26 Jan 07 - 07:49 AM (#1948522) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: muppitz We did hear of a Lambley folk club past, I suppose you could count it as a revival if you like! If anyone wants to reserve tickets for any nights please do so! We've also got George Papavgeris confirmed for June 4th. muppitz x |

26 Jan 07 - 08:43 AM (#1948571) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Scrump Is there another link? The one posted above doesn't seem to work. Or could someone kindly post the essential details in this thread - venue, day / time of meeting/sessions would do. |

26 Jan 07 - 08:46 AM (#1948574) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Rasener Blimey Muppitz,we didn't work that right. We have him at Faldingworth Live on May 4th, which I arranged when we were up at Moor & Coast last year. Smashing singer/songwriter though and well worth seeing. |

26 Jan 07 - 10:59 AM (#1948692) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: muppitz Scrump, I've taken the blurb from the site, try going to myspace.com and doing a search for Woodlark Folk Club, see if you can find us that way, in the meantime, have a read of below! The Woodlark Inn Church Street Lambley Nottingham NG4 4QB We will be holding guest nights on the FIRST Monday of every month, the format for the night will be two 20 minute floor spots, one before each guest set which will be approx 45 mins. If you would like to fill one of these 20 minute spots please get in touch in advance of the night. We kindly request that if you have not pre-arranged to do a spot on a guest night, to save on space, that you don't bring instruments with you. We will also be having a singers/session night every THIRD Monday of the month, please feel free to bring your voices and instruments! No advance booking required!

28 Jan 07 - 06:09 AM (#1950222) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: MoorleyMan Oh Mr Villan. Mea culpa. You're right - I'm utterly blind. And bats too... I think it was getting turned down for a support spot at your club that sent me blind (I've never seen eye to eye with you since). So I do hope Muppitz that your club welcomes blind bats (is new blood appreciated by Nottingham's resident vampires, I wonder? I'd rather not do another gig at Drac's Power Station) Remember, even Stevie Wonder had to start somewhere! |

28 Jan 07 - 10:47 AM (#1950372) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: muppitz Blind bats are welcome as long as they don't try to reduce our audience numbers with their bloodsucking! We have some support spots if you fancy putting your name down for one MoorleyMan! muppitz x |

28 Jan 07 - 12:35 PM (#1950461) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: breezy yeah but Stevie Wonder had talent All club organisers should heed the words of the immortal Del brimstone, and should you dont know 'em i'll pm you them on request Villan , please give muppz a reference, I appear to be seeing too much of nottimgham bus and railway station lately did you know, if you have to go from Notts to Brum , , National express does it in half the time it take by rail. |

28 Jan 07 - 01:22 PM (#1950510) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: MoorleyMan Breezy, we may agree to differ on some things, fine, but remember the Beatles were turned down by a major record company (Decca) before they got signed by Parlophone. And there have been many other similar instances. Let's brush aside the thread creep and wish Muppitz well with her new club. |

28 Jan 07 - 01:41 PM (#1950532) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: breezy O K , no need for emo MM But talent counts for a lot and some of us dont have it. Some of you can write, you are good at that, as for singing , well , best leave that to those who can. nothing kills off a club more than tuneless, unaccompanied individuals who thimk they they can do what they cant and noone had the honesty to tell em early on. Go on villy , I'll be forever in your debt, would muppz like waht I do? LOL |

28 Jan 07 - 06:03 PM (#1950745) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Big Al Whittle Best of luck with your new venture. Many of us have fond memories of the old Lambley Folk Club. I remember with particular pleasure seeing Roy Harris sing there about 30 years ago! I'm sure it will be a great success. |
|
28 Jan 07 - 11:33 PM (#1950936) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Rasener Breezy, I am sure Mupppitz would like what you do. You were very highly rated when you appeared at MRFC. Anyway Muppitz and Joules know what they are doing, and I can't think of any people better to make it a big success. They have a passion for music and a wealth of knowledge concerning performers and I am very sure they will succeed where others have failed. |

29 Jan 07 - 07:52 AM (#1951098) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: muppitz Thanks for the kind words Les! Breezy, I think the best thing for you to do would be to come down on a singers night, or get yourself on one of the floor spots and then we can judge for ourselves. muppitz x |
|
29 Jan 07 - 08:08 AM (#1951110) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Sooz Don't be daft - its a long way from St Albans for a floor spot! Book him for a guest night. |
|
29 Jan 07 - 10:21 AM (#1951214) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Rasener I agree with Sooz Muppitz - John gives 100% peformance - I booked JOhn with trepidation, as i hadn't seen him live, but in all honesty his music and choice of songs was excellent. |

29 Jan 07 - 10:39 AM (#1951229) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Capo da Monty Hi Muppitz How about booking "Derbyshire's Finest" JACK HUDSON? He's playing at Spondon Folk Club on Tues 13th Feb. Not that far from Lambley I think so you can see for youself how brilliant he is! If you do book him I might just travel the 250 miles from Dorset and do a floor spot for you. Anyway Good Luck with the venture. The Folk Club scene needs you! Regards CdM ps If you can't make it on 13th and want a contact number for Jack please PM me |

29 Jan 07 - 11:23 AM (#1951278) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: muppitz I didn't realise Breezy wasn't a local! I've been to Spondon on a couple of occasions, sung there too, I think I'm about due for a visit! I keep hearing good things about Jack, must investigate! muppitz x |

30 Jan 07 - 10:18 AM (#1952394) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Rasener If you look at the weather forecast you will often see Breezy is a local everywhere. |

30 Jan 07 - 03:09 PM (#1952761) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: muppitz Very droll! Latest News, George Papavgeris re-schelduled to April 2nd and Anthony John Clarke confirmed for August 6th! muppitz x |

31 Jan 07 - 08:32 AM (#1953433) Subject: RE: New Folk Club Nr Nottingham (UK) From: Strollin' Johnny Tina, I'll second the proposals for Breezy and Jack Hudson. Very different to one another but both exceptional. Catch Jack's set at Spondon if you can, you'll see what I mean. S:0) |
