Jesse Whaur's yer troosers
Following on from Bedwyr ... Brian Dewan conjured with a small but dedicated audience for a performance on the enormous stone xylophone lovingly taken out from its local museum home for the first time in years.
By the time we reached the evening and Jesse Rae's set only the dedicated few remained. All I can say to the inhabitants of Coniston is you missed yer selves! As a teenager growing up in a small village I'd have thought the word had spun on it's axis if an evening's entertainment half as intriguing as Jesse's highly profesinal yet bizarre performance had come to Papworth St Agnes. It seems Coniston youth have better things to do though than watch a world class bass player (Doug Wimbish) and amazing live band travel between musical areas as diverse as Jesse's 'dark' new tunes to his own version of yes ... Donald Whaur's Yer Trousers.
I particularly like this image from the night of Jesse in full kit (yes he still NEVER takes this off) and my friend's daughter Ellie dancing with Polly the photographer.
