From: Morticia There is Bracknell Arts Centre on Wednesdays,Reading,at Pipers island but I'm afraid I can't remember which night although I think it's Sunday ( King Brilliant would know) and several things around here ( where I am, I mean), which would be about a 40 min drive, I guess.PM me if you want more details. |

13 Sep 02 - 03:29 PM (#783287) Subject: RE: Basingstoke - any clubs in area? From: Herga Kitty Morty - how long is it since you went to Readifolk? They moved from Piper's Island at least a couple of years ago, and even managed to move again between booking me and Les Sullivan at the beginning of this year and us appearing there in July. I think they are currently at the Clifton Arms in Gosbrook Road, Caversham - definitely Sundays though, so probably no good for Pavane. Is the monthly supper club (first Thursday) at the White Lion in Wherwell still going? kitty |

18 Sep 02 - 08:37 AM (#786588) Subject: RE: Basingstoke - any clubs in area? From: treewind The White Lion, Wherwell, generally 1st and 3rd Thursday of the month I think, but definitely this week (18th) - a singaroud, I'll be there, unusually. So will Keith Kendrick and others involved in KK's later recording project. (down the A303 towards Andover and turn left...) Anahata |

18 Sep 02 - 03:28 PM (#786902) Subject: RE: Basingstoke - any clubs in area? From: Mr Red The Wherewell singaround may be two monthly clubs in different pubs. If you can contact the band Random House Keith the base player used to run the White Lion one. I spoke to someone at Bromyard or B'north who ran the other one. |

18 Sep 02 - 03:39 PM (#786906) Subject: RE: Basingstoke - any clubs in area? From: Herga Kitty But the White Lion has had a Thursday club for years ... and anyway is Doug Bailey's local, so anyone recording at Wildgoose is likely to be found there after they've finished recording.... Kitty |

and Tramp up Snowdon ... last line: Go it, ancient B's The discussion threads point to a possible author, as below From Malcolm Douglas: It seems that W. Hope Jones was a master at Eton, and wrote the song, c.1921, for the college's Boy Scout troop. ("Gilwell Camp Fire Song Book" and comments on the web.)
