Subject: RE: Folk Dickens EVERY Thur (NWKent, UK) From: Richard Bridge Date: 21 Aug 07 - 07:03 AM If all runs to plan this Thursday we will have a special treat from a man I hope we will be able to get back later for a full guest evening, possibly the most authoritative living English delta-style blues player, Kris Dollimore. http://www.krisdollimore.com Kris's previous bands include the Godfathers, Adam and the Ants, the Damned, and Del Amitri - all focal bands of their times. He is and has been a very sought after session player too. |

Subject: RE: Folk Dickens EVERY Thur (NWKent, UK) From: Richard Bridge Date: 20 Aug 07 - 09:56 PM Dickens World itself has been in the press quite a lot for various reasons.... It also has a website http://www.dickensworld.co.uk/ and a google for "Dickens World" will find a large bundle of information, some pro, some anti. The folking goes on in Porters bar accessed via stairs between the actual Dickens World entrance and Nandos. Maritime Way, Chatham, Kent. |

If you are coming from the Dartford side down the A2, just follow the signs at the Strood junction, go through the Medway Tunnel, take the slip at the tunnels end and turn right, then first right again.

Subject: Folk Dickens EVERY Thur (NWKent, UK) From: Richard Bridge Date: 17 Aug 07 - 05:49 AM OK, we were merely triumvirate last night, the Barden of England, Growler, and me, but we had a good time and the acoustics are great. We will now organise a roster of hosts to run this EVERY Thursday. So far it is song/session format, turns to play, everyone so minded joins in. If it works we will be aiming to have the occasional "name" or "big name" in the future - watch this space. The entry door is marked "Porters Bar" (or something like that) but the bar is actually inside Dickens World and looks quite Dickensian London underworld. Singers and players get beer at staff prices. Again, if it works, we will be looking at getting maybe a small barrel under gravity or something to stand on the bar, but at present the bottled Spitfire is drinkable and consistent. Next night will be Thur 24 Aug. NOTE _ UNUSUAL FEATURE We will be aiming to start the singing 7 or 7.15 pm to try to catch the passing trade from punters who have been in Dickens World and are relaxing with food/drink in the bar afterwards. There will accordingly likely be a break mid-evening to rest throats, and then noise will resume until about 11-ish. |
