The last before the festival season! (although there might be a deathiversary BBQ for Jacqui, Pete and Dave, after Sweeps).

Let's send the Nags off with a bang!

We are going to have to try extra hard since I already know that Cap'n'ella cannot come, nor the Barden of England, both having gigs, nor Abdul the Bul Bul since he will be elsewhere doing his impersonation of the Sheikh of Araby (don't mention the Crusades), and that I fear will deprive Gordon of his usual lift.

Can any reader able to give me email addresses (current) for Richard Matthewman or Marian Button or Mark Lawson or Bernard his cousin or Derek Moore, Brian (who used to sing with him in Debri) Keith Alexander Dave Leigh, Daz and Man, or any of that crew please do so?

Can anyone put the three line whip on the sausage-smuggler and/or Pat Debs and Sarah?

Oh, can anyone sing "Drink the Barrell Dry" - or "Bring us a barrel"?



Usual format - arrive at noon, drink barrel, go home at about 6 or 7.

Nags Head, Lower Stoke, Nr Rochester, Kent, ME3 9RD.

Good news for all you carnivores! Richard will be able to cook you up some former animals on 19th April. Unfortunately Helen and I have tickets to see Van Morrison performing Astral Weeks on that date.

Richard just a thought if the weather is glorius at Lower stoke on the 19th April could we all go outside in the beer garden for the session or would that be a par-larva in regards to 1) Seating and 2)getting to the bar.
I recall somewhere in the vaults of my confused mind that this was mentioned on a earlier thread.

How about a tent, VT- or some festivals do indoor camping.

Don't let anything get in the way of festivalling if you can at all help it!

I used to travel with my little tent on the train- someone will pick you up at main line stations if you don't have a car- just ask mudcatters!

And you can steward to save on festival costs too :0)

Hope to see you at some festivals over the summer!

Dont Fret VT.
After the April 19th sess at The Nags Head. There plenty going on that you can get to. And Iam sure RB if he can will arrange another sess later on in the summer.
It may not be the last one at the Nags yet? We will have to wait & see what RB can arrange and fit himself in to do it.(Jeans and a Sweater usually) Theres 2 Knockholts remember has well.

We had to get rid of our tent. My arthritis won't let me sleep on the ground and so exposed. Well not if I want to be able to move at all the next day.

Knockholts not in our calendar except maybe to visit Saturday daytime.

That's a shame VT. Knockholt is the highlight of my year and the best time is the night time, singing around the campfie! I had a lot of trouble with my own health/camping and bought a huge tent that I can walk into and stand up in, as well as a good raised campbed that does the trick! Still hope to see you both saturday afternoon - better than nor at all!

I have seen double thickness air beds that must be over a foot thick when inflated, maybe more, which ought to assist with insulation from the cold damp earth, and Kev the Klogs and Dilligaf's new tent permits KK to stretch his arms overhead. But then I know who has to blow up and erect these things, even if size does matter.

We had a walk in 2 room tent and a substantial air mattress as well as very good sleeping bags. I still suffered. I just can't physically cope with cold and damp these days.

We will hopefully have car and caravan sorted next year, but Chris will still be teaching the weekdays, so may leave me and caravan on Wednesday evening and return on the Friday for the weekend.

Hope you enjoyed the day and many thanks for taking most of your day for recording us on your Digi Cam - looking forward to seeing it!!! Plan on using bits of your shots on our web site if that is ok. Let us know how much we owe you, and I will settle up with the addition of the Martin CARTHY CD next time we meet.

The Bard - glad you liked the video I took of you with "Marks In The Grass" - not bad for a little Mobile Video is it :-)

Blatant Plaug - Bishop Gundulf's Morris will be at The King's Arms, Upnor, on St. George's Day (23rd April) plus their Beer Festival (25th April) - Beer Festival is 23rd to 26th April - and at Fort Amherst on 24th April.

Went to see the Coppers on Saturday night at Faversham - FANTASTIC!!!

I have been practicing Ride On all morning on the Tanglewood and its coming on o k .
Its a great song with easy chords ,Great Lyrics and I find me self racing through it. I have always enjoyed it when its been sung at The Nags sessions.
But I have been lazy in the past and never bothered to learn the song in full. Now I feel confident i can join in with everyone else , Keep up and above all sing the right lyrics.

My Polish friend Chrissy said" You strum the rhythm far to fast,you should slow it down a bit.
I said well thanks very much for that advice Christy Moore. But at the end of the day I am a strummer and the songs supposed to be about galloping Horses, "Use your imagination",

Romany man:.... Fees for filming....a good question.....Would they be counter acted by advertising fee's....Copyright fees......Travel expenses to shoot....Wear and tear on equipment....Insurance for Public Liability...Drinking expenses whilst shooting.

In addition you have the processing and editorial fees to add....

Thus your four and a half minute film is done with great love and pleasure...

Hi Richard

I clearly understand that over the years you must have got involved in many a debate about such things has hand made guitars and other issues, and respect that you may well be quite Browned off by the idea these days or thats the impression I got from your above thread?
Seen it and done it etc.

But due to the comment you a made on that thread Re measuring sound hole I was merely putting it to you there are photos that you might wish to see regarding the advice you gave in Regards to the handmade guitar Im making.
