00:00:00First of all, I want to say a couple of thank yous to my mother who's on the door.
00:00:09She's been here since one o'clock. Don't thank her for her stamina, it's the way she is.
00:00:22She's a Ukrainian peasant girl. They make them tough over there.
00:00:28I also want to say a massive thank you to, I'm not sure if he's here,
00:00:33but we've run the Silk Merchants for 20 years and it would be impossible to have done it without Steve and his help.
00:00:45With all the art and the music, the hard part, the thanks part, is always getting the money.
00:00:57I want to thank Steve for making this happen for so many years.
00:01:02So this is kind of our home now, here with the hen and chicken.
00:01:12And I have a seatbelt.
00:01:15We were supposed to do this open mic night here, and I didn't really, really want to do it.
00:01:23I was kind of, well, I'm not sure, it seems like a lot of work.
00:01:28But we've run this open mic night and it's kind of weird.
00:01:33There are sometimes like 60, 70 people in the audience at an open mic night.
00:01:40As much as I would love to say, oh wow, it's me and Sarah.
00:01:46A lot of it is to do with Stuart and Shelley.
00:01:52They've lent a professionalism to kind of what we do and made this a really special thing.
00:01:59They've actually been really fucking cheap to do this event.
00:02:04Yeah.
00:02:06Stuart and Shelley.
00:02:13So I think it was a few months ago.
00:02:16I'm not sure how much of this story I should tell.
00:02:20Is it the good version or the bad version?
00:02:23The bad version.
00:02:25Is it about me?
00:02:27No.
00:02:32It's very embarrassing.
00:02:34Is it about you?
00:02:36Sort of.
00:02:37Give the bad version.
00:02:39So, my wife says to me, I ignore the entire world apart from three things.
00:02:49I notice flamenco on a poster from 200 yards away.
00:02:57Dog shit on a street.
00:03:01And a miniskirt.
00:03:04So we're playing in the Forest of Dean one evening.
00:03:09We're singing away.
00:03:12I like to think I'm all consumed in the music.
00:03:16And this young woman walks in.
00:03:20And I'm starting to look around and Sarah starts saying, you can't do that.
00:03:24What do you mean?
00:03:27She says, that's an Inca.
00:03:29I'm like, oh my god, I'm really sorry Sarah, really sorry.
00:03:32So then, the next day Anika comes and sings a couple of songs with us.
00:03:37And invites us round for coffee.
00:03:41So we're sat there on the sofa.
00:03:45It's like this high.
00:03:47And Anika's on this chair.
00:03:51Kind of like a queen, which is the way she always is.
00:03:55I can't remember exactly, but the way I remember it in my head is she kind of had a towel in her hair.
00:04:02But she still looked like a fucking queen.
00:04:06And we start to talk a bit about music, we've not seen each other for a long time.
00:04:10And I'm asking her what she's doing and stuff.
00:04:14And she's trying to describe it.
00:04:16Then she starts clicking her fingers.
00:04:19And singing a song, sat on this chair.
00:04:21And I honestly think it was one of the best fucking gigs I've ever been to.
00:04:26It was out of this world.
00:04:31And at the same time, my father said to me.
00:04:35I said, oh man, I saw Anika the other day.
00:04:37And she's singing this really great stuff.
00:04:39And he said, I saw the fucking Balloon Fiesta.
00:04:42And she's playing with it, I'm surprised they're fucking out of this world.
00:04:46So, I'm going to provide, for one time, me and my father are going to agree.
00:04:51And so can we please welcome, she's a fitting act for any headline show, absolutely anywhere.
00:04:59A great inspiration to me and to Sarah.
00:05:03The Anika Venus Band.
00:05:28Hello, everyone.

00:18:34Thank you
00:18:37Ladies and gentlemen, thank you, thank you very much
00:18:41Let me just introduce you to the band
00:18:44While I can remember the name
00:18:46Even though I don't drink, but I might be drunk later, you never know
00:18:52This young man here, to the left of me, looking at some little book
00:18:57Don't know what he's looking for
00:18:59That's all the ladies that give him phone number tonight
00:19:06It's Mr. Tom Selway, keyboard, saxophone and harmonica
00:19:15The pretty boy in the back, the most beautiful smile
00:19:19That's why I have him in the band, to make me look young and thin
00:19:23It's Mr. Dan Bolton, let's hear it for Dan on the drum
00:19:30And this pretty long hair one here
00:19:33It's just pretty people I have in the band
00:19:36Yes, everybody's just pretty, can you not see?
00:19:39And I told the camera guy to take my pretty side tonight
00:19:43Because if he doesn't, I'm not going to be happy
00:19:46So if you're taking video and pictures, make sure I look nice in it
00:19:54Mr. Matthew Dines on the guitar
00:20:04And the sexy bass, it's our newest band member
00:20:09This is his second gig with us
00:20:12He played with us last night and this is his second
00:20:15I can't remember his surname
00:20:17How do you pronounce it again?
00:20:19Bremner
00:20:21Cheap
00:20:25Mr. Clive Burner, please
00:20:28Burner on the bass, thank you
00:20:32I'm not good at pronouncing, I just sing
00:20:35Because when I talk, people don't really understand me
00:20:38So I just do the singing thing and keep it like that
00:20:46This one is called Portland Love
00:20:54And if you like what we're doing, anyone get up and dance

01:11:27Guys, it's been amazing. Let's hear it for Mr. Tom Selway, please.
01:11:46Dan on the drums. Matt on the guitar. Clive on the sex bass.
01:11:57I'm Onika Venus. Thanks for having us. Sarah, Elliot, you know, the sound is amazing.
01:12:04You make us sound lovely. So thank you, guys, for the wonderful sound that you give us tonight.
01:12:11Thank you. Really appreciate it. Guys, just give yourself a round of applause for coming out and support this wonderful event.
01:12:21Without you, this wouldn't happen. So thank you very much. We're Onika Venus.
01:12:26Album is here for sale. Sarah, I love your lungs. Love you, Elliot.
01:12:32Listen, if you play CDs, there are CDs here. Please buy a CD from these people. They're amazing.
01:12:36They're ten pounds each. You can afford to. Come on, they're right there.
01:12:49Thank you so much, everybody, for coming to the festival today. I know some of you turned up when doors opened and you've been here all day.
01:12:56So kudos to you. I hope you've had a really great time. Thank you for donating to Mind Your Music.
01:13:03I think we made a good amount of money today. Follow us on social media. Elliot, do you have anything to say?
01:13:10Yes, I believe that in 25 years of doing music, the most important thing is the quality of the audience.
01:13:21So thank you very much for listening. I'm also not quite as kind as I seem.
01:13:32This is a fundraiser and we will lose a lot of money from tonight.
01:13:37And for us to continue our work is really important.
01:13:42And it's a difficult time now. We don't have much money and stuff.
01:13:47You know, those are hard, hard times. They're on all of us.
01:13:52And many of you are of a certain age. You're a little bit below that.
01:14:07And some of you have concerns. You have children.
01:14:18And you're thinking it might be difficult because you don't think, oh, I'm just going to put a tenner in the hat.
01:14:23But then I've got kids and they need it more. And I'm kind of thinking what you need to get into your head is, fuck them.
01:14:31Absolutely. Fuck your children. It will be character forming for them.
01:14:37Put the tenner in the hat. They'll be stronger for it.
01:14:42Thank you very much. It's been a pleasure to be here with you.
