Thanks for announcing it so quickly, Dave.

I have contact details for refunding all the workshop places in full, but if you bought an evening ticket and paid cash for it please PM me your postal address, ticket number and details of who to make the refund cheque payable to. Fortunately I can trace most of these anyway.

Instead we are running a singaround on Saturday night with the suggestion that people might like to sing any Keith Marsden songs they know. Admission will be free with a hat collection.

We have two further vocal harmony workshops this year: one with Jon Boden on Saturday 1nd. June and one with Craig Morgan Robson on Saturday 10th. November.

All the best,

Valmai

Dave, that sort of makes me feel better about missing it, but I hope you can arrange an alternative date.

As a fellow resident at the Lewes Arms Club (and perhaps leaping in before Valmai has a chance to) it is with regret that we have to announce that Cockersdale have had to cancel because of the Illness of one of their members.

Please contact the club using your usual contact details regarding refunds.

COCKERSDALE: VOCAL HARMONY WORKSHOP

Places £25

Saturday 17th. February 2007

10.45 a.m.- 4.45 p.m.

The Lewes Arms

Cockersdale (www.cockersdale.com) was originally formed in 1983 in part, at least, to bring the songs of founder member Keith Marsden to a wider audience. The current line-up of Val Marsden, Graham Pirt & John O' Hagan have been together since Keith's death 16 years ago. They have appeared at clubs & festivals all over the country & are undoubtedly one of the most popular groups on the circuit.

            They have run workshops on many occasions & their easy & humorous approach to the subject matter has proved both instructive & helpful to all. This one will include voice techniques & exercises useful for both beginners & experienced singers & a masterclass session.



In the evening COCKERSDALE

perform at the Lewes Arms Folk Club

(admission £6; advance tickets available from address at the end of this form)
