I'm hoping to get some acoustic versions of my songs up on this 'web-site', once I've figured out how to use this wretched computer properly.
My dog, Billy, bought it for me for Christmas. When he told me he was getting "something with a keyboard" I got rather excited and thought I was finally going to get my hands on a Roland Electric piano (the plinky noises they make is almost heavenly!). But no, it was just this wretched typing box.
My wife would have bought me a Roland! She used to dance like the wind. Ooh, that would make a good song: 'Dancing with your wind'.
Oh yes.
My wife is dead now.
Now, I know some of you may have come to this 'web-site' specifically to find out about me - and some of you probably got here accidentally whilst looking for porn, but thanks for being here all the same.
If you want to get in touch, I have a 'My-Space' page:
www.myspace.com/tommy leghorn and I also have an 'ee-mail' address: tommyleghorn (at) ruthpickett. co. uk
Although please, if you're a stalker, don't 'ee-mail' me. Just stay the hell away. I had problems for many years with a very persistent stalker called Johnny. He would follow me everywhere and try to pull at my beard. There was also the drunken incident in the cloakroom, that I don't like to speak about. I was off my tits on shandy and I thought he was my wife, ok?!
My wife is dead now.
Right, I'd better be off. I have a gig tonight outside the Pilkington public loos, and I haven't worked out my set list yet.
I'll definitely be playing 'Widdling in public places' (rather appropriate given the venue!) but I'm also thinking about trying out my latest single, 'My wellies are my friend'.
Bye for now!
Hello there. My name is Tommy Leghorn.
I am a man.
I'm also a folk singer/songwriter - I've been performing in the Pilkington and surrounding area for over twenty years now. I once performed in field to a herd of cows. It was a pretty good gig, actually - they went mad for my 'I like milk' song.
You may also know my name from such popular albums as 'Jigging in Wensledale', 'Why is my penis shaped like an elbow?' and my seminal eighties classic, 'HELP ME, I'M SAD'.
That particular album did of course feature a song which turned out to be an Ibiza club classic: My dog is a dancing dog (re-mixed by Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince)
