Hi Mrs A!



I think a number of us are (Mrs K? Are Fleet still going?)



The ONLY decent pub in Reading is the Hobgoblin on Broad Street. Otherwise it's mainly the usual hell of Wetherspoons and It's a Screams' you get in towns with a sizeable student population these days /. We went in the Volunteers (?I think) on St Marys Butts last time we went to the Hexagon (it's kind of opposite) which was OK, but very smoky.



See you there, we are in the standing bit!



Cheers

I wil be there with the Fi and Nick etc.


Just hope I stand up to it better than I did at the last Bellowhead gig at the Zodiac, where I made a right prat of myself by collapsing (through illness, nothing more, alas).


See you there

Really enjoyed the gig last night, what I saw of it - why did it start SO EARLY? 730 on a ticket doesn't normally mean the starting time! (well not where Oysterband are concerned anyway)


But  it was a great set, and a special highlight was the singing of The Holly And The Ivy with Oysterband - that is the traditional tune and I love it.


thanks guys hope to see you again soon

The Holly And The Ivy was great, I've not heard that version of the tune before but I do like it.


J&J any chance of playing it on Monday night at Nettlebed?

I didn't see you Mrs A but I did have a look round! And Oxford Trunkles, you remain unfound! .



It was a great gig, I think I've heard the Oysters do Holly & Ivy before, can't remember where...maybe the Big Session gig in London a couple of years back...?



Cheers

I knew there was an Oysterband thread somewhere on this board! but couldn't find it this morning


So yes, once again we missed you Trunkles, but had a good old singalong  to both J&J and the Oysters, imbibed a few too many  and still managed to get the right train home again. It was a good night 


Cheers
