This is so sad for the Whitby music scene, and for Ann and Paul.We know that a lot of the pubs are struggling, but to lose four of Whitby's fine drinking establishments is appalling. Jingle and I have had so many great evenings in the Filo, and hoped for many more when we finally got to Whitby for good.   This is going to be a bit later than we thought, unfortunately, as some of you may know, our place was flooded out before Christmas by a STUPID NEIGHBOURS burst pipes.(Lost everything including a Flatiron mandolin).
So where do The FILO sessions go to now? There never was anywhere as welcoming. Ann (and Chuck before her) were so generous with the food at half time, and the music was the best weekly/monthly sessions in Whitby. Golden Lion? Ship? It'll be a nice excuse for a few pub crawls!!
