Kev Shields Thurs 6 Nov 2 Months ago  
Really looking forward to this talk. Video of Kev here:

and details here:

His accent is also brilliant- subtitles for those unused to West of Scotland dialect!

Really sorry to be missing this...off to work now for the backshift and Club night. Dammit.
To put Kev's Fast and Furious solo in context; Greg has a tooling wall at home and is regarded as a bit of a wad....he has climbed Scottish winter 8 so knows a bit about the tools. He describes F and F as brick hard and scary....he still can't link it on the lead. What Kev has achieved there (twice!) is right up there with the toughest/maddest stuff done on rock or ice in Scotland for ages.

Enjoy the talk and hope to see folk soon.

Bruce
