heh, not in ED.. it's far too mumsy and middle classed for all that ;-)


Boho/Adventure did live Jazz midweek for a bit but not sure that's still on, perhaps the wrong crowd?


I reckon you'll have to go to Peckham or Brixton for that kind of thing


This place in Peckham is meant to be quite cool: http://www.clfartcafe.org/Site/HOME.html


Or there's the Hootananny in Brixton: http://www.hootanannybrixton.co.uk/ they've a large outdoor area at the front


I lived 2 mins from that in Herne Hill for 2 years but never visited it... think I might be remedying that tomorrow!


let me know what you decide on if it's not something I've mentioned... always keen to know about new places!

xxxxxxxxxx


We had a sell-out gig at DHFC on Friday night with well over 200 people there, of all ages, to see Martin Simpson.


Too boring for live music?


Not.


ETA: But it wasn't the kind of music mentioned in the OP, which was why I haven't posted before.


ETA: One of the emails we received afterwards (wouldn't normally do this but but a bit peeved that people seem to think there's nothing decent happening locally with live music :)):


"Just wanted to let you know that me and my friends had an utterly utterly BRILLIANT night on Friday. You know when you enjoyed it so much you feel quite exhausted after? Thanks so much for running these nights they are an absolute institution. It was so great to have performers of all ages too. I can't wait for the next one."

And if anyone fancies seeing a band who play sixteen different instruments between them, come and see


Crownstreet


Upstairs at the Mag on Friday 8 June.


OK you might think it's not your thing, but on the other hand you might be pleasantly surprised ....


But - it's LIVE MUSIC IN EAST DULWICH which The Goose Is Out! has been putting on on a regular basis for over four years ..... :))

Have you tried the Old Nuns Head pub? We saw "Eli-rose and Garry" about a month or so ago. They did soul, r n b & soft rock covers and we had a great time & really enjoyed their range of music. She is young & has a fabulous voice and he's a great guitarist and they had someone on percussion too which was nice. They have a room upstairs for private functions and we've been to a couple of parties up there too. The pub posts in the What's On in East Dulwich section. Worth a look perhaps. . . ;-) PS And they have an outside space - a beer garden with tables.

    • Eh? That wasn't "my quote"! If you look at your post above,it is clearly a quote by Rockets! None of us have any  idea what a Corbyn led government during Covid would have been like. But do you seriously think it would have been worse than Johnson's self-serving performance? What you say about the swing of seats away from Labour in 2019 is true. But you have missed my point completely. The fact that Labour under Corbyn got more than ten million votes does not mean that Corbyn was "unelectable", does it? The present electoral system is bonkers, which is why a change is apparently on the cards. Anyway, it is pointless discussing this, because we are going round in circles. As for McCluskey, whatever the truth of that report, I can't see what it has to do with Corbyn?
    • Exactly what I said, that Corbyn's group of univeristy politics far-left back benchers would have been a disaster during Covid if they had won the election. Here you go:  BBC News - Ex-union boss McCluskey took private jet flights arranged by building firm, report finds https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp3kgg55410o The 2019 result was considered one of the worst in living memory for Labour, not only for big swing of seats away from them but because they lost a large number of the Red-wall seats- generational Labour seats. Why? Because as Alan Johnson put it so succinctly: "Corbyn couldn't lead the working class out of a paper bag"! https://youtu.be/JikhuJjM1VM?si=oHhP6rTq4hqvYyBC
    • Agreed and in the meantime its "joe public" who has to pay through higher prices. We're talking all over the shop from food to insurance and everything in between.  And to add insult to injury they "hurt " their own voters/supporters through the actions they have taken. Sadly it gets to a stage where you start thinking about leaving London and even exiting the UK for good, but where to go????? Sad times now and ahead for at least the next 4yrs, hence why Govt and Local Authorities need to cut spending on all but essential services.  An immediate saving, all managerial and executive salaries cannot exceed and frozen at £50K Do away with the Mayor of London, the GLA and all the hanging on organisations, plus do away with borough mayors and the teams that serve them. All added beauracracy that can be dispensed with and will save £££££'s  
    • The minimum wage hikes on top of the NICs increases have also caused vast swathes of unemployment.
