John Otway

[davethailand]

The Blues Factory is proud to announce that the UK's own John Otway will be performing a one off show live on Monday 14th March.

 

Hailing from Buckinghamshire he is an English singer-songwriter, who has built a sizeable cult audience through extensive touring, a surreal sense of humour and a self-deprecating underdog persona.

 

He'll be performing his music/ comedy show live for us and will also be backed up by Barry Upton.

(He will also play the Expats club on the sunday morning).

The house band The Blues Machine featuring Snowman & Mary will also be part of the show backing the acts.

Hope to see you there.

Had some good feedback on this, hopefully it will be a good night.

Hope to see you there.

By all accounts John Otway packed out the expats club on sunday so tonight will hopefully also be a good night.

[bouph]

Well, he didn't do "Headbutts" (maybe the stage ceiling was too low?),but for a man who can't sing and can barely play guitar he was

 

Brilliant night!
