Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: GUEST,smallpiper at work Date: 04 Dec 01 - 05:58 AM Hi Guys Kate and I are definately on for thursday. My computer blew up on Friday so I've had to come into work to get this message to you. We fly tomorrow arriving in NYC at about 1.30. We're staying at the Hudson on West 57th Street if you want to contact us John O'Boyle and Kate Rutter. See you all on Thursday. God we're so excited! John |

Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: GUEST,Souter Date: 05 Dec 01 - 10:59 PM On the off chance you're in Staten Island (yeah, right) Take the s78 bus to vanduzer, go to the Muddy Cup. They've got music every night, and good hot chocolate. |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: GUEST,smallpiper in NYC Date: 06 Dec 01 - 05:42 PM What a brilliant City this is I recommend that everyone visits it! Looking forward to meeting people tonight. John |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: bernil Date: 06 Dec 01 - 06:31 PM Nice to hear that you got there unhurt, John (it seems...) and I hope that meeting the Mudcatters has been nice. I hope you can relax from your work - you really need that! (sorry about the computer...) xxx Berit |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: InOBU Date: 07 Dec 01 - 08:18 AM John got here unhurt, and we had a GREAT dinner last night, but, I will let him describe the evening as the guest, since we loud New Yorkers did SO much of the talking! Lovely fellow. It is funny that Mudcatters always seem like family when we meet. Cheers Larry |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: Mrrzy Date: 07 Dec 01 - 12:11 PM Well? Details! We want details! |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: GUEST,smallpiper back at work Date: 12 Dec 01 - 09:31 AM My computer is still dead. So two stolen minutes at work. We had a great dinner Larry,Genie, Sinsul and Steve turned out for the dinner which was great and yes it was just like being at a family gathering. What loverley people. Larry and Steve ended up doing a few tunes on the street afterwards in the middle of Hells Kitchen - Fabulous. More when I get my computer back. We love New York and next time I'm definately bringing my pipes. Keep in touch guys. John |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: SINSULL Date: 12 Dec 01 - 01:11 PM Great dinner - great food and wonderful company. Kate and John amazed us with their whirlwind tour of NYC - nobody comes from Europe for a long weekend! The evening serenade on a street corner topped it off. Finally got to meet Steve Suffet who turned out to be the brother of a friend I have known for years - small world. Now for the bad news - the next day I gave in and went to a doctor about my perennial cold. It is strep - hope I haven't infected anyone. Just what a group of singers need. Sorry. |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: GUEST,Smallpiper still at work Date: 13 Dec 01 - 11:33 AM Sinsull we're still both fine Kate's still got a bit of a cough and a long weekend in New York is not enough next time we'll take a few weeks. Hope you're feeling better soon. John |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: Suffet Date: 13 Dec 01 - 10:02 PM Sinsull, I'm feeling OK. But thanks for the warning. Et tu, InOBU? Get yourself better, and perhaps I'll see you at the Peoples' Voice on January 5th. That's still a ways off. Meanwhile, Brother Fred says hello. John and Kate, good meeting you. Maybe me 'n' the missus will say howdy if we make it to the UK this coming summer. --- Steve |
Subject: RE: BS: Visiting NYC From: InOBU Date: 14 Dec 01 - 08:52 AM Yup... the dinner was absoultly magic. Genie and I were saying how often folks we meet from mudcat or just "our kind of folks" in the best way. Steve and I had a good talk about the real need to create new folk venues in New York, John and Kate were wonderful and increased our limited knowlege of Hull, which seems to have a much more organised folk sceene than NYC... and John and I found we have a few hobbies in common, lots more likely but the evening went far to quickly. With eight million New Yorkers though, we have to do better about creating a folk scene that is welcoming and can pay the bills. So, perhaps Mudcat and Mudcat visits are a good organising start. Season's best John and Kate, and Mary and Dan and Steve and all... Larry (Genie says HI!) |
