Thread Name: Rochester Sweeps Festival - Sessions ?
Subject: RE: Rochester Sweeps Festival - Sessions ?
No. It aint in a pub, no such luck. Its in the front room of the Star Hill Function Rooms (used to be Conservative club) Times are (all three days)
12:30-14:30 & 20:30 23:00
BUT!!!Evening session will have to contend with dances held in main stage area, which is seperated from front by the bar area only -no dividing walls (& no real ales!)
John Matthews is running sing-a-rounds in The Vic & Bull (Great Expectations Bar)15:00-17:00 (music session hosted by John Smedley 20:45-23:00)Organisers are being lobbied as we speak, but I guess that their response will be same as last few years - that we are free to run one ourselves if we find a venue. With no advanced publicity that will mean just three or four poor souls singing to themselves in a back room somewhere, hidden from view & out of earshot of folks looking for just such a session.
