Not, sadly, on the Rame Peninsula - we'll have to await their return in the spring; a May 2011 tour is being planned, with our neck of the woods included in stopping off points, I hope. Debs - if you read this (and I know that I get the occasional virtual visit from the Gigspanner household), please try to avoid Whitsun weekend; that clashes with Chippenham Folk festival and the Wreckers (including me) will be away strutting our stuff.
Meantime a new album is in the offing. I get the impression that it's a live one from Debs' description: "The new album 'Doors at Eight' was recorded during Gigspanner's May/June tour, and there are hopes that it will be ready for release during the forthcoming tour. One highlight of the album is the beautiful didgeridoo playing of Joe Caudwell on 'Sharpe goes Walkabout', who was a special guest of the band during their gig at the Quay Arts Centre, Isle of Wight. "
