Subject: Bluegrass & Old-Time Music - S E England

A big choice of music events to go to this weekend  (as the weather seems to preclude the seaside), including a banjo masterclass with Leon Hunt at the London Acoustic Show today (12.30), Mick Allchorne tomorrow (11.30 through lunch) at the charming Capel Church with medieval wall-paintings, arts/crafts, and tea and cake, or an afternoon singing from the Sacred Harp in East Finchley, followed by the Cask session in Pimlico, or the Growling Old Men in West Sussex from 5.30pm, or the Gentlemen of Few in Maidstone (also 5.30pm), then the lovely Hatful of Rain in the evening at Horsham - for the complete list see below

Have a good time

Rick

!! Advance warning - the RNLI charity concert in Croydon will be on 5th December this year !!
