The Return Of Friday Night Is Rockabilly Night 84


It's Friday night and I'm off to a works do/disco. Always difficult affairs aren't they- the combination of alcohol, people you work with and like, people you work with and tolerate, and people you work with who can drive you up the wall. Add in some awful music from a small club dj and you've got an evening made for disaster. Then there's the dress code- some people completely over the top in celebrity-reality TV show dog's dinner and some people looking like they've popped in on the way back from B and Q on a Sunday afternoon. On the other hand I can't remember the last time I went out on a Friday night so let's make the best of it eh?

So, like Vic Gallon in 1956, I'm Gone. This record features a very young rockabilly legend Dean Goffey on lead guitar and a whole heap of reverb.

Oh dear, SA.
There's always 'smart casual' -which is understood by nobody. At least shirts get tucked in these days. Was never comfortable with it hanging out.

It's 'big coat' weather, so you can cover up on the journey to and fro. Not quite Christmas, so can't get away with as many inappropriate gaffes.

Good luck.
