Thread Name: Edinburgh/Glasgow singarounds, 4-8 June?
Subject: RE: Edinburgh/Glasgow singarounds, 4-8 June?
Prestoungrange Gothenburg, 227-229 High Street, Prestonpans - Live music in the bar on Saturday night, 6th June from 9pm -11pm, and Open Folk Music session with "The Barriegadgies" on Sunday 7th at 3pm.

That's the one I already mentioned - the Barriegadgies seems to be whoever plays with Alan Hunter at the time and "The Goth" is what everybody actually calls the pub. It's one of the very few microbrewery pubs in Scotland of the type found in the US; they've been brewing beer in Prestonpans since the 18th century.

Have you actually been to the Skylark Cafe session? I assumed that with Gill Bowman involved it would be exclusively MOR nu-country snigger-snogwriter music with a faint Scottish accent - Eddi Reader without the hand movements.
