Poetic licence for Friday folkie

11:32am Thursday 17th July 2008

A folk singer playing Keighley this Friday is so good that he's even inspired poetry.

Dave Vermond, a regular at the Baccapipes Folk Club, has been the subject of odes by Yorkshire poet Adrian Spendlow.

The self-confessed "Vermond stalker" calls Dave humorous, moving, hilarious and gregarious.

Adrian writes: "It's a crying shame, this feller isn't the biggest thing ever."

Check out yourself at the Baccapipes in Keighley Ukrainian Club, 9 Henry Street, off Cavendish Street, from 8.30pm.
