I believe you should be crowned, "The King of Nottingham". Let all those who booed at you chew on that. ;-)

Wow, Chuck! Feel bad that I had no idea about your tooth, when Grace (my daughter) & I spoke to you and Stephie before and after the Sheffield gig. The gig was off the scale, anyway; that you pulled off a performance like that with toothache, is on another level. Respect!

It could have been alot worse! On codeine, you might have brought up British Dentists and teeth!

I suggest you contact the great sage Terry Adams of NRBQ on the Robin Hood deal. In all likelihood Terry will consult his ouija board to seek advice from his late "manager", pro wrestling great Captain Lou Albano ... Lou would know these things ...

You’re story is very funny, glad your tooth was saved by your better judgement via codeine and more comfy surroundings, even the graveyard took your mind off it:)

Great graveyard pic, Chuck. I just finished one of Henry Rollins' travel books, and these tales here in Substack are upbeat and hilarious in comparison. Keep 'em comin'.

Last time i went to the dentist with severe tooth ache they gave me a root canal in the wrong tooth and ended up having to pull out the cracked one anyway. That was 6 trips to the dentist in total, they are fecking awful in the UK. You made the right decision to hold out.

Robin Hood was from Leeds!@)

As a proud Yorkshireman, I can confirm that Robin is from Sheffield. Batman, however...

I’m so glad you decided to get a second opinion (about your tooth).

Wow, how you get around to all the gigs and have energy to put on a great show is a source of amazement to me and Dot. And drive on the wrong side the road and second-guess doctors - and stir up the locals with baseless conspiracy theories. You do it all, Chuck. Welcome back, and, knowing you, you can’t wait to get back over there. 🤘
