[Gerry]

wonderful news

it looks like we are sorted for Friday in London.

There is a freestyle on till 1 am in Crickelwood, close to Ashtons, i'm waiting for the full details, as soon as I have them i'll post them.

I haven't been before but apparently its cosy and quite social and has a WCS flavour.


anyone else interested?

Here is the website addy West Coast Swing North London which will give you directions to the Green Man for Friday nite

looks like I will get to play close to home - looking like Jiveplus in Oxford for me

That's coz it's a WCS night, not an MJ night - that's Bobgadget's venue, I believe?

[Lory]

That's coz it's a WCS night, not an MJ night -

Sorry DJ, not true! I'm reliably informed it's going to be a mix, even including some Tango and Blues, dependant on who turns up and what they want.

Its true, Bob does run a WCS night there on Tuesdays though!

Do you think a reasonable 'Utopian' person will be ok there then?

[Degodier]

whats on at Putney?

A freestyle on Saturday.

Fair enough, I missed this bit from the site:

We may even include the odd Tango, Blues, Swing or even a Jive track ! !

Hmmmm.... well, it's worth a try. But the history of mix-and-matching in the same room isn't great.

I'll await reviews with interest

[Degodier]

Oh and-

Is Chesham on Friday just an ordinary class plus hour and a half of freestyle as it says on its website, or is there something else going on?

Don't forget the Casbah in South Ken can supply the same and is probably nearer for London folk!

I'd be interested in hearing how Fletch's find turns out.....unfortunately I'm taking a 'bouncing' type friend along so can't risk it !!!

[fletch]

Poll's up

yeahhhhhhhh

That's coz it's a WCS night, not an MJ night - that's Bobgadget's venue, I believe?

how about Disco and Motown

Sorry DJ, not true! I'm reliably informed it's going to be a mix, even including some Tango and Blues, dependant on who turns up and what they want.

I'm 1st in to vote so I baggsy disco

Do you think a reasonable 'Utopian' person will be ok there then?

I would think even unreasonble people will be welcome.

so how about it S38 and DJ

OK its just a joke, I think i'm funny

Fair enough, I missed this bit from the site:

[Lory]

a 'bouncing' type friend

[Yliander]

Looks quite interesting, just a concern as to available floorspace if nothing else much on that night I suppose.

Well, info for you all as I have been asked so nicely
we do have 2 rooms, what you use them for is up to you, but the MUSIC will be the same in both rooms.
I am sure it's "cosy" enough for you all to work out to do one dance type in one room, another next door, and if neither suits you, there is a solo artist doing something in the pub.
I will have to limit numbers to make sure you are all comfortable.
CHEAP water so PLEASE don't bring your own.
CHEAP bar so please don't bring your own.

Staying on after "closing" is really up to you, and up to me to keep the volume down.

We really don't want Fletch to have to go back to her teeeeeeeens ! !

Looking forward to seeing some faces from the past.

[Astro]

smile I guessed that - but haven't managed to find any details about it - could you PM me the details?

I see what you mean. There are no details on the website.

I've been before and there is usually a fun class at 8.30.

1am finish.

£8 admission.

Very good sprung floor.

New sound system

Air conditioning

No free water. Bottled water £1.20 for a small glass bottle of Abbey Well.

2 mins from East Putney tube.

Onstreet parking.

don't worry I tend to bring my teeeens with me, I don't wan't to bee seen acting my age (28)


So what time is closing or is it open ended

[bobgadjet]

HA HA HA ha ha 28 HA HA HA

Sorry

Well, the pub closes at ??o'clock, and then a few people stay around because they don't want to go home ! !
Time passes, and the owner is nowhere to be seen and everybody is still enjoying themselves, and as long as the volume is down, and the punters behave, WHO KNOWS ! ! !

Tuesdays my time ends at 11pm, but I have often lost account of time and still had people dancing around half eleven, and thats on a Tuesday ! !

Last time I did a Friday disco for them I was gone by 12.30 and the pub was still full. I packed up and went and hey put their own music on.

Does that answer your question ?

I think, to clarify things in for you in just THREE WORDS.... sorry, FOUR words...........

I

DON'T

BL**DY

KNOW ! ! !

If we all retreat to the inner room after about 12.30, as long as I have people to play to that are enjoying themselves I will keep the music going, low volume, so I guess 1 - 1.30 would be reasonable.

OK?


This is all as long as the owner doesnt tell me to stop so, BEHAVE, please.

OH, and the water....... £1 a bottle.......... A 2 LITRE BOTTLE.

so PLEEEEEEEESE don't bring your own.

[Astro]

I see what you mean. There are no details on the website.

12.30 finish - used to be 1am

[fletch]

HA HA HA ha ha 28 HA HA HA
