Photograph? When/where? Maybe the excitement was all a bit much for me, but I don't recall a photo?

Old black and white, A2/A3 sized photo lent on one of the speakers center stage. It was on Rachael's chair right at the start with its own mircophone!

Ah, well that at least would explain why I didn't see it :P I had a tall chappie with a large pink wig right in front of me  So I could see both sides but not straight ahead! Still, curious to hear the answer nonetheless - you've intrigued me now (bad Trunkles!)

Squeezy did tell me but it was dark and noisy and i may have drunk whisky....
I was just in front of the tall lad with a pink wig but i had real pink hair. if you bought any merch it's likely i sold it to you!

He's called Uncle Gus, and not, as some have suggested, Tom Van Eyken
He cost us 50p from a second hand charity shop in Brighton earlier this year - he's become a bit of a mascot.

Ah yes, we exchanged a few words as I recall  My mate was the one that bought a medium men's t-shirt (she's female), and you were giving advice about how to alter it I thought the hair was red? Small world!

I loved the hair EPD, much cooler and less threatening than the scary pink wig haha!
As I had also had an alcoholic beverage or two I'm ashamed to say I asked Jim Moray to sell me a Bellowhead tshirt before realising at the last minute, duuuuh, still he was nice about it!
Uncle Gus has mesmo-eyes! I've seen him around onstage a few times, assumed he was some kind of good-luck charm! Do all the tin toys have names as well?

Thanks Squeezy, mystery solved!

P.S. Mmmmmm, I can see the Van Eyken connection now you come to mention it!

LOL Ah yes, been wondering about him. He was up front at Cambridge as well, but I'd forgotten what was said about him.
Is there any news about when the DVD is likely to be released? Early days yet, but I can't wait!

The picture was definitely there on 24th September. I think the only other Cambridge dates this year were at the Folk Festival... I didn't notice him there, but that could have been because I was a bit overexcited.

Must have done the whole tour, I spotted it at Ipswich at the front of the stage. Meant to ask about it but the trauma of the bar running out of IPA must have made me forget.
