They're playing a good set, but watch out for their audiences . . . there's some strange types about!

Thanks Lizzie, much apreciated!

and thanks too Greg, we heard whispers of a folk history at the Jericho, glad they're true!

All the best,

Kate.

The Jericho has got a distinguished folk history, Ibelieve. Now, first of all I need to add the usual qualifications about remembering things that happened in the 60's. having said that, my recollection of the Oxford Univerity's Heritage Society(folk club), and its peregrinations round pubs, is that when we moved from Gloucester Green to Jericho(area) there was a brief period at the Jericho(pub), as well as the longer time at the Bakers. Possibly the Jericho(pub) time was in the middle of the Bakers era...perhaps the Bakers function room closed for refurbisment or something?
    Trouble is I was drinking enough beer in those days to make it remarkably difficult to remember which pub I was in.

"Jericho Tavern is legendary amongst Oxford's music scene, having seen the early days of Supergrass and Radiohead."

Funny sort of folk club, if you ask me.

Do not confuse with the Oxford Folk Club at the Port Mahon.

Ok Traditionalist, fiddle bows at dawn is it? Put your comments behind an identifiable name and I might be prepared to listen....otherwise it is just sour grapes.......drink vinegar if it makes you happy.

Times must be tough now the festival season is over, reduced to singing in folk clubs already; whatever next?
