Blackpool musician gets scare of his life

For all the music fans of Johnny Walker!

He's not dead, yet, although finding this grave scared him a little.  No! Scared him a lot.

 We calmed him with this!

A trip down memory lane and a stroll into history.  On location, the Lancashire village of Downham,  where "Whistle Down the Wind" was filmed before release in 1961.

BLOWJANGLES street band in Clitheroe, Lancashire










Meet the BLOWJANGLES performing in Clitheroe on Saturday.  The shame is my sound recording on my cheap camera does not do them justice.
They call themselves a street band and bring a vibrant, all family friendly beat and foot tapping experience to even the most pernickity of music connoisseurs.
Despite the Arctic Weather, all the bands were great and I will definitely be returning next year.  It has put me in the mood to rethink Colne, later on in in Summer, if it ever arrives.  When small towns can put on such great events, it is to my chagrin that I have avoided them since Gt Uncle Norman lived in Church, all those years ago.
Well done, Lancashire and Clitheroe.
