By this time next week it'll be all over. I'm talking about Robbie Fulks visit to Glasgow. Folks in Newcastle can catch him at The Cluny the night after but that's it. The man is flying in specifically to exact "Revenge" on Northern Britain, thanks to Kevin Morris, the man that's flying the "Billy Kelly Services To Americana" flag in these difficult times. The visit will coincide with the release of the man's double live set on Yep Roc. You'll be able to buy a copy from him in person at either show. Provided stocks last of course. Check out Robbie's notes on the material from the record. Hear Cher's "Believe" like you never heard it before! Lumps in the throat don't come any more choking than the version of "The Buck Starts Here" captured here and then there's "Let's Kill Saturday Night", a song that should be raking in airplay royalties in Eagles/Tom Petty-sized vanloads. " I like Being Left Alone" is one of a handful of new tunes that get an airing and looks set to become a crowd pleaser as only RF can stack 'em up.I don't urge people to do much but don't miss this rare opportunity to catch one of the real greats in full flight. Friday (25th) in Glasgow and Saturday (26th) in Newcastle. Some music really can transcend and this guy has all your bases covered. If you reckon different then you really shouldn't be reading this.

Hi saw Robbie at the Cluny he was terrific not a particularly large crowd but they certainly gave him great vocal and appreciative support.
Can't understand why he isn't filling bigger venues must be the country tag that puts UK audiences off.He did loads of requests including mine 'Cocktails'.
He said he'd be back pretty soon so here's till next time.

Thanks Chris. I don't think it's the country tag, I think that in general people are just stupid. It's their loss, this guy should be selling out much bigger places. It's difficult to explain in mere words just how solid his catalogue is.
