Support acts were the excellent Passion Singers and, also marking a 30th anniversary (the release of the album
Out of the Harbour) Tom Morton and Graeme Duffin.
Graeme and Tom hadn't played together for 28 years at least. They met for a brief rehearsal (with Tom's son James on bass)
last Friday. Although Graeme's daughter Esther (O'Connor) has been a guest several times on the Tom Morton Show
(BBC Scotland) and also used to be in the band Ashton Lane with another of Tom's sons.

Brennans Late Lounge - Perth Scotland 8th May 2009
JJ is touring around the UK playing some old and some new trax from his albums,
Graeme played accoustic guitar and did backingvocals and Phil Kane was on Keyboard.
Graeme told me about this gig and, as I was coming to Scotland with my friend, if we wanted to come and see them.
I asked a few of my friends, who were staying with us at our hotel, if they wanted to join us and they were delighted too.
We all had a fabulous night, JJ's music and lyrics are brilliant and it was great to finally see him and hear his songs live.
The Banter between songs were sometimes Hilarious, the atmosphere in the totally filled up pub was wonderfull,
everyone was clapping and singing along.
BIG thanks to JJ for making this such a wonderful night, also thanks to both guys for the chat, the wine and signing my CD :)
I would love to come over to see you again JJ, you're amazing.
