Last gig of the tour. Due to tight security we had difficulties to take some pictures. The Rhythm Kings played a fab concert as usual and Katie Wyman and Martin Barre (Jethro Tull) were among the audience.
After the gig we said bye-bye to the band and the crew and talked to Graham Broad and his wife for a while. Maria talked about coming to Germany in the future and we should look out for the newsletter of her website.
Nick Payn is currently on tour with Roger Chapman.
Bill will go on a well deserved vacation and we hope to see this band again in the near future.

Thanks again to the crew. Had a great time talking to you guys.

Bill Wyman´s Rhythm Kings at Lighthouse Poole - 29 November 2013

My first visit to Poole and this venue. We had front row seats and took a couple of pictures in the first half. I enjoyed the solos of Terry a lot this time and had a lot of fun listening to Geraint´s short stories this time. We wer told to stop taking pictures in the interval by the very efficient security. The band played fab, but some people told Maria in the interval that they could not hear the singing-voices properly, which was corrected on the second set.

The first gig for me on this leg of the tour. It is always a great place to be. Enjoyed every minute of it and the band was fab. Unfortunately pictures were not allowed, just took some reasonable ones. The show endet with a standing ovation and an outstanding saxophone duett. The fans were full of praise for the band. Had the chance to talk to some of the musicians after the concert and could not get the great songs out of my head.

My first visit to the Venue Cymru. Nice travel to Llandudno and the weather was good. 

The Rhythm Kings were great and played to a very enthusiastic crowd. The setlist remained the same but Nick Payn and Frank Mead did more funny moves on this show.

About Maria Muldaur:Maria Muldaur has a musical history firmly planted in American roots music. She also sings jazz, RnB and blues, all with a rare combination of soulfulness and sensuality. She recorded the 1974 hit song "Midnight at the Oasis," and continues to record albums in the folk traditions.
