Info req: Dave Kenningham

Subject: Dave Kenningham
From: Mugwump

Several years ago I visited a folk club in a pub in Lodon somewhere. There was this bloke called Dave Kenningham (or something similar) he sang a wide range of pop songs, in the traditional style - stuff like The Monkees & Cliff Richard transformed to sound as if they were traditional folk songs - his best number was a sort of sea shanty version of Eric Clapton's "Wonderful Tonight". Does anybody know if he is still about or wether he released any albums?

Well, there is a Dave Kenningham, active on the London folk scene. See here and here. A fair bet that it's the same one, I'd think.

Perhaps getting in touch with the venues where he's hosting stuff, would glean a contact number?

Thats the guy i saw the other week, couldn't forget him, if i remember rightly he also sang 'ride on'

he seems a nice kind of guy, may pop along to the Tudor Barn and catch a glims of him again, never know your luck. If you see him again invite him to the Anchor at Lewisham, would be nice to see him there.

Just got back from South Australia, just before Christmas. I'm pretty sure I saw this guy in a sleazy hotel lounge bar, only He did have a guitar a rather beaten up old Yamaha if I recall, he was pretty good, but looked like he hit the old snow pretty often, his nose was as shiny as his head. Please do not ask why i was in a sleazy hotel lounge bar in South Australia!!!

There is a very high probability that the infamous Dave Kenningham (or one of his look-a-likes) will be at the:

                               TUDOR BARN, Well Hall Pleasance, Eltham

                                                       on

                                  Wednesday 15th January (tomorrow)

Will all his hundreds of fans, please form an orderly queue at the door.

I thought that it would be a fitting thing to call the attention of that beautiful, cultured, talented lady, Ms Penelope Rutledge to our own Mr David Kenningham.

Currently her suitors include the well-born but caddish Mr Winston Wellington-Jones and Oakley a weak but well-meaning member of a group of performers (from Hull9 !) who advocate equestrian cruelty.

Surely such a union should be encouraged for the good of the nation.

It could be the real DK - he said that he was hoping to be on line by the weekend. The trouble is that I think that the mudcat name was originally set up by a wannabe DK (Charles Atlas et al) so I hope that he's handed the name over to it's rightful owner - in which case change your Password Dave.

If anyone really wants to come and hear me perform, I may be at:

The Tudor Barn, Eltham on Wednesday,
The Kentish Horse, Mark Beech on Thursday (Travelling Folk).

On the fourth Thursday of every month Linda (Essex Girl), myself and Ted Clark - collectively Barleycorn run a session of songs and music at "The Black Horse", Stanstead near Wrotham, Kent - come along and see how we manage to get a good mix of songs and tunes.

On Saturday 22nd February, Barleycorn and Friends with caller Alan Austen will be presenting a Charity Ceilidh at the East Peckham (Kent) Social Club. Tickets are a mere £5 and a buffet will be included - there will be a licensed bar. All profits will go towards the Peto Andreas institute who help children with neural difficulties. PM myself or Essex Girl for further details or tickets.

You have to bring your own seats to Knockholt - or sit on the ground. I think it was more of a case of bringing about 4 seats - and they all got nicked by other people.

Who was Dave Kenningham? - was he the geezer cooking piles of out of date sausages on the embers of the knockholt bonfire?

He didn't play or sing - My family travelled all the way down to Kent, from bonnie Inverness to hear the legend perform. We were bitterly diappointed.

Shame on you DK for building up our hopes and then stuffing yourself so full of sausages that you were unable to sing.

I found this thread again... thought you ought to know.... Dave turned up at The Seven Stars last Monday... without a guitar.... borrowed one... played eight songs all the way through with no errors.... and.... wait for it..... without crib sheets !

He does conceal them and reads them sideways

Mr Fish.... I know that tactic of his..... trust me..... what's the point of bringing crib sheets when you haven't brought your guitar?

Pete.... low attendance wasn't in it? Because of Bexley's great love of roadsurfacing Sidcup Hill in one swoop, only the 233 bus stopped in Foots Cray, and that took a circuotous route. Dave was the only one who. like Lord Franklin ever got through. There were about four players and two audience.

It wasn't Lord Franklin Girl Friday - it was was an Eskimo named Only! For 'tis said 'Only the Eskimo, in his skin canoe, was the only one who ever came through'.
Dave Kenningham on the other hand always comes through. Splendid chap who always manages to play 'Ride On' in the wrong key.

Did he do the skiffle version of "Leaving of Liverpool"? I first saw him do that perched on the back of a chair downstairs at the Tudor Barn - the first time Jacqui and I ever went there.
