Hello fellow fans, so pleased to have found this site, and joined. Bill's music and playing have always left me in wonder, ever since we booked them for a College gig back in the 70's.....Trent Park College of Education. I was so pleased to track down a 45 of 'Maid in Heaven' for my 1961 Rock Ola Regis jukebox, from an online auction site......the only thing is the G3 keys are getting worn out! My mates won't stop playing it! I know move the single to another location, sorted.
Bill and the Band performing the song at last years convention was fantastic! I only got to see it on You Tube, but brilliant all the same.
Will their be a similar event this year? I would love to see them again.
Cheers, P x

Hello Patsy,

I was at Trent Park, Middx Poly, 82 to 85, I did not know Bill had played there! 8)

Saw all sorts of bands in the 80's highlight's including John Otway & Wild Willy Barrett & plenty of others, some of whom I've forgotten about owing to being a bit worse for the wear on the night :oops:

Happy days, Its all still there as far as I know.

Yeah, you bet Patsy. If you check in at Williams World there are announcements like that. You shouldn't have to poke around too terribly much because the way they set them up they should always be at the top of the topic list. They call them sticky topics, but don't worry the part you read isn't sticky. Just the part on the back. :wink:

Patsy,

Also Gigs/Nelsonicas tend to be advertised well in advance as some people live all over the world & need plenty of advance notice so they can make travel plans,

Best to keep an eye on Williams World, if a solid date emerges a special page devoted to that Gig is put up by the Mods giving all the details.
