two surreal shows at King Tut‘s last year. supported by his spiritual brothers The Johnny 7 with their cheesy Hammond renditions of popular classics.
I Val Doonican Motherwell Concert Hall. 01698 267 515. 8pm. £9. £8 (£7.50). The owner of Delaney's Donkey and many other fine hits oils the creak in his rocking chair and soothes the burghers of Motherwell with his Irish lullabics. So it‘s probably Val we have to blame for Daniel O‘Donnell er al.

well worth checking out. Support comes all the way from Bellshill. in the shape of John Miller's excellent Radio Sweethearts.
