Subject: Singaround Barton, Beds UK 21st April From: My guru always said Date: 15 Apr 03 - 06:57 AM Here's sonething to round off your Easter weekend - Come-All-Ye! Singaround / Session at the Bull Pub in Barton-le-Clay, Bedfordshire, UK (use postcode MK45 4LL for map search) on Monday 21st April, kicking off at 8.30pm ish. All acoustic instruments (up to & including shaky eggs or pringles shakers *sigh*) & voices very welcome at this cosy venue and we're always glad to see new faces :-) If the pub's busy they've promised to open up the back room for us! It's held fortnightly to run in tandem with the University of Luton music workshop which is hosted at the University on alternate Saturday mornings. Come if you can, but if you can't then perhaps you can come to the next one which will be on Monday 5th May :-) Yes, it'll be on the May Day bank holiday - everywhere else will be closed, so come & join us! |

Subject: RE: Singaround Barton, Beds UK 21st April From: GUEST,Ross Date: 16 Apr 03 - 03:57 PM Very good Sorry I can't be with you tonight in Croxley Green This week has left me with 3 working wheels on my car & manic depression Better start writing another song |
|
Subject: RE: Singaround Barton, Beds UK 21st April From: Piers Date: 17 Apr 03 - 03:34 AM Sorry about your song Ross, I feel bad about using your super song to my own ends or maybe that's the folk process, it was a work of pure guiness. Having three wheels on your car and manic depresion does sound like an excellent song subject. |
|
Subject: RE: Singaround Barton, Beds UK 21st April From: GUEST,Ross Date: 17 Apr 03 - 11:58 AM Well done Piers A brilliant song - is it in the mode of trad blues ie I,IV,V notation? Don't think it needs water main or identity crisis in it Carry on the good works & enjoy the wedding We will soldier on Did you know that Tony Blair brought his eyebrows from a shop in Harpenden? |

Subject: RE: Singaround Barton, Beds UK 21st April From: Mary Humphreys Date: 17 Apr 03 - 12:42 PM Help somebody! Confusion reigns. Who is Piers marrying? And why is it not his wedding? I think we should be told........ |

Subject: RE: Singaround Barton, Beds UK 21st April From: Piers Date: 17 Apr 03 - 02:42 PM Sorry Mary, a bit of confusion on my part, I'm not getting married at all, just going to a wedding of some people I've only met a couple of times. If it weren't for the free booze, I'd much rather be singing in Barton le Clay on Monday night, but those of us who share a Mudcat horizontal folk award for drinking must keep our hand in, at the noble art of good humoured debauchery. My co-awardee, Hil, will be getting lots of practice at the Miskin festival this weekend. Ross - I didn't know that about Blair's eyebrows, but I could show you where Eric Morecombe got his tobacco. Cheers Piers |

Subject: RE: Singaround Barton, Beds UK 21st April From: GUEST,Ross Date: 18 Apr 03 - 03:28 PM When I was a nipper, we went carol singing round Eric's house As I lived in Redbourn for first 23 years of my life He wasn't too impressed when Kevin Finn blew his trumpet at him And we were a bit puzzled why Kevin brought his trumpet along I use to walk through Rothampsted park as a short cut to the swimming pool That's why I'm genetically mutilated, sorry modified |
