Hi Hawker. Funnily enough I was doing a funeral in Mac yesterday and bumped into a musician mate who told me that the session at the Castle (on Fridays I think) had ended. If your looking for a friendly session not too far from Mac, we have one at the "Peveril of the Peak" Great Bridgwater St (behind the Bridgwater Hall) central Manchester on Tuesdays. The mix of stuff is eclectic (English, Scottish, Irish, and some times Greek and Klesma. We start pretty early so if you want a seat get there at 8:30pm at the latest. All the best PP.
