Well that is it.. I am officially 40, and what a great party that was, my favourite band playing all my favourite songs, I had an absolute blast. If anyone out there is thinking of hiring Bad Dobby, stop thinking about it and just do it. I would like to thank Rich and Terry for coming back from london to play for me when they actually had backstage festival tickets and missed a few great acts, I was very grateful.

John. Terry & Rich, I think you are all great and will see you all soon. Thanks again for my very special evening.

Rhona.

Really good night. Great voices, (including drummer!) Loved, loved, loved Chasing Cars - made me want to cry ... but in a good way! Hope to see you again soon.

Only downside - I hate Nelly the Blinkin Elephant with avengence, I was on the dancefloor and so felt compelled to dance ...therefore I do hold a slight grudge against you all!

Hi John, Rich & Terry

Just a quick note to say that we won't be able to see you at the Party in the Park today, but will be thinking of you and wish you the best of luck. Knock Wellingborough dead boyz!

Well done Dobbies for another brilliant night. Congratulations to Jody and Dave on their marriage and a lovely reception too. Good choice for Chasing Cars as your first dance! And who’d have thought I’d be dancing around to Nellie the Elephant at a wedding? Beats YMCA any day! I want to get married again just so I can have you guys play at my wedding – if only I can drag that bearded one away for two minutes!!
Anyway – nice one boys. Keep trumpety trumping away and I can’t wait to see you again soon
Love Liz xxx.

(P.S. Thank you thank you thank you Rich for not playing any Motown or Wigfield in the disco afterwards. It’s a first and such a welcome change from all the predictable disco crap we usually get. Rock on!

Hiya. Toby and I came along to your gig after hearing about you from Lynda and Neil.
We had a fab time.
Great set, was hoping to hear Rammstein and the like, but was perfect for the venue. Hope the regular Corby nutters didn't scare you too much.
Can't make it to the Shire on the 7th, cos we'll be at Wembley watching the Foos, hope to catch you again though.
All the best and continued success.

First time I've seen the band play, went with a few mates to see our old friend Terry prove he can actually play a guitar - let alone sing!

Anyway, was very surprised and really enjoyed it! Played some superb tracks especially a great Snow Patrol cover and some classic Green Day tunes.

Shame they had such a small space to be set up in at the Walnut :(

Definitely will see Dobby play again!

Congratulations on a great gig. And as for Tim aka Richard, Only 3 months on Bass!!!!! Very unlikely. Hope the 2/3rds of UK77 plus additional supporters weren,t too vocal but they tend to get like that when they see and hear good music.
We'll be Back in greater force next time.
Again well done, Excellent night, Great choice of Music (Even the Beatles one) and can i request The Cures, "She Sell's Sanctury" for next time.

recommended to see this band by a friend, (the drummer). Not really sure what to expect, very pleasantly suprised, early teething troubles with low vocal audio were more than made up for by superb presentation and excellent musical delivery, this together with a brilliant mixture of musical styles made for an enjoyable evening. Would i go to see this band again? YOU BET!!!
