08 Oct 09 - 02:54 AM (#2740979) Subject: Gainsborough Folk Festival From: Sooz The Tenth Gainsborough Folk Festival (16th - 17th October) is celebrating its survival by combining with the Gainsborough Beer Festival. Both events are centred on Gainsborough Old Hall - an absolutely amazing medieval manor house which is always worth a visit. Programme details can be found here. Hope to see lots of you next weekend! |

I'll be kipping at the Travelling Audience residence again, catching up on the gossip and sharing a bottle of the old nectar, singing a few songs and listening to Geoff on his guitar and Mo on her whistle now they have had another year practising. Has anyone had the privilege to hear them yet? Can't wait! |

But great to see and hear loads of old pals (no, not that sort of old: the nice sort of old), too. Lots of good music, good company and (not nearly enough) good beer. ~8^) |

19 Oct 09 - 04:23 PM (#2748201) Subject: RE: Gainsborough Folk Festival From: Pulseroom Once again what a fantastic festival, so many friendly people, I loved it, to be honest if it hadn't been Gainsborough I wouldn't have gone looking at the line up, but, how wrong I would have been to miss a line up like that, it was brilliant, just goes to show. So! Very well done to everyone you all deserve a medal. Special thanks to Travelling Audience for once again sharing their home. Ian (Hopefully see you Friday). |
