IONA NEWS

HI Everyone,

It's just over a week before Dave Bainbridge will be back on the road playing some Iona music in his 'An Evening of Iona Music and More' duo dates with the multi-talented Sally Minnear. This is a chance to see and hear some great music in an intimate setting and we've been thrilled at the audience response to Dave and Sally's gigs so far.

And in less that 3 months we have a few more Celestial Fire band gigs, featuring the same stellar line up as on last year's dates (Sally Minnear, Iona's own Frank van Essen, Dave Brons, Simon Fitzpatrick and Dave Bainbridge). Later in the year we hope to release a Celestial Fire live DVD, recorded at last October's concert in York. On the forthcoming dates the band will be including some music from Iona's 2006 Circling Hour album that has never before been played live!

Full details below. For more info on the Dave & Sally duo and Celestial Fire band visit www.opensky121.wix.com/davebainbridge

...BECAUSE SOME OF US THINK THAT THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT
What happens when you mix what is - arguably - the world's most interesting record company, with an anarchist manic-depressive rock music historian polymath, and a method of dissemination which means that a daily rock-music magazine can be almost instantaneous?

Most of this blog is related in some way to the music, books and films produced by Gonzo Multimedia, but the editor has a grasshopper mind and so also writes about all sorts of cultural issues which interest him, and which he hopes will interest you as well.
