Woo hoo indeed! Just couldn't believe this the first time we went, and will be taking a Saturday off work to go to this year's festival. Two stages (indoors and out) brilliant live music and a great venue (wonderful view over London) - right on our doorstep! Music highlights were many but would name check Steve Boltz and Country Dirt.

I'm not connected to the Aquarius, but just want to spread the word.

Our wonderful sponsors Bushells of lordship Lane will be putting up their promotional boards all around the area today. Thankyou so much to Bushells for their kind support, and all of the lovely folk that help us to spread the word about SE London's biggest little music festival! Full line up and poster coming soon!!

Just back on the set list - Country Dirt, featuring a new vocalist. They will be slamming the indoor stage at the end of the day, around 7.00pm.


Still working on the final running orders. Be patient with me.



A taste of last year's frivolities. It looks sparsely populated, but we had over 1000 visitors last year.


This years line up is even better!!! With a few regulars too. Keep your eyes peeled for posters/the facebook event page. All going live this weekend.

Best little festival ever have the sign up Brian and will be bringing a group of friends to enjoy the great day. Fingers crossed it will be as good as weather as last year and don't forget to bring a woolie for when night falls.
Southwark Events team have asked if there is a website, I've linked the FB page and put your brief about it up but if there is a webpage would be handy. contact [email protected] or give me a shout and I'll pass it on for you

Brian have posted it over on Urban 75 the Brixton based forum and the ed has kindly suggested to add it to the Brixton Buzz events listing. I'll leave it to you to add if you want.

Miller Andersen - who brilliantly finishes off the festival in the bar is one of the best guitarists I have ever heard and a brilliant singer as well. His performance of Pictured Within by Jon Lord at the Royal Albert Hall is a masterpiece.


Also appearing, local emerging talent Jack Joseph, solo performances on the indoor stage.


Really pleased to have uncovered this young man, who was supporting Miller Anderson at last weekend's Ivy House gig.


 

Hot news!!! Jessica Radcliffe will be opening the day's performances on the indoor stage, with a set of beautiful, cool jazz, accompanied by some of SE London's finest young musicians. If you like Diana Krall, you'll just love her vocal.




Class!!!

The final piece of the puzzle. Closing the indoor stage ahead of a bar room blitz by Miller Anderson & the Prisonaires, here's your Jazz Funk mystery band - the amazing Changing Motion. An acclaimed line up of this guitar/keyboard focussed group, these guys have a CV that reads like a history of modern British music, with credits like The Commitments, Heatwave, the Three Degrees, the Drifters, Billy Paul etc. etc.


Jazz with a huge slice of funk.


What a way to end the day, onstge indoors from around 7.00.

    • For a while there was an unexpected glitch in planning laws that meant phone box operators (which is obviously mostly BT, but there were others) didn't need council permission to replace call boxes with small electronic billboards, so long as you could make calls from the billboard. I *think* the one on the corner of Croxted Rd and Park Hall Rd is an example of that. So the operators weren't always in a rush to remove the call boxes even when they didn't make any money on calls. I don't know if it still works like this. https://www.local.gov.uk/about/news/lga-call-crackdown-trojan-telephone-boxes-amid-900-cent-rise-some-areas
    • It is just a witch hunt. The estate agent has taken responsibility. FFS leave the poor woman alone. ETA: And please  stop calling her Rachel. You don't call Starmer Keir.
    • As said, why are you not eating humble pie for a non-story? I expect that scores of landlords are unaware or made mistakes in this territory.  And this is not just the Chancellor but a married couple.  It feels like you and others are taking joy in demonising her. The only question would be is the house suitable for renting out?  I expect it is, and if not that is up to Southwark to take action rather than keyboard warriors.  The only surprises are the expense of licensing - surely time for a thread on "is licensing a money maker for local authorities?".  I'm being facetious.  And that the cost of rental, which feels fairly reasonable based on this area. By all means go after rogue landlords.  Be my guest.  I was horrified to see some of the properties rented in London and beyond by family members.  Not all bad. Oh and another question.  Haven't I got better things to do than comment on this 'no story here' thread?  😁
