From 'A. Plummer':-
Dear Councillor,
Well done!
What a great lark!
An r-and-b concert
To be held in Vale Park*.
With drums, harps and guitars,
They'll be strutting all their stuff.
Make sure the publicity's
Professional enough.
See the whole nation
Get sand in their shoes,
On the banks of the Mersey
With rhythm and blues.
Ensure there's no litter
Near this gig that you've brought us,
And let the nation enjoy
Our own muddy waters.
My mouth is now droolin',
My goosebumps are chillin'
When I read about one guy
Who does nothing but Dillon.
If they need some words
For the tunes they've composed
They can reach me through you
My address I've enclosed.
I'd be on stage myself,
But I'm just a strummer.
But I'll play air guitar,
Nice one!
Name and address supplied.
* They r-and-b concert is being held in Vale Park, Wallasey, this Saturday and Sunday (July 10/11).
