For the August Bank Holiday Monday (a sweltering one) Shane O’Linksi hosted a Shane’s Shenanigans all-dayer from the Reindeer back room, although it was way too nice and hot to sit in there so everyone sat outside with the bands performing in the doorway. It was a mellow acoustic affair with a delicious barbecue later in the afternoon too (I highly recommend the vegan sausages and chilli sauce). Among the acts performing was a rare opportunity to see the wonderful Woodland Creatures as well as sets by The Wash, David Jones, Jon Fennell, Joey Herzfeld Trio, Peter Turrell, Tom Conway and Shane himself.

The music wound-down about 7pm and so I headed in the direction of the Louis Marchesi Crypt for the Chris James EP launch with support from Becky Hazlewood, Hammeta and, for the second time of the day, Peter Turrell.
