View full article

the wife has booked a family holiday to orlando  for 3 weeks,  ....totally p*ssed off i cant make it... ...cleethorpes that is..

Fantastic news, Love this lady,s voice,Cant come quick enough

Very distinctive voice and she must be in her sixties. Don't know how well that will work out and I hope it doesn't just become homage, but Cleethorpes have certainly done it again bringing in an important artist. 

counting the days, there'll be a few of bettyes' tunes played on sleeveless soul this tuesday evening, she's a favourite artist of the show.

Bring it on, can't wait,

 

Cheers Jim.

Ditto!......................thanx to Ady for bringing her over, she was excellent......still a few ignorant people nattering away while she was performing.....and on the Sunday evening, whoever the loud mouth cow was who just wouldn't shut her fat face.......she was a disgrace. 

Yes enjoyed Betty Swann - great to see her.

What did Betty make of the reception she got?  Bet she was shocked?

Totally gobsmacked and quite emotional.

She left the stage in tears apparently, totally overwhelmed by the fantastic reception she received. It must be one of the best greetings I've heard given to an artist in along time at a weekender.

There are some photos of my flickr page, the link is in my signature.

A privilege to meet ms Swann and have her sign an album for my other half who was distraught to have had to work instead of seeing her favourite artist. I mentioned I,d have loved to have heard her sing, "Then you can tell me goodbye", and was dumbfounded when she said she,d have happily sung it had she brought her guitar. I think it would have brought the house down. The music played in the main room was as always top notch . it was great to see billy and ruby( what a dancer) up from down south and some great mates from the west of the pennines. You know who you are ! To coin a phrase.Thanks ady and to everyone who helped and worked so hard to run and organise.and to ms Swann and her band and backing singers.Please come back again soon.

Anyone have the list of what Bettye sang right order as well please.
