27 May 11 - 08:32 AM (#3161240) Subject: Sessions in Manchester From: DrugCrazed Those who know I'm a student in the wonderful Sheffield might know I'm originally from sunny *cough* Manchester and will be returning home in a few weeks. Sheffield is the land of 17 sessions a night which I can find easy enough. Manchester I have no idea about. Any suggestions? Singarounds or playing, not bothered about either. |

Since I don't drive it might be difficult, but I live up in Eccles so it ain't that far from me. |

28 May 11 - 07:51 AM (#3161700) Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Les in Chorlton When they open the tram route to Chorlton It should be easier to get from Eccles. We do have people who travel from Eccles in cars L in C# |

28 May 11 - 10:02 AM (#3161727) Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Dave the Gnome White Lion - Swinton, Mondays. Depending where in Eccles you are it could be walkable. We used to walk over Eccles Fields to the Duke of York in our younger days. Or bus there and lift/cab back? Mainly Singers Nights with a periodic guest - Usualy around once a month. Cheers DtG |

28 May 11 - 11:42 AM (#3161752) Subject: RE: Sessions in Salford (UK) From: DrugCrazed Also, probably makes more sense for this thread to be Sessions in Salford tbh... |

28 May 11 - 01:56 PM (#3161813) Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Dave the Gnome Nah - that one is in Salford. Used to be owned by Beverly Callard of Coronation Street oddly enough... About 2 miles further on I'm afraid - Corner or Worsley Road and Chorley Road, Swinton. Just up from the arrow here. Cheers DtG |

28 May 11 - 04:55 PM (#3161861) Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: Dave the Gnome I just realised - rewind a bit - I think the one near the hospital (Hope Hospital that is) is actualy the White Horse - apolgies if you didn't mean that one. Aside from that all else is the same! DtG |

28 May 11 - 08:07 PM (#3161948) Subject: RE: Sessions in Manchester (UK) From: DrugCrazed Ah, I think I've been past it (Swinton High is a place that I used to be at 3 nights a week). And I did mean the White Horse, knew it was the White something. |

White Lion session is in an over 25 pub, but I'll ask the landlord about it over the phone. I'm looking at Stockport sessions, because Chorley could be a real pain to get to. |
