From: GUEST My wife and I are going to be in the Sheffield area around the 5th/6th (sat/sun) of October and were wondering about any sessions that might be going on . We play fiddle and box to a reasonable standard and are usually fairly well behaved! |

10 Sep 13 - 04:29 AM (#3557727) Subject: RE: Sheffield Sessions? From: GUEST Many thanks for the responses. We'll hopefully get along to the Kelham Island Tavern as at the very least my wife (used to live in Sheffield} says the beer is excellent. |

16 Apr 16 - 06:35 PM (#3785659) Subject: RE: Sheffield Sessions? From: Phil Edwards A singer I met this afternoon (at Tod FF) was enthusing about a Saturday afternoon song session at Fagan's in Sheffield. I've googled like mad, but can't find any details of this on the Interweb - Fagan's seems to have sessions of one sort or another five nights a week, but no reference to anything on a Saturday afternoon. Can anyone supply more details? Or have I broken the first rule of Fagan's Saturday afternoon session? |

17 Apr 16 - 07:41 AM (#3785711) Subject: RE: Sheffield Sessions? From: GUEST,Jemma Fagan's hosts a lot of sessions (every night except Thurs and Sunday). I've not heard of one on a Sat afternoon - but that's not to say there isn't. Potential contacts: Fagan's on twitter: @faganspub The Monday night session at Fagan's has a Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fagans-Monday-Session/495013500536357 |

18 Apr 16 - 03:48 PM (#3785899) Subject: RE: Sheffield Sessions? From: GUEST,Jemma So, The Fates on twitter (@fates_uk) say that it is "every 2nd Saturday, 2pm to 6pm. there's one this Sat. Mostly songs and some tunes" Jemma |

18 Apr 16 - 07:17 PM (#3785923) Subject: RE: Sheffield Sessions? From: FreddyHeadey So, FatesUK are the ones who know. Here's a link to their Twitter conversation https://mobile.twitter.com/fates_uk/status/722142081335037954 I'm guessing that as "this Saturday" =23rd April, the "every 2nd Saturday" might be interpreted as "alternating". Daresay some mudcatter will clarify if they plan to go. |

19 Apr 16 - 03:24 AM (#3785960) Subject: RE: Sheffield Sessions? From: GUEST,padgett I did ask Shaun Hutch on fb who gave the thumbs up but failed to clarify frequency I would certainly agree that this Saturday pm will be the Fagan's session in Sheffield Fagan's has music sessions all week at night with different accents and "runners" of said sessions ~ Irish theme but English too Ray |

20 Apr 16 - 06:05 AM (#3786238) Subject: RE: Sheffield Sessions? From: Phil Edwards Thanks all. Evening sessions in Sheffield are a bit difficult, but a weekend afternoon could be doable - just as long as I didn't end up stuck on a rail replacement bus, as I was last weekend coming back from Todmorden. |
