The Greyhound Inn – Woodville – Review

Well shake me sideways and hold me up by me pincers.  What a fantastic night at The Greyhound on Saturday.   I went early as usual to take advantage of the really nice stakes they do there, remembering last time I was feeling a bit under the weather and Glen ate mine.  It was smashing and the service was great too.  They lads all started to turn up as we finished our nosh and we soon got going...

Event Cancellation – The Chase Inn

It  is with regret that we have to inform you that our Gig at The Chase Inn, Brownhills, has been cancelled by the Landlord,  who it would seem has just decided to take a different path on Saturday night entertainment and has no intention on honouring previous bookings.   This is not Debs and Phils fault and was totally out of their control.  We have plenty other gigs booked (see Gigs) so you...

This was the second year of this fluffy festival,the first being...

The Lamb – Review

Last Saturday night saw us all popping down to The Lamb in Newhall,  a unassuming little pub on Main Street set off the main road.  We all arrived pretty much together and shoehorned ourselves into the somewhat small car park.  The Lamb is quite a small venue, but has been successfully putting on live music for some time now.  The playing area is set in one end of the L shaped bar, in front of...
