Thread Name: New Session starting in Bedfordshire UK
Subject: RE: New Session starting in Bedfordshire UK
I spent a lot of time in Bedford itself in the early 80's, Visited some people in Sandy occasionaly but that's another story. Anyone know if there is still a folk club right near the centre of Bedford. It was in walking distance of the hotel we always stayed at - The Swan I think. Now, I can remember the pub sign - It was either a Prince of Wales feathers or a Fleur de Lys - and the pub had the name of whatever it was! It was run by someone quite famous - Good guitarist with big hair. Could have been famous from some band like Magna Carta if I remember rightly.
Sorry to be vague but every time I see anything about Bedford I always try to remember that folk club. Too many grey cells have drowned in beer since though;-)
