Leroy Day is back and my favourites, Honk, will be playing. Here is Billy announcing plans for 2022.
Delighted to announce that Leroy Day will be returning after a 2 year absence and will be taking place as it has done since the first one 27 years ago on first Sunday in May. It will in essence be a delayed 25 year celebration of keeping this whole thing going in memory of our dear friend Leroy.
More details to follow but put 1st May at PJ Malloys in your diaries folks. It’s always Dunfermline’s number one musical extravaganza. ❤

Leroy.Original Honk line up.“Honk against our back drop. A lassie from New Zealand who was touring Scotland did it in the cellar of The Spider’s Web where I was working at the time. Cost us 2 pints of guinness and a bar lunch. 🤣💙” – Billy George.
Headliners TwinsTown and all the acts performing at the Whanga Records Christmas Party this Sunday, 19th December, at PJ Molloys, Dunfermline, have decided to donate the ticket money to CLOUD Fife, a community group that supports vulnerable people on our own doorstep.
TwinsTown and Whanga Records were discussing various good causes they’d like to support, including homeless charities, when the MC for the forthcoming Sunday spectacular, Billy George, mentioned his support for CLOUD Fife.
Everyone agreed immediately and Billy told me, “this is a very worthwhile cause with every penny going to help the needy have a better quality of life and to have the things the more fortunate among us take for granted”.

“We hope, and expect, PJs will be rammed on Sunday as the people of Dunfermline always support a worthwhile cause,” Billy continued, “and we have a fantastic line up.”

Looking at the poster, Billy is right, the bill for Sunday is fantastic.
