Much as I dislike self-promotion of any kind (shurely shome mishtake - Ed.), the exciting new young* folk duo, Rough 'n' Ready, are not, as yet, booked to play at the Man of Kent (watch this space), but we are playing at Yalding Farmers' Market at 10 a.m. on 21st April, the Good intent at 9 p.m. on St. George's Day and I believe we are doing a set during the singaround session at the Good Intent on the Sunday during Sweeps (at about three o'clock).

Now if I were to give you full details of Jumbo Gumbo playing at the King's Head and the Gordon Hotel on the Saturday during Sweeps, that really would be self-promotion, so I shan't!

You'll certainly see me at your session at the Good Intent, John, as soon as we've finished at the King's Head. As I've mentioned many times before, your session is one of the highlights of the festival.

* Well, we are young compared to Rochester Bridge!
