Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Richard Bridge Date: 27 Apr 10 - 04:19 PM Yes. It's much too sweet and sticky, quite sickly, but the Red Stripe Crucial Brew is OK. Are you feeling ill Mark (I DO HOPE SO)? Surely you would usually anathemise the immigrant status of Red Stripe. |

Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Richard Bridge Date: 27 Apr 10 - 03:46 AM Wevva (saith metcheck) not warm and not dry all weekend. |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Pierre Le Chapeau Date: 26 Apr 10 - 09:23 PM Thanks Richard same aopplies when you hang a man or women I guess? |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Richard Bridge Date: 26 Apr 10 - 06:20 PM Yes, I hang the 12 strings too. I believe that that helps to keep the neck straight. |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Pierre Le Chapeau Date: 26 Apr 10 - 10:31 AM Yes I have seen your house and very nice its is too but my humble hovel is postage stamp in size. if I did not throw away I would be camped in the garden? I have become a minimalist in all things apart from habit and beer ,clearly Richard do you hang your 12 strings guitars from the wall has you do with your guitars or do you keep the 12 strings on a stand. I have both guitar clamps on the wall and stands but I am not sure in regards to hanging a 12 string on a clamp re tension on neck etc |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Richard Bridge Date: 26 Apr 10 - 09:39 AM Moral: never throw anything away (you have seen my house haven't you Pierre?) |

BT will now give me credit on the perfectly good 2 phones I threw away. BLOODY PAR-LAVA |

Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Girl Friday Date: 17 Apr 10 - 05:31 PM Playing with a plectrum prevents prolonged plucking ! Try saying that after several pints! |

Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: GUEST,Pierre Le Chapeau Date: 14 Apr 10 - 10:58 PM Theres no need for that Melodeon boy........ Really? |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: melodeonboy Date: 14 Apr 10 - 06:13 PM "I know they come in different thicknesses, but otherwise, surely a plectrum is a plectrum innit?" I always thought that size did matter! I can never get the right rhythm with a floppy one! |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Girl Friday Date: 14 Apr 10 - 05:01 PM Agreed....what is so special about the damn thing? I find plectrums everywhere. I know they come in different thicknesses, but otherwise, surely a plectrum is a plectrum innit? |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Richard Bridge Date: 13 Apr 10 - 03:41 PM I think "Lackpick" has a nice ring, like "John Lackland" but it does also resonate of "lackwit". |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: The Barden of England Date: 13 Apr 10 - 03:13 PM I posted this on the other thread, but just in case Andrew the Plectrumless doesn't see it:- Andrew Sans Plectrum (or is that Andrew lack plectrum)? - - - Any old how the programme was posted earlier on the site - but to reiterate Friday 30/04/2010 from about 20:45 to close singaround/session with John Barden Saturday 01/05/2010 from 12:30 to 14:30 (but it WILL continue, bet your boots) and 20:45 to close as above with John Barden. Sunday 02/05/2010 from 12:30 to 14:30 singaround/session with Ruff & Reddy. 15:00 to 20:00 - floor spots and guests with Gastove and then 20:45 to close singaround/session with John Barden including a few songs from festival guest Mike Nicholson (a good mate and fabulous player and singer).

Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: GUEST,Andrew Date: 13 Apr 10 - 10:02 AM Is that right? According to the official programme John Barden is Hosting Sing - arounds in the Good Intent on Friday, Saturday & Sunday 8.45 - 11pm what happened to the afternoon singaround? Why has it been moved to later at night, many of us have to get public transport home, so will not now be able to attend! And why no Ruff 'n Reddy? And where's my plectrum? |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Richard Bridge Date: 13 Apr 10 - 04:54 AM Message from Doug Hudson: "I hope to have some Sweeps Festival programmes next week. This year the council have produced a flyer but have decided to distribute fewer programmes before the event itself. They want to have a large number of giveaways during the festival. It is available online in PDF form for anyone who wants to download in the meantime: "The Sweeps Festival programme has gone to print and will be back this Friday. 2,000 copies will be delivered to the VIC, with 1,000 coming here to me for mailing list (any left over from this will go to Corn Exchange). The balance of 13,000 will be delivered to the Corn Exchange for use at the festival itself. If anyone wants to download copies of the programme it is available here:. URL is http://www.whatsonmedway.co.uk/site/whats-on-search/rochester-sweeps-festival-p454521 There will also be a link from Medway Council's main site to this page."" |

Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: GUEST,hans christian andersen Date: 07 Apr 10 - 04:44 PM Ladies and Gentlemen and Andrew Pertolete Pekkerhoeven lays purple plectra for your playing pleasure. |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Richard Bridge Date: 07 Apr 10 - 03:22 PM But when Andrew's is retrieved from where it will be put if various people re-unite him and it, will it SMELL of chicken? This is now plucking ridiculous on two fronts. Fronts. |
Subject: RE: Sweeps Festival 2010 - Rochester, Kent From: Girl Friday Date: 07 Apr 10 - 02:12 PM I couldn't speak for every leopard, but we don't generally eat chicken. I believe that chickens and leopards live in totally different habitats. We spotty ones know however that carrots were originally purple. (See other thread). Plectrums come in many colours, but do not taste of chicken. |
