Alan Doyle @alanthomasdoyle Thank u @Jackson_Triggs for two of the best nights ever. July 24 2016
The fans came from across Canada and America to see Alan Doyle and The Beautiful Gypsies at Jackson Trigg at Niagara. As a consequence there was a large range of wonderful words, totally gorgeous photographs and even a couple of bootlegs shared on social media.
While I don’t normally watch or circulate bootleg videos however, one of these bootlegs ‘The Rules Will All Be Broken’ by Bill Steeves is so beautiful, it just blew me away. The recording captures Alan Doyle singing lead vocals, supported by his band mates Kendel Carson and Todd Lumley and special guest Miranda Mulholland from Kendel’s other band Belle Starr playing fiddle.
Four songs were recorded by Barry Steeves of Alan Doyle and The Beautiful Gypsies. A couple of these like Testify don’t have particularly good sound, however I absolutely love the inclusiveness of all the band members and imagery of these recordings. They made me feel like I was right there in the front row experiencing Alan Doyle and The Beautiful Gypsies in all their glory. There are also two bootlegs of their special guests The Abrams.
I have circulated two bootlegs on my Google + page and provided direct links here for those interested. They are from the YouTube account of Bill Steeves. Many thanks for sharing.

There were lots of excellent photos taken by fans. However, I really like these two which were circulated on social media. The first one is from the official Twitter accounts of The Abrams and the second one from Barry Canning. Many thanks for sharing and no copyright infringement intended.
