No? Ah. Yes. You see this is the problem with listening to American folk and country isn’t it? Bugger.
Those of you who have lived with me over the past couple of years might recognise him for doing “that song” about “desperados waiting for a train”.
For the record, Guy Clark is very, very, very good. Part poet, part craftsman. He’s written songs that have been covered by the likes of Johnny Cash, David Allen Coe, George Strait and Vince Gill.
Still not tempted? Oh.
Nevermind. I’m very much looking forward to hearing him playing one of his hand crafted guitars at the Bloomsbury Theatre in London on September 20th… if anybody else fancies an education in Nashville brilliance it’d be really nice not to go alone! ![]()

A mere £21 Davey boy! And no, you don’t have to wear a stetson. But if you want to bring a tin of chewing tobacco and a flask of whiskey I’m sure it’d help you appreciate the general vibe

I hope you enjoy the concert–I’d go with you if I could but it’s kind of a long commute from Texas to wherever you are in the UK. Guy Clark is outstanding in concert so I know you’ll have a fine time, but really, guys, no stetsons are required. You don’t even have to don “manly footwear.”
