Thanks GeorgeH, hadn't put 2 and 2 together to work out that the Black Swan IS the venue!.

I'll try to get there for the Saturday evening - unfortunately "real life" will invade the Sunday and prevent me staying over. Shame.

ah "free and easy session" probably refers to a format which is not unsimiliar to the tap and spile on a friday night, with musos and singers sharing a session

will try to make it agan this year-David Swann joined the Hissyfit gig in Robin Hoods Bay on Friday and we backed him on a couple of his songs-great great songwriter-the last laugh was had by us as we drove passed him as he walked up the 75% incline-nearly killed him!!! Looking forward to listening to some great local acts.
