Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: Paco Rabanne Date: 27 Jan 06 - 08:28 AM Musically or physically? |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: LesB Date: 27 Jan 06 - 08:33 AM For a good night out at a folk club, Stanley. To see & hear a lovely young lady with a great voice, singing traditional songs, Kathryn Roberts or Lauren McCormick!! Cheers Les |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: George Papavgeris Date: 27 Jan 06 - 08:34 AM It's a moot point Breezy - you can't afford Kate Rusby anyway... But to play the game: For the same price, I'd choose Kate Rusby. For 2/3 of KR's price, I'd choose Stanley. |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: George Papavgeris Date: 27 Jan 06 - 08:37 AM Now to reverse the game: Say you're Kate Rusby. For the same terms (guarantee v percentage) would you choose Snorbans or Hitchin? |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: breezy Date: 27 Jan 06 - 08:51 AM Of course I can afford Kate Rusby, she just wont come for what I can afford. Anything Chesham can do.... In which case Stanley Accrington will be only half of K R's door admission The choice will be yours |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: George Papavgeris Date: 27 Jan 06 - 09:03 AM What is the choice - is Chesham running on Sundays now, or have you moved to Mondays? Do they have Kate Rusby on the night you have Stanley Accrington? Or is it all a longWindwarded way of saying you have booked Stanley because you would not pay what Kate was asking for? Confusion reigns... |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: breezy Date: 27 Jan 06 - 09:22 AM no yes no naturally |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: George Papavgeris Date: 27 Jan 06 - 09:26 AM I translate that as "No, Chesham doesn't run on Sundays", "Yes, Windward moves to Mondays", "No, KR is not on the same night as SA" and "Yes, this was by way of advertising Stanley's gig at Snorbans". Your competition on Mondays is Herga, not Chesham, though.... |

Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: treewind Date: 27 Jan 06 - 11:12 AM I think he's hoping for the free pint from Stanley. (Good luck!) Anahata |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: Dave the Gnome Date: 27 Jan 06 - 12:35 PM If you don't have the dosh there is no contest! We tried to book Kate for our festival but were told she only does 'big' (read expensive) venues now:-( Stan may not be as well known nationaly but he is funnier, writes better songs and wears better wooly jumpers:-) And you can, of course, regularly see him at local folk clubs for the price of a pint! Cheers DtG |

Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: Geoff the Duck Date: 27 Jan 06 - 08:07 PM If you want Anagrams - Stan will do them quicker than Kate. If you want to hear a record played on Steve Wright in the Afternoon it'll be Kate rather than Stan. Quack! GtD. |

Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: GUEST,r.padgett Date: 29 Jan 06 - 10:32 AM Stan falls into the category of a funny man who uses Folk as a vehicle in much the same way that Billy Connolly, Jasper Carrot, Richard Digance, Mike Elliot and Mike Harding did (although very different) If you have listened to Radio programms of the ilk of 'The Hudd Lines' then I think Stan should and could easily be writing such material His folk club work is current and topical in the main and he may or could be working any venue to my mind He is a genius, in much the same way that Les Barker is. Folk clubs appear to be their bread and butter ~ its time that they were both in the main stream and reaching wider audiences than folk clubs Kate Rusby has outgrown smaller Folk Club venues and appears to be making inroads into more generalist and lucrative areas of main stream yet still folk related work and good luck to her! Horses for courses perhaps? |
Subject: RE: Stan Accrington or Kate Rusby From: GUEST,Gronf Date: 29 Jan 06 - 10:39 AM Kate Rusby has got bigger tits than Stanley Accrington. |
