Danny was one of the best known and best loved persons on the Scottish folk music scene. He was involved in virtually every good folk festival in Scotland; people chose their festivals just by his name. His popular Open Stages are legendary. He had a great sense of humour, he knew how to get on with people, he always wore the ugliest ties and a bonnie bonnet. On Sunday, 5th July 1998, Danny Kyle has passed away. He leaves a gap in the Folk Music World that will hardly ever be filled. Hopefully a bit of his spirit will live on in the international folk music scene. Coming soon there will be a tribute to the great work and musicianship of Danny in His hometown of Paisley Beginning on the 28June 2008 and ending on the 5th July(sma shot day) The oldest working class festival on the planet!! This Site was set up by His son Rikki Kyle and his friend and Mick Daly. If you would like to play at this momentous festival Drop us a line!!

David Franks: Walkabouts Verse





May 15 2009 8:12 PM

(Hi: enjoyed my visit.)

After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on myspace...

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse
(please see my blog):
WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN

Once drove an old sedan, up north,
From a place in Sydney to Cairns;
Then to Kuranda I went forth,
By train, to look without set plans.

I browsed through the trendy market,
With fresh fruits of tropical kind;
Walked to the creek through lush thicket -
Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.

I dined in a scenic cafe;
Then, outside, as I wrote for yen,
Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey,
You go walkabout with your pen.”

Request or question, I don’t know -
Assured voices, elderly men.
That’s now several years ago,
And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.

(C) David Franks 2003

Thanks for the friendship. Love your profile page & we really enjoyed being part of the Danny Kyle Open Stage on Sunday 18th Jan 2009.
We had a great experience playing among other artists who shared the Danny Kyle Stage.

Heya,

If you're not up to anything on Friday, I'm starting my residency at Scotch Corner (next door to The Clutha Vaults) on Stockwell St. I'll be playing each Friday night from 9.30 onwards. A mix of my own stuff and some covers (but no fucking pop-hits!).
