John Spiers + Aartwork + Emma & The Hot Tub Men : The Goose Is Out! The Ivy House 40 Stuart Road SE15 3BE. Fri 28 Oct, 7PM.


Advance tickets available here : http://www.wegottickets.com/thegooseisout



Ex Bellowhead, Ex Spiers and Boden, melodeon player extraordinaire ? we are delighted to be welcoming John Spiers back to the Goose, this time in a solo capacity!


It was only during his time studying natural sciences at King?s College, Cambridge that John bought his first melodeon as a way of continuing to play music in a room too small to house a piano. This chance purchase opened up a whole world of new music making and the early exposure to morris dancing suddenly found a context. Highly influenced by the recordings of John Kirkpatrick and with the generous support of the local folk club, his playing advanced very quickly indeed,


John would also take his Melodeon out and about to pub sessions. It was at one such session he met Jon Boden, and the rest they say ...


Aartwork offer something quite eclectic With fiddle and recorder on melody, jazzy acoustic guitar, electric bass and cahon/drums in the rhythm section, Aartwork blend original Celtic style tunes with bluesy/jazzy grooves.

Emma & The Hot Tub Men play an eclectic mixture of original blues and traditional folk songs, with the odd French cover thrown in.

    • I completely agree with you . Its as if they have their foot in the door and are just pushing and pushing. It's ridiculous. It's not the right space. they clearly do not give any regard to the environment or they would move it.  
    • There's a great badminton club at the Harris girls academy. It runs Friday from 5.30 to 6.45. for more experienced players, they have sessions on Wednesday and Friday, too but that's subject to skill levels 
    • There seem to be all sorts of blocks for this event being mounted on the Common, one is that it was 'designed especially' for the current site, though the organisers seem to have had absolutely no problem rejigging their plans to the original site footprint to expand the event to what we had last year- which I think really imposed on a large part of the park and spoilt the feel. I would suggest pressing very hard for relocation to the Common ( also closer to transport links). There must be a way, surely? If not, then wholesale relocation to a more suitable venue. I just do not think the park should be subjected to a festival-goer footfall of 60,000 plus over the summer.
    • I absolutely will. Fed up of property developments that are funded from offshore investors and price out local people. Fed up of the demise of social rents and the growing crisis of families in bed and breakfast. Fed up of young people being unable to save deposits, start families and generally have the same security of tenure that previous generations had. So yes, I will drill down into the financing, affordability, where the properties aer being advertised for sale, and how many are genuinely for social rent. Otherwise, no opposition to redeveloping that site in that way.
