World's Room 17th May 2013-Important Event Update

Dear all,

In just the last two days we've learned the unfortunate news that both of our guests for this Friday's World's Room, Phyllis Martin and Mary Smith, have taken ill and will be unable to join us as planned. We wish them both a speedy recovery and look forward to welcoming them to the club at an alternative date in the near future.

In this exceptional circumstance, and with the difficulty in replacing both guests at such short notice, we've taken the difficult decision to cancel the event. We'd be grateful if you could help spread the word to anyone whom you know had been planning on coming along.

We'll return on Friday 14th June, when we welcome Davie Robertson and Ken Wilson to the club.

Best wishes,

The World's Room

What a shame!

Was really looking forward to this combination of guests (and hoping to bring through some students from Glasgow to hear how it's done).

I believe that they are now having a "singy" night with song from the floor instead.

Yes, I can confirm that we've decided to carry on with a night of songs from the floor instead. Apologies for the confusion caused by the thread title (I'll see if I can get it changed).

There'll be no entry fee, but probably a raffle!

As Sheena Wellington has kindly remarked:

"This club has some of the finest singers we've got in its normal audience! As Joe Aitken and I agreed when we were at The World's Room, we would have paid to hear the floor singers!"

Join us this Friday for some fine songs and good crack!

Just a wee bump for tomorrow's night of traditional songs at the Canons' Gait.

This is a great opportunity to take part in a real community of song, and to hear some of the finest singers that Scotland has to offer.

If you've never been to the club before: we love welcoming new visitors, so why not come down and share a song or two with us?

Entry is completely free tomorrow as well!

Hope to see you there .

Something completely different happened at that venue yesterday:

There are quite a few appropriate songs about fascist losers.

I wouldn't be surprised if the incident has generated a new song or two already...

Find out tonight at The World's Room!
