I first saw Dr. Feelgood on The Old Grey Whistle Test, & was then lucky enough to see them a few times at Friars, Aylesbury when Wilko Johnson was still with them.  After moving from Aylesbury, the Feelgoods were the first band I went back to see.  Then, after a long gap, I caught up with them again on an Otway Dunkerque weekend.

Dr. Feelgood are frequently included in the Rock ‘n’ Blues Weekends at Butlins in Skegness (see ‘Events’).  Here they are in 2008.

In May 2010, They, and a number of former band members, played at the Lee Brilleaux Memorial Show at The Oyster Fleet, Canvey.

I joined the French ‘Pub Rock Legends Tour’ for a few gigs towards the tail-end of the tour at the end of October 2011.  The tour featured Classic & Troubles, Eddie & The Hot Rods, Nine Below Zero, and Dr. Feelgood.  I first caught up with them in Le Transbordeur, in Lyon.

Next stop, two days later, was Le Fil in St. Etienne.

On the way to the next venue, I stopped at a very impressive bird park.

I took my leave of the tour in La Rodia, Besancon.  The bands had a further two gigs on the tour, but I was to go home to prepare a birthday celebration.

It was almost like getting a home visit from the doctor, as Dr. Feelgood came to The Horns in Watford.  Support was by The People’s Republic Of Mercia, whom I’d last seen at The Horns in September 2010 supporting Wilko Johnson.  (12/033, Thursday 15/3/2012)

Due to other commitments, I was only able to catch one leg of the 2012 British Pub Rock Tour in Reims.  This first Album covers part of the journey.

The actual Venue in Reims was Kabaret in the suburb of Tinqueux.  This year’s Line-up was Dr, Feelgood, Eddie & The Hot Rods, and Nine Below Zero, i.e. without the French openers.  (12/109, Thursday 18th October 2012).
