Saw him in Yorkshire a few years back, a truly great 'Fromagiste' in my opinion. Dale's version of the Briar and the Roule has to be heard to be believed. Any chance he might do it Friday? SM |

01 Apr 05 - 04:05 AM (#1448691) Subject: RE: Stan Accrington St Albans From: Moses If you mean the bi-annual Maidenhead songwriting competition it was a well deserved win by Les Sullivan with "The Ringmasters Hat" (I think that's the title anyway). I have already joined the queue for the words. Les tells me he plans to include it on his next (2nd) cd. Our own, lovely, Mr Flegg came in a close 2nd with his song about the iron-age chalk "man" and Kaye Tillet (who had to wait until last to perform - how nerve-racking) was 3rd with a delightful song about a Red Kite (bird of prey, not kid's toy). It was a great evening with lots of very good songs performed to a high standard. It's just possible that one or two of them will be performed by their authors at Snorbens over the next few weeks. Watch this space!! |

01 Apr 05 - 07:28 PM (#1449602) Subject: RE: Stan Accrington St Albans From: breezy we were blown away by Stanley tonight If you aint ever seen him then do so he's been around for a 1/4 of a century He is a great original creative entertainer. Performs in so many different styles His shantey dedicated debased on Wayne Rooney, or was it shrek is a must for any shntey crew. for statessidecatters Rooney is a soccer player His delivery of the Battle of Moulden , in Danish dialect is a classic and as Flegg said he had us singing a load of bollocks when he performed Old Man River in Mandarin. And much much more and such a voice too and a shirt that looked like a T V colour test card Swinton on Monday, but they'll've had their inoculations. I know he drops in ere for a read from time to time Thanks Dale? Cheers Stanley look forward to another dose from all at Windward closed next Friday for holidays, easter holidays then moving on friday 15th April we move back to the Duke of Marlborough for the best from Canada, Dan Mckinnon |
