BWM - There look to be a few locals booked for the Open Mic in Bishops Greave theatre on Monday 5th, as well as plenty in the Dog and Bone session on Sunday 4th. Line up for the Rising Stars event in the Dog and Bone on Sat 3rd yet to be confirmed - be interesting to see who's there.

Just as an aside, Miranda Sykes is Lincolnshire born I believe?

Cheers,

Pete.

"Just as an aside, Miranda Sykes is Lincolnshire born I believe?"

Not sure Miranda was born in Lincs Pete, her family are Yorkie immigrants I believe, but they have lived here a long time. However, even the inclusion of the lovely and hugely-talented Miranda, Lincs-born or not, hardly qualifies SoH as 'local' IMHO! :-)

And are artists really 'booked' for an Open-Mic or sessions? I thought the point of an 'Open-Mic' is that it's.........well, open - i.e. anyone who wants to 'ave a go can turn up and get on? Or that sessions are just random collections of like-minded players turning up to play together?

So, looking at the publicity Villan's provided links to, no sign of any local acts booked then? I can't look at the Facebook site, our IT-Control-Freak-Eejit-Nerds at work have blocked Facebook (although, unsurprisingly perhaps, they allow themselves access to it). Mmmmmm!!

Dog and Bone say
Saturday 3rd October 7.30pm As part of Lincolns 'Six days of Folk' we will be hosting an event which will showcase some of the best new folk bands from around Great Britain. Watch this space for more details

Thats very interesting. Who could it be?

I am glad Churchfitters who are appearing at Faldingworth Live on the same night have only 10 tickets left.

Blowzabella don't do many dancing gigs so it will be a treat to see them. The tickets for the kids were very reasonable so its a good opportunity for a bit of a family night out.
Lau were brilliant at Shrewsbury festival well worth a listen if any of the Lincoln crowd haven't seen them.

No mention of singarounds on the D&B website as far as I can see...
any clues?

Dog and bone is more of an informal session than a singaround... and is usually great fun.

It is usually on from 3pm onwards on the first Sunday of the month.

Who is in Gone to the dogs now then. Dáithí, Ian and ????

Here is the link you need Moorley Man http://www.lincolndrillhall.com/~sixdaysoffolk/

As such there just happens to be different events going on this weekend booked by different people and the Drill Hall have encompassed it on their website

Sundays event at the Dog & Bone is their normal monthly session. I think it isn't what you would be looking for Moorley Man as it not quite like the singaround at say Gainsborough Folk Club. Never the less if you are there you might as well have a look in. Great little pub.

I am only too glad I sold out for my event on Saturday for the Churchfitters at Faldingworth Live, otehrwise I could have lost an arm and a leg.

Well, we had our Lincolnshire Say celebration in Corringham Village Hall last night. An absolutely packed house was royally entertained to a Magical Mystery Tour of Lincolnshire in Song delivered by John Conolly and Better Late than Naked (Mr BWM's band). I hope that the audiences up the road in the city had half as good a night!

Hi Villan - Gone to the Dogs now comprises Ian, me and Andrew the fiddler (he makes and repairs them as well).
You can see - and eventually hear!! - some stuff at http://www.myspace.com/alachien.

We played the Lincoln Drill Hall in support of the Band From County Hell on Oct 10th, and the Jolly Brewer (solo gig) last weekend too.

So far, so good..!

We'll be at the Dog and Bone playing a couple of sets on Thursday 29th October, from about 8pm, if anyone can make it, twould be good to see them! Free entry, real ale and a cracking little pub!
Best wishes Dáithí
