06 Jan 10 - 06:49 AM (#2804732) Subject: 2 Sussex folk clubs cancelled this week From: Vic Smith Woke up to heavy snow in Lewes and it is still snowing heavily and even the main roads through the town are closed (11am Wednesday) so we have made the decision to cancel tomorrow night's meeting of the Royal Oak club with Rosie Davis, Bob Winquist & Joe Locker. We will be offering them a replacement booking - probably in April - when they have had a chance to select a date. As I sat down to post this message, I saw an email from Chris Davis from the Wednesday night Arundel folk club. it say:- Hi everyone, Just a quick message in haste to all of you on the Willows' e-mail newsletter list to let you know that, due to the severe weather warnings and treacherous conditions, we've taken the decision to CANCEL tonight's Willows gig with Pied Merlin! :( We're absolutely gutted about this, as have never cancelled a Willows evening before, even when my Dad had a heart attack on a Wednesday afternoon!! But, given the conditions, we don't feel we have any choice. :( Although I haven't spoken to them in concrete terms, we are hoping to reschedule Pied Merlin's gig to later in the year, and will of course let all of you guys know if and when we're able to do this. :) Apologies for any disappointment caused, but hopefully you all understand, and I just hope that the weather will have cleared in time for next Wednesday! Take care, and best wishes, Chris Davis The Willows Folk Club Arundel, West Sussex Please pass this message on to anyone that you think is liable to want to go to either club this week |

The Brighton Folk & Blues Club at the Open House has been forced to cancel tomorrow's appearance by Phil Beer Email circular from the organisers of the Seaford folk club warn that tomorrow's meeting may have to be cancelled but they are delaying the decision. By me Thu Jan 07, 2010 11:16 pm The latest weather victim in Sussex - Gary's Live Music Club Coolham Village Hall, Billingshurst Road, West Sussex. RH13 8QN Saturday 9th January 2010 - Mike Hatchard in concert cancelled. (Thank goodness, I managed to get to the Nelson in Brighton on Monday night before the snow came or I would be suffering from Live Music Depravation Syndrome by now!) By Bryan Creer Fri Jan 08, 2010 12:00 pm And another one. Sadly we've decided to cancel the Lewes Saturday Folk Club with Hilary Ward tomorrow (9th). We'll find another date for Hils as soon as we can. |

We will try and schedule Liz Simcock for another day. Lewes on Saturday is also cancelled but Charlwood on Monday is likely to go ahead for those that can get there. Gary Holder's club has also cancelled the Mike Hatchard concert on Saturday. |
