On Sunday 20th May the Woodberry welcomed back Steve Swinnerton. On his last visit to the Woodberry he was accompanied by his brother Jim and they sang a variety of covers to a full packed house. This time round Steve was alone as his brother is touring Australia. Once more it was a full house as Steve took to the stage for his solo debut. With a touch of nerves he opened with the Stereophonics classic 'Have A Nice Day'. This was to be followed with tracks by the likes of REM, Paul Simon and even an Elton John track. The night was a success for the crowds who had come to see Steve and I am sure with his following he will soon pack the Woodberry again.
Back by popular demand is a long standing saying in the entertainment business, but sure enough Steve was back within a week at the Woodberry. This time it was a Saturday night, and true to form it was a Swinnerton packed night. Simular play list but the audience loved it this man is a person to watch and sure to pack local pubs with a big following.

With a happy man who likes his local, and is still early in development in the Bridgnorth Gig guide I apologise in advance the next review is again from the Woodberry. So I do ask if you have a review please submit it

Sunday 28th May it's Woodberry time and the entertainment for tonight is Mirage. Veteran gig followers will know this man better as Ricky.

Despite a quiet start in the Woodberry the gig started at 9.15 and instantly the audience knew this was a man who knew what vocals were all about. With a first half set including Amarillo, Buttercup and Under My Skin the audience built up and suddenly a quiet night was a busy and active one. Let me tell you now this man reminds me of the late ' Freddie Mercury' not in vocals... please. But he has that forte of getting the audience in the palm of his hand, he is definitely an audience active man. His repertoire may not be modern but believe me he packs a punch. Having never seen Mirage (or Ricky) before I would ask does the 'Ricky' bit come from the following of the once infamous Ricky Martin, if so maybe the name change is for the best because he is far better than that, if not I apologise.

I must say despite my praise of the first set the return for the second was better. He definitely believes in customer satisfaction, this is not a performer who sings what he wants to, or keeps a fixed set, this man gives you what the audience wants. Audience participation was a big part of the second set, and the audience loved him. If you get the chance to see him it will be a great night, if you can book him do, but this man has a well packed diary.
