27 Feb 07 - 05:34 AM (#1980595) Subject: Moor & Coast Festival 2007 programme From: Rasener I won't be able to make it for the Friday night, due to running my own club. However, I was thinking of coming up to Whitby for the week on the Saturday. Befoer I book anything, can somebody please tell me if there is a Ceilidh and is it on the Saturday night and if so, where will it be held. Likewise, if the Ceilidh, is on the Saturday, wher will the concert be held. The reason I ask this, is that last year, the concert was held in a venue that was to small for all the people that wanted to get in. I had bought a season ticket and couldn't get in, but people who had bought a concert ticket were going in. There were quite a few of us pretty angry about this. So I do not want to hire a cottage for the week, buy a season ticket and face the same problem again. Lot of money when you can't get in. |

Gigs in the friendship club (well, that's where the pipes are playing on sat aft), but I don't know about the evening cos I'll be on my way to Wath by then. Muppitz - do you know? Not sure who these bag-squeezers'-offsprings are, but here's a clue... Tom Bliss - voice, guitar, mandocello, whistle, mandolin, dulcimer, concertina Tom Napper - voice, mandolin, tenor banjo, octave mandolin, tenor guitar Tony Taffinder - voice, guitar, bodhran, whistle, bouzouki, bass Chris Parkinson - voice, accordion, melodeon, harmonica, percussion The Pipers Sons |

Same as last year. The friendship is not big enough for a Saturday night concert. So if thats the case, I wont go at all. When is Chippenham Tom, maybe I can get to see these Pipers Sons, if the missus will let me :-) Surprised you haven't included Lester Simpson and his bagpipes LOL Anyway Muppitz is sure to know and aelfleda |

Other concerts will be held during the evening at the Friendship Rowing Club and aboard the Grand Turk" moored in the harbour. This should stop the problems we had last year with the Friendship venue being full.. You can email at moorcoast@yahoo.com Cheers Glen Rogers Festival Director |

A certain waggette of this parish coined the nickname - or should that be napname? |
