Ho hum: that's what I feared about the fringe events. I'm playing in the marquee on Saturday at 6 o'clock (evening, thankfully!) and was hoping for some sort of singaround Friday evening but there's nowt listed. The most there seems to be is the marquee and some workshops; plus an open mic on Saturday and Sunday lunchtimes.

Buffers Bar has an open stage on Saturday lunchtime. Giovanni's, the Anglia Court Hotel and the Albion Inn all have something sporadically, so it might be worth trying for a "spontaneous" session or singaround at one of them. Any takers? Friday night? Otherwise I expect to dip into the marquee from time to time. (It's free entry and won't be just die-hard folkies, but there's some decent performers on the bill).

If anyone fancies the "trying for a "spontaneous" session or singaround" concept we could share mobile numbers...?
