at Tilmanstone 28 February - cowboy hats and boots too !
We all enjoyed a relaxing evening listening to the golden tones of Bill Beer, and his lovely music, in the village hall. It was good to see so many people and visitors.
We all helped ourselves to delicacies from the lovely selection of 'puddings' (hot and cold), served with cream, ice cream, custard. Thank you to all the ladies for all your home made contributions which were much enjoyed.
With the warm red glow from the heaters, and candlelight (thanks Jenny), Bill's evening started with "Big Iron" - one of Frankie Laine's memorable songs, and following that were treated to a wide selection of much loved country and western songs including songs made popular by Marty Robbins, Johnny Cash, Tex Ritter, Willie Nelson, Charlie Pride, and more. We learned about "A Boy Named Sue", "El Paso", and not forgetting "The Ghost of Hank Williams". And some advice "Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys". Requests included "You were always on my mind", "I Walk the line", "Devil Woman". We also heard some of Bill's own songs, including My Home in Tennessee, Heading Home from Dixie.
During the interval, second helpings of puddings were served, and the raffle was drawn. Thank you to all who provided prizes.
Bill continued his concert for the rest of the evening and was applauded enthusiastically by a very appreciative audience. What a good evening we all had - I have had several people tell me how much they enjoyed it, and we look forward to another visit Bill, before long. Thank you.
A good profit was made for the Village Hall Funds, thank you everyone.
