Photo Hunt - Entertainment
The theme for this week's Photo Hunt is entertainment. In the absence of new photos here are some concert photos of my favourite musician Robyn Hitchcock
This is Robyn performing Airscape, the nearest thing the not-wife and I have to an "our song"
And this is Madonna of the Wasps (it gets started proper at around 1 minute), The nearest thing I have to a repeatable nickname for the not-wife!
But she calls me Balloon Man.. Damn I need to lose weight!

I like this week's theme a lot. I'm seeing different form and glimpses of entertainment. Lol on Balloon Man. I need to trim down, too. Happy weekend!
LOL about balloon man.
Great take on theme. It is fun one this week.
Love the shirts :)
Great shots. Music is at the top of the pile as far as entertainment goes, for sure.
That funny photo of Ted ignoring the comic would work for this theme too. :) I have a tuxedo cat too, named Maria.
Have a good weekend.
Thsnks for introducing Robyn Hitchcock to me. I enjoyed the Balloon Man
We have a wide range of names for our family members. Not too familiar with Robyn Hitchcock. Interesting. Prefer Andy Stewart :)
THanks everyone

Don't we all Jams? Need to lose weight.
I don't know this singer but he is obviously a favourite of yours.
Happy weekend Jams
Were the Hitchcock pix taken in a nightclub?

THanks everyone,
Ren the photos were taken at 4 different venues:
Two were at veues holding 500-1000 people
two were at a pub in Lonond that had a capacity of less than 100. He does MSF charity concerts at a pub calle dthe Three Kings in Clerkenwell, London. It holds around 100 people
I have never heard of Robyn until today. :)
Hey, Balloon Man, you can let go some air so as to look slimmer. :P
Balloon Man, lol.
Robyn seems interesting :)
regards to your not-wife :)
Great photo share for the theme this week. I love the lighting capture on the very top photo.

That first photo is incredible... Sounds like a fun time for sure! :)
"Balloon man" not really nice, snicker :D
The shots are cool, looks like an interesting artist to go to concerts to :)
Great photos for the theme :-)
The top shot is fantastic! And they're all great entertainment.
Nice set of photos. And what an interesting collection of printed shirts that he has!
I went a totally different direction with my "entertainment" photo. Maybe I am just easily entertained?

Thanks everyone!
Great post, Jams! It looks like you got some nice, close shots of your favorite musician (which is usually difficult to do when everyone is dancing and jostling for position near the front!).
I don't know much about his music but I love his shirts, especially the ones in the first three pictures.
