Shanty & Sea Song Night with The Hog Eye Men, The Ivy House 40 Stuart Road, Friday 27 June, 6.30pm.
 
 
Following the great success of our Shanty and Sea Song Night in aid of the RNLI (Lifeboats) last year (we raised over £2000) we have asked The fantastic HogEye Men back to headline another night - not a charity night this time.
 
This is what they say:
 
"The HogEye Men are London’s Premier (probably ) Sea Shanty Crew, with a huge repertoire of shanties and sea-songs. We sing them as they used to be sung; simply, boldly and loudly."
 
Well, we can't disagree with any of that, and we look forward to another great evening with lots of audience participation!
 
 
Support will be from local singers Chris Lamb, Creeping Jane, James Eagle, John Haseler, Tom Kelly and Trista Selous.
 
Creeping Jane are Nyge and Sue, who run The Goose Is Out! and Chris, James, John, Tom and Trista are all fine singers who come to our monthly Singarounds.
 
At The Ivy House, London’s first community-owned pub.
 
Tickets are £10 advance, £12 on the door (cash or BACS only)
 
Door 6.30pm. Live music starts 7.30pm and finishes 10.30pm.
 
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. We and the pub management have done our best to minimise this, however as this is a listed building there are restrictions on what kinds of soundproofing can be done. We hope you understand.

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
