No, let's go back to live music in ED, I get enough hassle on this forum as it is without starting on drummers :)) :)) :)) Not strictly in East Dulwich now, but Andy Hankdog runs the Easycome Acoustic Club on Wednesday nights. It's moved about a bit, but it's currently at the back room of The White Horse, which is the pub set back off the road on the left as you're walking from Peckham Rye common into Rye Lane. As its name suggests, it's (usually) acoustic, but there's a wide variety of music on there usually, and when I've been, the standard has generally been quite high. I realise that leaves me open to your going on a night when it's all crap, but hey ho.

There's banjo and then there's banjo ...... ETA: Just to be clear, when I said banjo players were the drummers of the folk world, I meant as the butt of jokes, not as in they're crap. In case anybody misunderstood :)

Mick Mac Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > No. Did I say it had ? xxxxxx "I really respected him" sounded like you thought the allegations were true, as the statement was referring to the past, as in "I really respected him but now I don't" ..... sorry if I misunderstood!

You'd think a load of punters buying drinks would be better than an empty space. But on the other hand, the Goose started out at the EDT, and after six rammed gigs with another gig coming up which had sold out months in advance, discovered that we were being kicked out so that they could start a "private members' club" upstairs. Long story short, the private members' club was a dismal failure, as anyone could have predicted, but we'd be a bit wary of starting a regular night there again anyway in case they turned the space back into a restaurant again. Nun's Head kicking off with Thomas McCarthy, on 11 January. Bit of an acquired taste if you're not a folk fan as he sings unaccompanied songs from an Irish Traveller tradition. Banjo - well, banjo players are the drummers of the folk world, innit. But we had the amazing Robin Gillan singing into his banjo at the Aquarius Festival in the summer. And Jason Steel last Saturday brought his banjo across London to play just one song in a thirty minute set, started tuning it and a string broke. He had to sing the song unaccompanied (it was brilliant). Banjo karma, eh.

Somebody from there posted on here a while ago giving details - have you tried doing a search on the forum?

I know several people who use Garageband, and it is supposed to be excellent. Can I have a cheap iPad now? :))

Well hang on, if it's allegations, nothing has been proved yet has it?

I hear there's an > internet site which gives you alternative numbers > or something? xxxxxxx There used to be an internet site giving alternative numbers, but it seems to have gone. Try googling the specific number you want and adding "free" or "alternative" to the search. I was really pissed off not long ago when my bank gave me the number of another bank I needed to speak to and gave me an 0845 number, and after being on the phone to the second bank for ages, I discovered that there was an 0800 number I could have used. GRRRRRR!!!!!

Jeremy Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Sorry, The Goose is a local folk music > collective. > http://www.thegooseisout.com/ > xxxxxxx Blimey, I never knew we were a collective :)) Nygel (FlapJackDavey) and I run it, with a fantastic bunch of people who help on the night. You just missed a brilliant night on Saturday (moved from The Ivy House) with Wizz Jones headlining. The place was packed. And that was sadly the last Goose gig Upstairs At The Mag. From January we are moving our Mag nights to the room upstairs at The Old Nun's Head. I imagine the reason there isn't more live music Upstairs At The EDT is because they want a guarantee of a certain minimum number of people each night, and if you fall short they charge an arm and a leg for room hire. So one night with fewer people there, and you could be bankrupt.

Somebody who is unstable for some reason, and who knows they can be identified, could react in ways you might prefer they didn't.

The "obviously lighthearted dig" did not come across in that way to me. I am not anonymous on this forum, plus the so-called "dig" also involved somebody else who was named. I had not been posting on this thread, and there was absolutely no reason to suddenly refer to me, let alone in such an offensive manner. The Cherry Tree thread concerned a local business who quite demonstrably had mistreated a number of its employees and had faked at least one post. There were many other people posting on it apart from myself, so I'm not clear why you should single me out. Perhaps you would care to share with us all what the "moral" is, as no, I cannot work it out for myself.

What "hypocrisy" (sic)? Are you suggesting that I made offensive personal remarks of a sexual nature about a named person on the Cherry Tree thread?

It was so long ago I've probably forgotten :))

You are likely to be very tempted, though :)

Well that's going to be great for the kids, isn't it, seeing their Christmas and their parents being splashed all over a paper ........

Jah Lush Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Do they still do Lucky Sevens on Thursday > nights? xxxxxx I was about to ask the same question! I even borrowed some of my sister's old 45s, but then I never went back. The only time I did it, some f-er played one of the ones I'd taken down, and I didn't have anything else with me, so I had to play it again :( My Girl, Otis Redding, I think it was :))

I had the misfortune to go there once - but it least it was as a "mystery shopper", so at least I wasn't paying :)) Both our main courses were sent back - can't remember why now, it was years ago.

Heartwarming :) Have a lovely Christmas Watevs xxx

PaulK Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Well Sue, it gives you something else to moan > about xxxxxx Click on my name. Look at all my posts. Work out the percentage of my posts which are "moaning" about something - depending on how you define "moaning", of course. Let me know when you've done it. It's probably less than 1% in the years I have been posting on here. I have looked at yours. Says it all, really. And thanks, Civil Servant :)

I do have a sense of humour - which does not include this kind of "humour", either about myself or anybody else who is named in person. I strongly object to being the butt of an offensive personal comment which also involves a local tradesperson. You should be ashamed of yourself, AC, particularly as you have met me off the forum. And could the people who have quoted it also delete that part of their post please, thanks.
