Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: Dave Bryant Date: 10 Feb 04 - 12:28 PM Linda and I are going to the Euro-gathering (1-3 May) so I'll be away for the first Sunday - but got nothing planned in May otherwise. |

Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: GUEST, Hamish, no cookie Date: 10 Feb 04 - 10:44 AM Oops! That was me as GUEST, above! (Vested interest declared) |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: GUEST Date: 10 Feb 04 - 10:43 AM Chesham? Since you ask... ...good responsive and appreciative turn out for the very excellent Kathryn Roberts and Sean Lakeman last night. Some fine spots, too. And modesty forbids me from complimenting the MC. Here's an extract from an unsolicited e-mail from a mate: "Another good night last night, thanks." |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: Dave Bryant Date: 10 Feb 04 - 09:50 AM A Sunday night would be fine John - so please consider me for one of the 'Spotlight' sessions. I'll try and get to one of your Friday nights - at least I don't have work in the morning - which is the normal venue, St Stephens Churh Hall or The Duke of Marlborough ? Martin - although I was born in Bedford (because of wartime evacuation) Barton's a bit far for me to drive on a Monday night after work - but I hope it goes well. |

Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: Dave Bryant Date: 10 Feb 04 - 07:47 AM Breezy - which nights do your St Albans and district folk mafia events all run on ? I keep meaning to get over that way again sometime, but it's a bit of a rush on a week night. I first of all have to get back home (Mottingham) from Kingston and then drive via Blackwall and the M11. There's also the fact that Linda has a 14 year old son, and we therefore only tend to go any long distance when he's staying with his dad. It'll be quite a dash to get to "The Lion" at Eastwick tonight - and that's quite a lot nearer (it's not too far for you either). |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: breezy Date: 10 Feb 04 - 06:29 AM Talking of drags. Anyone been to Chesham lately? Get over here bryant and let see what you can do. not who. |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: Dave Bryant Date: 10 Feb 04 - 06:03 AM Well you could always drag Breezy around while you're about it :-) |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: GUEST,The Stage Manager Date: 09 Feb 04 - 12:58 PM Have I got this right guys? Are you, in a round about way, suggesting that Breezy dispenses with the singing and twanging and stands around trouserless with bananas up his nose? Great Concept! Sounds like a dead cert for the Turner Prize, though not quite the thing you would expect to encounter down "The Legion". Although on the other hand, we did have a drag act at one stage last night. SM |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: The Unicorn Man Date: 09 Feb 04 - 12:29 PM And the really sad thing is Breezy will not be there. |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: Ross Date: 09 Feb 04 - 10:44 AM That's an idea Maybe I could contrive a novelty act that dispenses of twanging and singing altogether |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: breezy Date: 09 Feb 04 - 08:21 AM yes, provisionally . Chris Flegg will M C and 'Spot' it, Josie on the door and raffle. be early or got the dosh done Dent is up to 2 Credits like you and the next programm is being finalised as I type. Trouserless with bananas up yer nose, is this partr of the act? |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: Ross Date: 09 Feb 04 - 08:16 AM Am I still on for 8.45pm this Sunday Can you fit me in |

Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: The Unicorn Man Date: 08 Feb 04 - 06:40 PM Oh Goody. I like that nice young man. |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: breezy Date: 08 Feb 04 - 02:18 PM I dont know either Lets try 20th feb then the 5th March Whats going to be happening at the Duke Of M? Why? Because the 'Wandering Windward' St Albans Folk-song club will be moving in. But tonight its the legion with your host - El G |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: The Unicorn Man Date: 08 Feb 04 - 01:53 PM I don't know but the 29th Feb this year is a Sunday.I know this because 28th Feb is the Saturday of the first Charity Mic Nights at Thr Bull in Barton Le Clay, Beds. Tam-Lin are playing their final gig ever, and Hilary might be coming and it's the night before her Spotlight at StAlbans,and there might just be enough time to fit in another floor spot if you behave. It sounds like a date of a Dent Event that got cancelled without me knowing until I got there last year. If that is any help. |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: breezy Date: 08 Feb 04 - 10:41 AM £3 first to Vanessa on the door George will open the show, then martin, 2 [12 mins] or 3 15 minutes max ,I'll bring the clock, then maybe me unless someone beats me to it, then a 1st half poem from Michael, then Steve.

Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: The Unicorn Man Date: 08 Feb 04 - 05:50 AM Yes, very worrying,but we will see. |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: Hamish Date: 08 Feb 04 - 04:52 AM "yor reputation of being an amusing entertaining Folk Singer" puts me in miind of Etic Morecambe saying "You have my word as a gentleman" |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: The Unicorn Man Date: 08 Feb 04 - 04:27 AM Okay See you at 8.12pm Cheers, but you must promise on yor reputation of being an amusing entertaining Folk Singer that you will let me go, with no fuss, or I will infect you deliberately, and I must beable to advertize The Bull in Barton le Clay Sing a Round for Monday night, because I think The Singing Ref has expressed an interest in it. |
Subject: RE: Sunday 'Spotlight' St Albans From: breezy Date: 08 Feb 04 - 03:31 AM Of course, its your choice, but Tom and Nigel, will be very entertaing and as an entrprnr you should be --as you are-- watching as many new perfomers as you can.
