David Vernon Concerts - North Staffs AC 20th - Stockport AC 21st
Sep., 13, 2010
 David Vernon - please click here! http://www.davidvernon.co.uk/David Vernon concerts next week...The versatile accordion entertainer David Vernon, from Edinburgh, is our guest artiste at Stockport AC on Wednesday 21st April. The concert takes place at Woodley Methodist Church, Chapel St, Woodley, Stockport SK6 1ND (J25, M60). We begin at 8pm, and the Stockport AC Band (MD Derek Stubbs) will open the show with a short spot.I have seen David a couple of times, and he is very impressive - a superb player, with a wide repertoire that incorporates music from all sorts of international traditions. In addition to Scottish, his programme might well include Russian, Polish, Romanian, Hungarian, Klezmer, Israeli, Greek, French, Irish, or indeed music from other parts of the world. He also plays the bagpipes and wears the kilt...so be prepared for anything! On top of all this, David is a natural wit and at last year's Blackpool festival had everyone rolling about with laughter.We could do with some supporting spots, and if you would like to play a tune or two please bring your box. On Tuesday 20th April David plays for North Staffs AC. This concert takes place, 8pm, at the Audley Theatre, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Staffs - not the Holditch Miners Club, as previously reported.David Vernon has performed at musical events, accordion clubs and festivals all over the UK and abroad, including the USA, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Poland, Iceland, the Middle East, Bangladesh, and others. In 2004 he was a guest at the prestigious ‘Rencontre Européene de l’Accordéon’ festival in Chartres, France. Rob.

Twenty years ago, Jim Boggio and Clifton Buck-Kauffman had a crazy idea. What if they put on a music festival in the small Northern California town of Cotati? And what if it was centered around the accordion — which Boggio played — and incorporated a mix of musical styles like jazz, polka, Cajun, gypsy, etc. Would people be interested? Could they pull it off?The answer is yes. Twenty times yes, in fact. This weekend, as they have for twenty years, accordion lovers from across the country and beyond will descend upon Cotati, CA, for the annual Cotati Accordion Festival. There will be two full days of accordion music, a tent dedicated to nonstop polka dancing, booths for accordion clubs and vendors, and, of course, the traditional Lady-of-Spain play-along accompanied by the release of white doves. Thousands attend every year and the non-profit festival raises important funds for local youth organizations.Performers at this year’s festival include:Dick ContinoFlaco JimenezLos TexmaniacsPolkacideThe Alex Meixner BandCulann’s HoundsTara Linda… and many more!Anna and I have been attending for more than ten years and we’ll be there again this year. If you see us wandering around, be sure to say hi!
