Jack Bruce

My Sister flew to the UK on Monday night  to meet the infamous Jack Bruce.  Jack was the bassist for the 60's band Cream and my sis has been fan for ages.  Last night she got the opportunity to meet him face to face - thanks to her befriending his daughter, Natascha on My Space a few years ago.

She was invited to join him in London for his Jack Bruce In Conversation with Neil McCormick.  They also auctioned a 'Fresh Cream' Vinyl signed by Jack Bruce, Eric Clapton & Ginger Baker!  I wonder if she did any bidding for it???




Her text to me this morning:  Met Jack last night up close - in between the hits, the interview and the q&a, he sang some rabbie burns (tears for me).  After it all, I met Jack backstage (tx 2 Mick!) and we got on so well, we all went out in to soho 4 dinner and some great wine. he's a colourful cheeky wee scot -just like me and you! What a night!
How awesome was that?  To follow your dream and drop everything to do it.

I'm sooo excited for you, Janie!

My question now is - who have you always wanted to meet face to face and why?

Pop in tomorrow and I'll tell you my answer to this.

Jack Bruce Dream



Last night I had a dream about Jack Bruce, former Cream bassist.

I dreamt that we were due to see one of his concerts on the Saturday night with my sister and all our friends and family. My sister is a HUGE fan and couldn't wait.

When we got to the concert, the set was him and his band behind a huge fully-stocked bar. One of the band memebers was playing bar-man and was pouring free drinks and cocktails for everyone and it was one huge party! The theatre was very small and it was only VIPs that were invited.



Jack invited my sister, Janie, to jam and sing with him on stage with her guitar and she was so happy. Apparently, he'd flown in from New York on the Friday, had a private dinner with my sister and asked her to marry him. She had kept it a secret from us. He announced at the concert to everyone that they were engaged!!





We were all thrilled for them but my dad was very concerned and Janie's current boyfriend and said to me "What about Mick?!".



Janie was so happy to be getting married to Jack Bruce!!



We had organised a huge inflatable slip and slide at the concert and we all changed into our swimming gear and all our friends were partying on this thing complete with bubbles. We had a great time and after the show Jack came to sit at our table and held my sister's hand and they were gazing into each other's eyes - clearly - so in love.



Strange or what?

I probably needed to awake up and go pee.
