We're just back from Cleckheaton too... I love the Wickham... and it's one of the reasons I go to Clecky... there are usually at least three separate singarounds in there... maybe more... if one room is full... or miserable... or too noisy...or full of drunken morrismen...or not your style of music... well you just move on through til you find one that suits. Also there are other places for a singaround ..on Saturday evening we went along to The Marsh, two minutes down the road from the Wickham... a belting singaround, unofficial, ably led by McFat and I think discussed on the Cleckheaton thread last week.

The Commercial in usually used for musicians session... but we did pop in there for a short while on saturday afternoon and found a few musicians taking turns... with two guitarists singing when it was their turn... the instrumentalists left... leaving just the two guitarists... who carried on regardless of anyone else in the room, taking turns to sing. One of them said to the other 'it's just you & me then'.... we went back to the Wickham!!

All in all it was a brilliant festival... apart from the rain!!!
