Leadfoot T takes to the stage of the Deal Astor theatre to support the great John Otway.
John Otway ( with Wild Willy Barrett ) first achieved notoriety with an eye-watering performance on Old Grey Whistle Test and subsequent hit single 'Really Free' in 1977.
Otway's heady mix of blind ambition and rank incompetence was to keep this microstar shining for almost two decades despite his ability to turn any situation to his own disadvantage. His autobiography 'Rock and Roll's Greatest Failure' out sold, by a factor of ten, all the records he had released since his hit.

' Otway still bounces around like a little lad promised sweets as he reveals himself as possibly the most unlikely Eurovision entrant ever and dons electronic percussion pads that allow him to body-pop while playing his other toy, a theremin, like a demented but adorable twit ' - Edinburgh Festival Review
