Subject: Sessions in Manchester From: DrugCrazed Date: 27 May 11 - 08:32 AM Those who know I'm a student in the wonderful Sheffield might know I'm originally from sunny *cough* Manchester and will be returning home in a few weeks. Sheffield is the land of 17 sessions a night which I can find easy enough. Manchester I have no idea about. Any suggestions? Singarounds or playing, not bothered about either. |

Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Les in Chorlton Date: 28 May 11 - 06:02 AM Dear Mr/Ms DrugCrazed, you will be most welcome at The Beech, Beech road, Chorlton M21 9EG. 1st & 3rd Wednesdays - songs and a few tunes mostly but not exclusively traditional. 2nd & 4th Wednesdays is our Tunes Session. We have a tune book with 82 tunes for those who can can play the dots. We play steady, mostly English tunes with a light heart and have much fun. We have a Ceilidh Band, The Beech Band, of between 20 and 40 and play acoustically at various places. Cheers L in C# PM me and I will send you the tune book in PDFs & ABC Explorer |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 28 May 11 - 07:00 AM T'is Mr DrugCrazed, or "That idiot" as my friends call me ;-) I've already sent you a pm, and I'll try and get down there. Since I don't drive it might be difficult, but I live up in Eccles so it ain't that far from me. |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Les in Chorlton Date: 28 May 11 - 07:51 AM When they open the tram route to Chorlton It should be easier to get from Eccles. We do have people who travel from Eccles in cars L in C# |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Dave the Gnome Date: 28 May 11 - 10:02 AM White Lion - Swinton, Mondays. Depending where in Eccles you are it could be walkable. We used to walk over Eccles Fields to the Duke of York in our younger days. Or bus there and lift/cab back? Mainly Singers Nights with a periodic guest - Usualy around once a month. Cheers DtG |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Les in Chorlton Date: 28 May 11 - 10:03 AM When I was a child we used to walk barefoot from Ellesmere Port to Eccles to buy ................. L in C# |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 28 May 11 - 11:41 AM White Lion, that the one near the hospital? That's def walkable. |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Salford (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 28 May 11 - 11:42 AM Also, probably makes more sense for this thread to be Sessions in Salford tbh... |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Dave the Gnome Date: 28 May 11 - 01:56 PM Nah - that one is in Salford. Used to be owned by Beverly Callard of Coronation Street oddly enough... About 2 miles further on I'm afraid - Corner or Worsley Road and Chorley Road, Swinton. Just up from the arrow here. Cheers DtG |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Dave the Gnome Date: 28 May 11 - 04:55 PM I just realised - rewind a bit - I think the one near the hospital (Hope Hospital that is) is actualy the White Horse - apolgies if you didn't mean that one. Aside from that all else is the same! DtG |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 28 May 11 - 08:07 PM Ah, I think I've been past it (Swinton High is a place that I used to be at 3 nights a week). And I did mean the White Horse, knew it was the White something. |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 28 Jul 11 - 04:54 PM I'm planning on doing the White Lion session on Monday, is it a song or a tune session? |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Mo the caller Date: 28 Jul 11 - 05:04 PM 15 & 16 on Sessionlass' list might be a bit far to walk. |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Les in Chorlton Date: 29 Jul 11 - 05:36 AM White Lion Swinton L in C# |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 29 Jul 11 - 07:03 PM Hah, I just found that website. Massachusetts is just within walking distance...right? |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 02 Aug 11 - 06:27 PM Bah, damn you Mudcat for losing my post. White Lion session is in an over 25 pub, but I'll ask the landlord about it over the phone. I'm looking at Stockport sessions, because Chorley could be a real pain to get to. |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Les in Chorlton Date: 03 Aug 11 - 02:46 AM Songs and Tunes at The Beech L in C# |
Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Date: 04 Aug 11 - 02:03 PM Les, is the Chorlton sessions (WHY DO I KEEP SAYING CHORLEY!?) on during August? |
