I dunno thats why I'm asking you!

Which one would I tap my foot to at a gig? Or will I just be better staying at home cleaning up baby poo and icky sick?

I've not heard of Whishbone Ash, but i've got tickets to Walter Trout in London...

Think something along the lines of Stevie Ray Vaughan, Hendrix and some older blues stuff rolled into one.

I'd forgotten how good Wishbone Ash were. Spotify'd some old favourites.

Cheers DB.

Saw Wishbone years ago, bit of a cult following nowadays but were trendy in the 70's and early 80's. Sort of a prog rock feel, from Hemel Hempstead iirc. Walter on the other hand, straight blues man, always has quality musicians in his band, I haven't seen him but have heard some of his stuff. Close call...comes down to either what you like or how adventurous you feel. Either way, make sure you make the event enjoyable...lunch out, drinks etc...have a ggood time...that way you'll enjoy who ever you choose to see.
Get someone else to sort the baby poo, sit back, relax and enjoy.

Old peoples music, plus much more cultured than that XFactor crap

Stingo, although Wishbone Ash is within the boundaries of musical taste I listen to, they are one that I've missed hearing(dunno why) I've not heard of Walter Trout however. Again, hes someone I've missed, and I have been exposed to an absolutely astounding amount of decent music over the years.

Reason for asking Darren, is that I am to be taking someone out for a landmark birthday and they can't decide which one to go to, as they don't want me to be bored, so has left it for me to decide, as they love both.

Oh that's nice

Not only do I drive an Audi like your dad (probably the same age), I now listen to old people's music.

OMG! I can remember when a Mars bar was less than a tanner. 2.5p to you young folks

And when the tickets for the band to see were twelve and six a time.
