Yes! We went to a gig! I should explain, of course it wasn't a regular gig, those are some time off I fear, this was two hours of live streaming from the home of Danny Vaughn in Spain.
He's a brilliant guitar player and we were treated to not only six string but a twelve string acoustic guitar.
We first saw Danny some years ago when he was with The Illegal Eagles, which was an Eagles tribute band. It always surprised me that such a talented man was playing covers so I was pleased to find out he had his own band called Tyketto and more recently has teamed up with Dan Reed (he of the Dan Reed Network) to form a band called Snake Oil and Harmony.
We were due to see the latter a couple of months ago but it was cancelled due to the Coronavirus lockdown. Though the good news is the date has been re arranged for December, on a Sunday night unfortunately but there you are. Whether it will actually take place is another matter.
However, back to the story. This was actually the ninth week he has been broadcasting from his home, for one or another reason we haven't seen any of the others.It was a very relaxed gig. He was obviously comfortable in front of the camera, Mrs Danny popped in from time to time, Malibu & pineapple in hand!
I only knew a couple of the songs he sang , those being off the their latest album Hurricane Riders though there was a nice mix of slower songs and some more rocky numbers.
The two hours went all too quickly. If he does another next week we'll try and look in. Find him on FaceBook if you want to give it a try. You won't be disappointed.
