We are delighted to be welcoming Phil Beer back to the Goose!

Phil Beer "plays guitar and fiddle and sings a bit". These are his words, not ours! He has been doing this extremely well for over 45 years as a solo artist, a collaborator, and as part of the highly successful Show of Hands.

Phil first began to play fiddle, guitar and mandolin whilst still at school in Teignmouth, Devon. This passion for acoustic music was especially stirred by the Davy (later known as Davey) Graham album Folk, Blues and Beyond.

"A Phil Beer gig is one spent in the company of a true craftsman, a master musician and a consummate performer" - Spiral Earth (and who are we to disagree?!)

James Eagle is an unaccompanied singer on the London club scene, as well as editor of Folk London magazine. This, his first album, is a collection of favourites old and new: working life, war, love, loss and jealousy.

Creeping Jane are Nygel & Sue, who started The Goose Is Out! In 2008 and have been running it ever since. They sing unaccompanied, both in unison and in harmony, mainly songs from the UK.

This concert will be half seated, half standing, so come early if you want to be sure of a seat!

Please be aware that whilst our events are held in The Ivy House's beautiful Grade 2 listed ballroom, this is a pub, so there may be some background noise from adjoining bars, although we and the pub management have done our best to minimise this.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
