Burnham folk fest

headed down to catch some different folk music...not so traditional as I normally listen to....met up with friends and we all took in the Friday night concert.Black friday...a really enjoyable evening of drinking and dancing!!
The rest of the weekend we moved from pub to pub taking in the varieties of music that were on offer. Two notable bands were Fallen Apples and Armitage Skanks, not my usual listening material, but great bands both. I did an opn mic spot, singing Bay of Biscay, Diego's Bold Shore and 10,000 miles and really enjoyed it. On Sunday we heard various groups playing in the park: Bag of Rats, Dragonsfly and then Jackie Oates and Ron Trueman Border. They were all very entertaining and the rain held off right till the end. A thoroughly enjoyable weekend all round.
Tuesday evening and back to the Four Chesnuts with the fantastic Askew Sisters guesting. They performed 2 great sets and everyone really enjoyed them. Only the chance of one song each from the audience tonight, so I did The Ploughboy, one I had learned from the singing of the Watersons.
Thursday evening saw a departure from the norm, when I went to the Half Brick pub in Worthing to see Hamish Currie doing a gig. We all had a good night and I cheekily snuck in a couple of old favourites: The Bay of Biscay and Diego's Bold Shore.
Just returned from a lovely evening at the Regnum Club in Chichester where we had a very easy singaround. A great time was had by all. I sang Lord Gregory and The Grey Cockerel.
