Subject: RE: UK- Fleetwood Lunchtime Folk for Charity From: PennyBlack Date: 31 Oct 04 - 07:04 PM Well here we are at the end of the season and the last "official" Tuesday collection for ARC at The Steamer on the 2nd November. The grand total for the year so far? £3501.98 Extra thanks must go to the customers at The Shovels Pub, where we were playing last night with The Scuttlebugs, who put £70.00 into an impromptu collection between sets. Still more events to come, so it's looking good, thanks to everyone, staff, musicians, helpers and especially everyone who has made a donation. PB |

P.B. |

P.B. |

Subject: UK- Fleetwood Lunchtime Folk for Charity From: PennyBlack Date: 30 Jul 04 - 08:00 PM Greetings one and all, Last year we set about raising some money for ARC(arthritis Research Campaign) in conjunction with Gordon Giltrap's incentive "Make Music Live" With the help of locals, visitor and several Mudcatters we managed to raise £1760.00. The Tuesday lunchtime events held at The Steamer at Fleetwood were such good fun and so successful we've arranged to hold them again this year. The dates are as follows... Location:- The Steamer Hotel (Map link for the Steamer) 1-2 Queen's Terrace , Fleetwood, Lancashire, FY7 6BT . Tel: 01253 771756 Dates & Time: Every Tuesday 11.30am to 2.30pm (from May 25th 2004 till the end of the season) If you find yourself in the Fylde area of England on a Tuesday, why not pop along, it's a lovely venue, with good ale, and food and all in aid of a good cause. Any singers musicians who would like to "do a set" just let us know, you'll be more than welcome (and thanks to those - you know who you are - that played last year) Hopefully we'll see some of you throughout the year? For those of you who don't know Fleetwood (the home of The Fylde Folk Festival) it's just up the coast from that quiet seaside village of Blackpool. Penny Black, |
