The Spittalbrook was not too busy, but had some really good performers down – it's not an ideal venue but it is a long established club and some of Stafford's best ever folk nights have been down there, the Spittalbrook has something of a chequered career, being originally a Trad folk club that slowly morphed into an acoustic session club and now it looks like it is leaning towards trad and trad style folk again which may or may not be good news, depending on your point of view, but I think there will always be a warm welcome for all musicians and singers at the Spittalbrook.</FONT></DIV> <DIV style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=yiv2025028159MsoNormal><FONT face=Calibri> </FONT></DIV> <DIV style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=yiv2025028159MsoNormal><FONT face=Calibri>The Rose and Crown is still going from strength to strength under its careful nurturing by Jeff and the Spring Chickens.

It is so difficult trying to make sure that everyone gets a fair hearing especially when all of the performers are first rate!! I do hope no one went home disappointed with their 'turn' but, speaking for me; I get more pleasure from listening to good quality music performed well than attempting to play it myself!</FONT></DIV> <DIV style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=yiv2025028159MsoNormal><FONT face=Calibri> </FONT></DIV> <DIV style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=yiv2025028159MsoNormal><FONT face=Calibri>Next week is shaping up like this;</FONT></DIV> <DIV style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=yiv2025028159MsoNormal><FONT face=Calibri> </FONT></DIV> <DIV style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt" class=yiv2025028159MsoNormal><FONT face=Calibri>Monday – Four Crosses Cannock.

Anyone who was worried about this gig being too loud or an all-standing affair can rest assured as it was announced that this will be ahab's three-piece acoustic line-up. After February's predicted bad weather, appendicitis has struck this time with Callum hospitalised last weekend. So we can expect Luke, Dave and Seebs, great harmonies, a batch of new songs and no doubt a constant swapping of guitar, bass and mandolin. The guys have been playing in this format all week and by all accounts the tour is going really well. We are sticking with the original support slots for Ali Heath and Hollie Lucas.

Influenced as much by the minimalist eccentricity of Steve Reich, Antony & The Johnsons, Robert Wyatt and Miles Davis, as they are by their Geordie native North East England, they prove that staunch traditionalism and sonic adventure need not be opposites. For the past three years, The Unthanks have toured as a ten piece troupe but this handful of shows sees the Tynesiders return to where they began, playing cosier venues - they've grown used to cathedrals and large concert halls - with just their core quintet for a more intimate experience.<BR><BR>Much Wenlock The Edge Arts Centre on Wednesday 2nd May <A href="http://www.wegottickets.com/af/5/event/151132">tickets/info</A><BR>***<BR><BR><EM>Follow WeGotTickets on <A href="http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/WeGotTickets/40707078898">Facebook</A> and <A href="http://twitter.com/WeGotTickets">Twitter</A> for up-to-the-minute ticket news for your favourite venues, festivals and artists, updates as top events go on sale, and even more competitions and special offers.</EM></P></DIV> <DIV style="MARGIN: 10px"><BR></DIV> <H3 style="MARGIN: 10px">Events now on sale in North-West England</H3> <DIV style="MARGIN: 10px"><BR><A href="http://www.wegottickets.com/af/5/event/151730">"MY DARLING CLEMENTINE" - MICHAEL WESTON KING & LOU DALGLEISH</A> at Liverpool Grateful Fred's @ Formby British Legion on Thu 7th Jun, 2012 £8.00 <BR><A href="http://www.wegottickets.com/af/5/f/3879">8TH WIRRAL FOLK ON THE COAST FESTIVAL</A> at Whitby Sports and Social Club, Chester Road/Dunkirk Lane, ELLESMERE PORT, Cheshire, CH65 6QF on 7th - 10th June 2012 <BR><BR><B>A</B><BR><A href="http://www.wegottickets.com/af/5/event/152308">ALUN PARRY AT RADICAL LIVERPOOL</A> at Liverpool Studio 2 on Sat 11th Feb, 2012 £4.50 <BR><BR><B>C</B><BR><A href="http://www.wegottickets.com/af/5/f/3889">CHESTER FOLK FESTIVAL 2012 - TICKETS FOR FRIDAY ONLY</A> at Kelsall, nr.

Having seen both Caroline and Phil as solo artists over recent years round the clubs, I was amazed at just how far they've progressed as a duo. The lovely Caroline (looks younger every year) on piano and Accordion and Phil the Fluter provided some lovely polished sounds from Ireland to Poland to America in a most entertaining evening.

Always a busy night and will still be busy this week I should think, not everyone from the Spittalbrook is going to Scotland, so the session will run as normal.<BR><BR>Wednesday has the fabulous Pie & Ale sit 'n listen club. Always a good night to be had here, and one that I will be very sorry to miss this week. If you go, please remember to buy a raffle ticket, it all helps with the possibilities of putting guest nights on, talking of which - Bernard Wrigley on 30th November, still some tickets left, don't take a chance on buying on the door, you will be disappointed!
