Celtic Sessions
If you have been looking for the Wednesday
Celtic session at the George Inn, Stone St.
this is back in place with a swing, until further notice,
but there are also now sessions in
a number of pubs on different days of the week:
Wednesday:
at the George Inn, Stone St.
Thurday:
This has now moved to the Three Tuns, 16 Tannery St., Faversham;
There is also a mixed session/folk evening in the Kings Head, Hythe.
On the 1st Sunday there is a Celtic session at the Shipwrights Arms, Faversham;
On the 2nd Sunday there is the White Horse, Chilham,
which is a mixed Blues / Celtic / Country evening;
The last Sunday Celtic session at Deal has no home at the moment.
KentFolk paid a visit to the Cajun Barn for
Trans-Bayou Cajun Band from France/Louisiana,
on the 30th November,
Cajun Barn,
Eltham - go to their website and join at least 48h prior.
This is a short video clip - click on it and it should down-load
and play. It is 3.6 MBytes, so unless you have broadband there will be
a very noticable delay.

This is a very short video clip - click on it and it should down-load and play. It is 1 MBytes, so there will still be a noticable delay. |
This is an even shorter video test clip - click on it and it should down-load and play. It is just under 200 kBytes, so there will still be a delay. |
Please tell me if these work for you - they work fine via an optical fibre at work, so should be OK with broadband, but only the shortest one works for me from home via a modem.
