Friday 3rd November 2006

Now I know some people actually read this stuff, I am spurred to continue! The Wednesday Irish was much improved by being back in the snug and it was a good night. Remember I talked about session dynamics ages ago? Well missing our lead banjo has definitely altered the whole atmosphere of the Irish session and it feels as though we're settling into a new groove after wandering for a bit. Some of the old craic was back and the banter was good.

The English (mixed-lumpy) at the Bear was as good as you could wish for and complemented this week by keyboard player Lizzy with her Roland (that's the instrument, not a partner). Mercifully free this week from bangy thumpy and twangy things executing random acts of avant garde music on the poor unsuspecting traditional tunes. It won't last.

There will be a session at the Anchor, Faversham this Sunday to compensate for being moved last week to the Three Tuns. Rose and Crown Stelling Minnis, still undecided. Yew Tree Barfrestone, still no news.
