You're all too old, musicians should be taken out and shot at the age of 40.


Of course in 5 years time when I turn 40 I shall revise this ;-)

I have been following a lot on this forum for a while now and rarely post anything , but it does seem to me ,that

some people enjoy slating off Buisness people who are trying to make a living (very hard to do in this age)weather it be a publican or a band !

At the end of the day ,were all trying to make a living.

If you have the time to sit onfront of a screen allday , slagging off people , well it seems you have no work , and must be scrounging benifit,s . No one else has that type of time to spare, unless your the Victor Meldrew type .

I like and agree with Kingy,s post,s ,and would like to no when his band is playing again in East Dulwich.

I'm guessing you probably drink in The Cherry Tree? Wild guess, I know.


ETA: Would you like to share with us your definition of "the Victor Meldrew type"?

this is all wrong - wrong wrong wrong - face to face real - this is wrong - you know where i will be and you know who I am cos I post the gigs on here - it's not a 'forum' it's a bulletin board - there's the gig - take it or leave it - full stop

you would get more people to go to a gig round here these days if it was affiliated to a knitting/crochet club

Registered 2008 though, Da Manager 2013.


Oh sad, sad person that I am :)


ETA: And generally, the lower case "i"s are a CT giveaway, which don't appear in Dazzer's - er - case.


ETA: Though the use of "slating" is interesting, I give you ....

Well our next gig isn't affiliated to a knitting/crochet club, and it's been sold out for weeks :)


You seem to have a thing about full stops, Kingy?


ETA: And yes, face to face is real, so it's a bit hard to understand why you chose to call a pub owner a "knob" on a public forum, with no immediate explanation, and no apparent provocation save the mention of his pub on a thread.


ETA: And subsequently called him even worse, which I'm not going to repeat here.

Miller Anderson & Dr King will be playing @The Draft House on Sunday 13th October 2013 between 4:00 pm and 6:0 pm

We popped in briefly, and were amazed at the size of the band!


The place was rammed, lots of people enjoying roasts. Great way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

    • Before going to Social Media it is always worth checking out the details: Southwark's spending for this year: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-tax/how-we-manage-council-tax/our-budget-and-how-we-spend-council-tax/our-income-and As you will see, as with most if not all London Boroughs, shed loads goes on social care and children's services.  The cost of paying for residential care, and for 'specialist schools is massive.  As with other boroughs they have been hit hard by austerity under the coalition government.  And the failure by successive governments to sort out social care.  That is a thread all in its own rights. Local authorities of all political persuasions across England are facing tough times, several have gone into administration: Birmingham, Woking, Thurrock, Croydon, Slough, Northamptonshire, and Nottingham and 11 are on bailouts.   Covid will not have helped.  Some will have made some poor investment decisions in the past eg Thurrock and Woking;  Some total mismanagement and one has been hit by historical debt through not paying their workers fairly (Brum).   Reform promise simple solutions to cutting spending.  Not that easy is it Nige?
