19 Nov 09 - 04:08 AM (#2769011) Subject: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Hamish Just taking a straw poll... ...anybody fancy an early evening singaround in Central London? I'm thinking that by starting at 7pm (or earlier? 6.30? 6.15?) we commuters could have a couple of hours and still be home at not-too-late-o'clock. Your input gratefully received but here's my initial thoughts: I've identified a perfect venue: quiet upstairs bar, not too big, not too small. It's at the north end of Waterloo Bridge so ideal for those commuting into Waterloo and Charing Cross. Handy for tube lines to everywhere else. End of The Strand adjacent to Covent Garden/Aldwych. We can have it for free on quiet nights (i.e. probably Mondays unless a paying customer wants to pay real money for it) Bombardier and London Pride on tap. The Pride is excellent. I could perhaps bring a "house" guitar. I'm working in Somerset House for a few months, so it'd be - for me, at any rate - an occasional and probably short-term commitment. But I'd be more than happy to set up a trial one-off and take it from there. Realistically, we might be looking at the new year, but I'm sort of hoping we could squeeze in Monday 30th November if there's enough interest. Your constructive thoughts more than welcome. But, more than that, your strong commitment to support it would be excellent! Either post to this thread or pm me. Let's do it! |

19 Nov 09 - 08:52 AM (#2769144) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: GUEST,matt milton Definitely. I work in Shellmex House, 80 Strand. Is that the Savoy Tup you're thinking of? I've often thought of going in there and asking about putting on acoustic gigs... I even have a travel guitar under my desk, which can be whipped out at a moment's notice for lunchtime practice in the basement. Send me a PM - keep us posted! |

20 Nov 09 - 11:43 AM (#2769851) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Hamish Pierre: I've opted to go for a "start singing" time of 6.15: although I'll probably get there more like 6. I expect people will drift in (and out) pretty constantly throughout the following couple of hours (or more!). And that's fine. We won't be chastising late arrivals or early leavers. In a way, that's the whole point of it: to be "commuter friendly". Plus, being free to get in, there's no need to "get your money's worth". Here's the text of the poster: Acoustic/singers' open night Monday 30th November, from 6.15pm Commuter-friendly early evening session All styles of unplugged music welcome – folk, singer/songwriter etc. Come and join in: bring your voices, instruments and/or ears ...but please show consideration during performances Free entry: just buy yourself some drinks! At The Savoy Tup, 2 Strand Street, The Strand WC2R 0BA Excellent, friendly pub with great beers and dedicated upstairs music room. I'm getting a very good feeling about this... ~8^) |

From: Hamish There are no dress code expectations, Morris-ey, although the wearing of flip-flops and shorts may make the wearer feel conspicuous. There is no expectation on when people should get there or for how long they stay. It's commuter friendly with the accent on friendly. Even those who pop in for a quick half and "merely" join in on a chorus or two will be most welcome. There is only one rule: that everyone is respectfully quiet during turns. ~8^) |

24 Nov 09 - 06:32 AM (#2772440) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: matt milton I'm going to try to take some posters into Kings College today lunchtime. Their music department is on the Strand. I figure they must have a noticeboard somewhere. Question is, as a greying 35-year-old, can I still pass muster as a student to stroll past the security guard? I figure I'm scruffy enough to exude a 'mature student' aura - I do work in book publishing after all. Maybe I'll do LSE too. |
|
24 Nov 09 - 06:35 AM (#2772441) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Mo the caller Good luck with it, (bit far from Cheshire) Is it going to be every week? You said "We can have it for free on quiet nights (i.e. probably Mondays unless a paying customer wants to pay real money for it)" so what happens if there is a paying customer? It might be a good idea to negotiate how much notice the landlord will give you - if you are providing him with regular drinkers he ought to be willing to give you some security. |
|
24 Nov 09 - 06:44 AM (#2772447) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Hamish Many imponderables at the mo, Mo. If we have a full room of free-spending, free-thinking, free-singing, free-drinking happy punters and punterettes then we'll be in a strong position. If there's only three or four of us sipping a half to make it last all night, then our position will be a little less strong... ...weekly might be pushing things. Maybe fortnightly. As I said in the first post it's a trial one-off for now and we'll take it from there. Some posters have already said they'll come in January or March or not Mondays so there are all sorts of possibilities. |

25 Nov 09 - 01:08 PM (#2773517) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Crow Sister (off with the fairies) "can I still pass muster as a student to stroll past the security guard?" If questioned, just ask casually where the Dean's office is (or some such thing..) Never paid yet to get into Kings Cambridge - but then the man I've visited with (& who's blagged the security) does have a confident public school persona, teamed with suitably scruffy appearance. |

27 Nov 09 - 03:54 AM (#2774708) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Hamish Thanks, Pierre. Just a final reminderette for those of you who might be planning to come on Monday and who only access the web from work... Yes, it's The Savoy Tup in Savoy Street. Yes, it starts at 6.15pm. Yes, you can arrive earlier if you like. No, you won't be reprimanded for turning up late. Nor will you be chastised for leaving early. Yes, there will be a very decent 'house' guitar available. Yes, it's in the upstairs room, so: No, we won't be mixing with "half cut suits who have been lording it up all afternoon" See you Monday! Don't forget to arrange your pass with whomsover issues you with these items!! Cheers Hamish ~8^) |

27 Nov 09 - 05:19 AM (#2774747) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Hamish A house fiddle? I think Matt is bringing a mandolin. Not sure if he'll be willing to lend it out, but perhaps if I vouch for your suitability, Sal... |
|
27 Nov 09 - 05:39 AM (#2774758) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: matt milton well, I suppose I could in theory bring a fiddle. I was planning on bringing a banjo and mandolin, which others are welcome to use. Carrying 3 instruments is a bit of a stretch, but I've done it before and will no doubt do it again. Put it this way: are you definitely coming? |
|
27 Nov 09 - 06:57 AM (#2774786) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: GUEST,SallyM Don't worry, I'll try and remember to bring one in, but thanks anyway Matt. Trouble is, on the few occasions I have done this before, having slipped back into usual automatic-commuter-zombie mode I have been known to leave my fiddle on the train. Fortunately due to a lot of luck and having some personal contacts with railway staff I have managed to retrieve them again, but I'm sure my luck will run out at some point. Maybe I'll just stick to unaccomplished singing. Sal |

01 Dec 09 - 04:16 AM (#2777322) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Hamish Thanks for that, Terry. Yes - great fun indeed. We had a maximum of 13 people - 11 singers and two non-combatants - in the room and a great mix of material and styles. Loads of choruses, great banter. And the venue is perfect. Just the right size, cosy enough but plenty of room to not be bashing instruments on hard objects. Plenty of chairs with no arms, too, for instrumental convenience! Nice and quiet, great acoustics. Beer was indeed superb. And the main objective - that of spending enough behind the bar to make sure we'll be welcomed back - was achieved due in no small part to Woodsie and Peter ;-) So, yes, a more than promising intial foray and I'm looking forward to another early in the new year. ~8^) |

|
02 Dec 09 - 04:07 AM (#2778219) Subject: RE: Central London commuters' singaround? From: Hamish Well, Stallion, the quick answer is this: dunno. They won't be as often as weekly. They'll be at least monthly. It depends on a number of imponderables. Like the state of the pub's diary (football and other private functions and whatever) and the state of my diary (unless someone else(s) want to share the responsibility of the not very onerous tasks involved in liaising with the pub and being there to kick proceedings off.) We haven't necessarily settled on a day of the week, although Mondays look favourite because of football (they don't have Sky who do Monday matches) I sort of have my eye on Monday 11th January for the next one. |

From: Pierre Le Chapeau Well done to Hamish for organising the event it was a great evening in a great little pub with friendly bar staff. I even got a free pint at the end of the night, Now that is a rare thing a free pint. It was good to see everyone and to meet new folk, Excellent singers/players. well done. I hope this venue continues into the New Year and that more folk attend. Finally it was good to see the night out with Leadfingers, Woodsie and Co who stayed and kept us company right through to closing time. Kind regards to all and I look forward to the next one, Pierre Le Chapeau. |
