Impromptu gig, set up at short notice. The Boat Band will be hosting a session at the Miner's Arms, Silecroft, Cumbria. Starting at 5, or maybe 6PM,to be family friendly. Goes on till nobody left standing. Any music welcome, we'll be doing English, cajun, whatever.
We chose the time 6PM to allow anyone time for a walk beforehand leading smoothly to the session in daylight: Black Combe can be conveniently climbed from the pub carpark, or the less adventurous can equally well walk on the beach (along to the King Billy in Kirksanton is a nice one for the thirsty).
   Taffy Thomas is also organising a story-telling festival in Grasmere on Friday and Saturday, which includes plenty of music as well. Sorry, cant do blue clickies, but a quick google will find it. That bloke from the Incredible String Band is going to be at the Grasmere do, but I cant remember his name at the moment. We none of us get any younger.
