title The Whiskey Shivers at The Crown, Burston, Norfolk - 1st August 2018 intro Texas band "Whiskey Shivers", who we'd seen playing to a few hundred at WoW festival a few weeks ago, had gone on to appear before 4,000 at Womad and were following that up with an appearance at the Cambridge Folk Festival. However, almost implausibly, in between these "stadium" gigs they were playing at the Burston Crown, and so we were there having cycled over for a night of crazy music and beer in the sweltering pub - most likely the lowest-ceilinged venue the band has ever experienced. Isobel happens to mention to the band after the gig that she "was in Cambridge the next day and could stop by to say hello" when they were playing at the Folk Festival, and only goes and manages to wangle an invitition including free entry. Thus she gets to see them for the third time and then hang out at the festival catching some more of the Thursday warm up. img-20180802-wa0001 Isobel sees the Whiskey Shivers at Cambridge Folk Festival img-20180802-wa0002 Bobby Fitzgerald says hi to Isobel imgp2446 The Ludlam Pikes play the support slot imgp2450 Banjo playing action imgp2451 Isobel at the bar imgp2453 Sandie, Gaz and John have a beer imgp2457 The Shivers set up imgp2460 The busy view through the window is like a collage imgp2462 Thumb's up from the Shivers' James Bookert imgp2463 The pub is packed imgp2465 The band is announced imgp2479 The Whiskey Shivers kick off their set imgp2481 Cheers for beers imgp2485 The band in the Burston Crown imgp2488 Some serious guitar imgp2500 Crazy double-bass action imgp2504 Bobby Fitzgerald looks around imgp2509 Andrew Van Voorhees on double bass takes a break imgp2514 It's time for tequila imgp2532 Jeff Hortillosa on guitar imgp2542 Bobby Fitzgerald plays a bit of harmonica imgp2547 More Jeff Hortillosa imgp2555 Orange light outside makes an other-wordly scene imgp2562 Joe Deuce in the rhythm section imgp2583 More Trashgrass action imgp2589 The band is filmed by mobile phone imgp2592 Jeff Hortillosa does a singing spot imgp2597 The string section imgp2599 More from the Shivers imgp2614 The band has finished their set imgp2620 Billy Fleming starts the packing down imgp2621 After the gig, Billy Fleming dismantles the PA imgp2628 Banjo player James Bookert, with a super-fan imgp2633 Something weird with feet kissing occurs imgp2637 James Bookert gives an impromptu banjo lesson imgp2639 A demonstration of banjo chords imgp2649 Isobel and Hannah with Jeff Hortillosa imgp2651 The pub is almost empty
