About me: Well, this is me and I've been rockin' and rollin' since I was about 15 years old. I'm not quite old enough to be a first time around 'Rock 'n' Roller' but I always used to jive at the local youth club with my mate Tina. That would be about 1964 I guess. As we got older, Tina and I would go to the local pubs where they always had bands on and again we'd be jiving all night. Then, as most of us of that era did, we married and raised our families.
I never lost my love of jiving or the music I always loved to dance to.
'Maggie's Blue Suede News' started as a single page newsletter back in July of 1997 based purely on my love of rock 'n' roll and jiving. It wasn't researched and there was no business plan, I just got fed up of collecting flyers everywhere I went, and when it was suggested to me: "why not start a newsletter? You do it for your job, why not do it for rock 'n' roll?" - I thought - why not?
So I did; and 'Maggies', the magazine, was born. It changed my life. Without it I would never have had so much fun, nor would I have met all the wonderful people whom I now count as my dearest friends. plain layout @ HOTFreeLayouts.com
A few weeks ago I backed up Don Woody at the 1st Rockabilly Bash. I did that with the Tri-Tones from Estonia. Here’s a video clip with his song “Barkin’ Up The Wrong Tree”.
At the same evening I released my 2nd album ‘Mixed Up”. I recorded this album with The Neva River Rockets from Russia, the Tri-Tones from Estonia and did two duets with U.S.A singer Karling Abbeygate.
