Hi everyone

Following the success of Brian's Newton Abbot shindig we have decided to organise the Sidcup cigar box soiree. To be held on Saturday 10th September 2011 at the Old Bexley & Sidcup Conservative Club 19 Station Road, Sidcup, DA15 7EB.
Confirmed so far are StumbleCol, Lost Tone, Slowpaw Steve T, Roadkill aka John Maw and Brickdust & Pyno. Anyone else interested in taking part please get in touch and we will take it from there. Further details to follow when we get an idea of potential performers.

Only coming over for the day for this one, 24 miles - though going central London might take an hour or two to get there...!!

Looking forward to trying out my new rhythm section! (-;

Just a quick reminder guys we have confirmed with the venue for the 10th September, if anybody else would like to come and play please get in touch , one song or a full set all are welcome. As soon as we have an idea of how many performers we have we will finalise timings etc.

Best of luck with it..I'm busy all that weekend in Brum with ArtFest..HGMC stall and gig on the Saturday, Sunday gig with Chickenbone Blues..enjoy yourselves.

Two weeks to go to the Soiree, just a couple of questions Dave and Steve about the PA etc, is there an in-house system there, and are the punters listeners or headbangers...or both ? (-;
