JOHN HARVEY TUNES SESSION, BEAR YARD, LEWES
TUESDAY 6th. NOVEMBER 8.00 - 11.00 PM
The usual English tunes session comes round again. Some of us are likely
to be a bit charred round the edges, assuming that we're still at liberty in
the first place. If you'd like to lead one of these sessions, which are always
on the first Tuesday of the month, let me know. Keith Macdonald and Brian
Cooper have just earmarked the February 2008 session.
CONCERTINAS ANONYMOUS

November.
This is Bryan Creer's regular free session for concertina players of all
systems and abilities. What happens depends largely on who turns up, but
there's usually some part-playing at some stage and a few session tunes get
severely beaten up.
