03 Nov 02 - 01:04 PM (#817502) Subject: RE: Singaround: Barton, Beds.UK 4th November From: Bullfrog Jones The best way is to build up a resistance to it -- keep right on to the end of the woad. I'll get me coat. BJ |

Good luck at Roots & Bletchley. When you get a chance & feel like relaxing amongst friends come along to the Bull, we'll look forward to seeing you again! Ross: Yes, 'twas a good cosy night!! Glad to see you back & not too sunburnt. Am looking forward to tonight at the Blue Anchor in St Albans for the monthly singaround with Run of the Mill, good luck with the competition! Maybe Dereck will do his song about burning people at the stake, very inspiring at this time of year :-) Breezy: Am looking forward to hearing Mike Deavin again, must dust off his old CD & have a listen before Friday. See you tonight I'm sure!! I feel honour-bound to report that Punch the Horse's associates did not appear at Barton last night although they were eagerly anticipated. |

It was a real good night at Herga and Johnny Collins, Tim, George Pap=g and Kitty Vernon were in good voices then Dave Woods appeared and it went up aother gear,what a voice but Christine had emotions flowing with the Band p w Matilda and Harris and the mare, and kitty high-jacked all my songs and the chorus singing was of avery high standard, sorry to have missed Graeme Knights, so yes next monday, Its going to be pretty depresssing with everyone singing songs relevant to the day You will enjoy Mike Deavin on Friday at the comflirt hotel st Albans, then saturday at the Blue Anchor |

05 Nov 02 - 07:25 PM (#819463) Subject: RE: Singaround: Barton, Beds.UK 4th November From: breezy Hope you went to Stoney cos you werent at the other, where, 'the ghost' parks her bike outside the window ,immediately behind where a gallant effort is being made by a participant to play a whistle tune thus distracting all within by the act of disengaging flourescent yellow bands , the kind that alert motorists of 'cyclist on the road'style She was early tonight 10.25 p.m. So after being told I wasnt going to sing, I got chucked out and told I was banned,,,,,again See you in Stoney next month, I hate ghosts, especially those that play mallodeons -spelling intended- and count two tunes as one, then do a repeat on whistle, while all around wait for the interuption to pass so that they may continue enjoying themselves. I suppose after Herga it was a bit of a let down, well down right awfull really, only comparing to a singers night at that club Vin mentions. Barton is streets ahead of them both. done |

05 Nov 02 - 09:16 PM (#819529) Subject: RE: Singaround: Barton, Beds.UK 4th November From: Herga Kitty Hey Hil It would be nice to see/hear you at Herga on Monday. Armistice Day songs are not compulsory (though it's possible Graeme Knights might sing 13 Florins on the Bar). Breezy - when did Ian Woods become Dave? Kitty |

06 Nov 02 - 04:01 AM (#819670) Subject: RE: Singaround: Barton, Beds.UK 4th November From: My guru always said Breezy: What, banned again???? What are you like? Isn't everyone used to you yet? Didn't get to Stony, couldn't make up my mind & decided to hibernate instead.... caught in the trap :-( Kitty: Definitely trying for Herga - am looking forward to hearing those Armistice songs but haven't any to contribute being a mere babe in arms. Will post fresh Barton thread nearer the time.... May you always have music *G* |

06 Nov 02 - 03:21 PM (#820189) Subject: RE: Singaround: Barton, Beds.UK 4th November From: Herga Kitty Breezy If you're asking about CDs I've recorded, as opposed to the other ones I own, "Dark the Day" - Mick Pearce and Kitty Vernon - is available on the door at Herga, or from me, or from Dragon Records (probably from the bargain box) or from anyone who stocks the Wildgoose Studio catalogue.

Such a 'right' song to sing at that stagein the evening Thanks 'Shanty Dave'you got us all singing Well done , tonight its the Blue Anchor St Albans with Brad Bradstock and Big Sam doing guest spots |

09 Nov 02 - 08:31 AM (#822155) Subject: RE: Singaround: Barton, Beds.UK 4th November From: My guru always said Well Breezy, guess I'd better stay sitting down to sing - it helps me to get the words right & stops me from falling over. Isn't Sue F just wonderful???? Hope we get to try some other songs out together. Looking forward to Blue Anchor tonight - Piers & Pam will come along too I hope. Hope George PapaG will be there for a spot. Guess he'll be at Herga on Monday if not.... |

09 Nov 02 - 08:45 AM (#822165) Subject: RE: Singaround: Barton, Beds.UK 4th November From: treewind Thanks, yes not quite so far and it feels like home territory with all the folks we know there. Given that singer/songwriter/guitarist types aren't really my bag, I must say I was quite impressed with Mike: well written songs, a good voice and excellent guitar playing. I hope he wasn't upset by our early departure but you all know we had a fair old way to go. See you all again sooner or later Anahata |
