The Boat Inn

August Round-up

IMG_0396
Whilst Tom was busy in August - this wasn't reflected on this page! So, here is a quick round up of his public gigs last month.

The previous post made mention of Tom's performance in Morpeth Market Place on 3rd August, which seemed to go down well. Not only did he get lots of great feedback on the day, but he has subsequently received enquiries about purchasing further copies of "crescendo" and "Il Divino".

Hi we bought "Crecendo" a few weeks ago in the market place Morpeth. A real treat for us to stand and listen to Tom singing! We bought this CD and wish we had bought them both!

We are working on a face lift and re-launch of Tom's website, and very much hope to be able to make his CDs available for purchase online.

On both 10th and 24th August, Tom performed at The Boat Inn at Kielder, entertaining holidaymakers at Leaplish. He sang from all parts of his repertoire and was taking requests. Regulars won't be surprised that Tom ended the night with people up and dancing! They were great nights in a lovely setting. The summer season at Leaplish has drawn to a close, with the end of the school holidays, but Tom hopes to return to the Boat Inn again.

31st August saw Tom back at Marabini's once again! Marabinis is never dull, and there was a great atmosphere. Tom gave an extended set of his classical repertoire, and was in good form.

Tom's family were there celebrating his Dad's birthday, so it was a great opportunity to sing Happy Birthday to his Dad, and put the traditional Sombrero on his head!

Tom's next public performance is on
26th September - back at Marabini's! He'll hope to see you there!

Back at The Boat again...

Tom was back again on Wednesday night at The Boat Inn, Leaplish Waterside Park, Kielder. He entertained diners with a varied repertoire, and received some lovely feedback. Joe and Marion Haskin, came along from Amble, just because they had seen Tom was going to performing, and enjoyed his playlists, and a chat with Tom!

The Boat (and Tower Knowe) feature in today's Journal, where the announcement was made of Richard Sim's appointment as executive chef at both venues -
you can read the article here. The Boat has a future as a high quality gastro-pub to look forward to, and few could boast a more spectacular back drop!

Tom is performing at a couple of private functions this weekend, but you can catch his next public gig at
Marabini's in Morpeth on Saturday 20th April from about 8:30pm. They are always great nights at Marabini's, so call them now for a table!!

The Boat Inn

The Boat Inn
Last night Tom Wyllie, North East Singer performed for the first time at The Boat Inn at Leaplish Waterside Park, Kielder. Not surprisingly, the cold and snow meant it wasn't as busy as usual, but those who were there were an appreciative audience and were treated to a range of songs from Tom's repertoire, who was delighted with all the feedback he received.

The Boat Inn is situated right on Kielder Water - it's a beautiful spot, and The Boat is not just there for residents of the lodges and caravans in the forest. The food is first class, and the welcome very friendly - it's a lovely place to spend an evening. So why not come along next time Tom is on -
Wednesday, 10th April 2013 from 7pm. To reserve a table ring 01434 251000.

Lynn's libations and Laura's lungs….

Tom Wyllie Marabinis 16thMarch2013
On Saturday, Tom Wyllie, North East Singer, was back at Marabini's Ristorante in Morpeth. Another great night ensued! There seemed to be lots of birthday celebrations - including one on Tom's own table of family and friends - Happy Birthday Lynn!

As you see, Tom himself ended up wearing the birthday hat! Also there was Tom's old swimming coach - Laura Brown, who claims that much of Tom's singing is down to her training. Holding him under water helped to increase his lung capacity!! Thanks Laura!

Tom will be back at Marabini's on Saturday 20th April 2013. Before that though, you can see him at a new venue for Tom - The Boat Inn, Kielder. He will be there on Wednesday 27th March 2013 from 7pm.

Snow go for Burn's Night

Marabini Birthday
Tom Wyllie, North East Singer, was booked for a prestigious private event on Saturday. It was to be a Burn's Night dinner, albeit a day late, however, it was in quite a remote spot, and the organisers took the decision on Burn's Night proper (Friday) to cancel.

This was a great disappointment for all concerned, but, not wishing to miss out on a rare free saturday night, Tom went to Marabini's for dinner to celebrate his birthday! It was the first time Tom had been just to dine - he normally sings! Still, Natasha Magee, singer for the night, got Tom up to sing. We all had a great night, and our thanks to the wonderful staff there, and of course to Natasha.

You can catch Tom there this
Saturday, 2nd February, for another great night's entertainment.
