Herga is a walk-in and non-smoking club (drinks are bought in the bar downstairs). We usually have one guest a month, and run the other Mondays as singarounds (instruments welcome), except that on 2 September we have Packie Byrne with Breda McKinney, and on 23 September we have Mudcat's own Rick Fielding. And we don't meet on Bank Holidays.

I've just been sent the forthcoming programmes for Musical Traditions and the Cellar Upstairs, and they both look pretty good. And if you're thinking of going to the Old Rose and Crown, Patterson, Jordan, Dipper will be launching their Flat Earth CD there on 5 September. Alternatively you can see Ralphie as a Fraser sister at the Cellar Upstairs on 16 November. The new venue is The Cock Tavern, 23 Phoenix Road, NW1 1HB (on the corner of Chalton Street, near King's Cross and Euston stations)8.15 on Saturdays, from 7 September.
