Fridays 8.00pm at the The Lamp Tavern, Barford Street, Highgate, B5 6AH.
To those of you who are regulars, visitors and guest to the club and who have always been interested in our fairly unique backdrop and in recognition of the recent changes to it, we thought you might like a potted history.
Graeme's rich baritone voice draws you to join in the singing. His repertoire encompasses traditional love songs, mining songs, shanties, gospel songs, drinking and Music Hall songs and some more recently written contemporary songs – many with good enjoyable and sing able choruses. His delivery and presence make for a most memorable evening. Come and give your lungs an airing for Graeme’s first visit.
Graham Meek and Barry Goodman present “Where the working boats went”, an evening of music, song and story about the history of the working boats on the canals, complete with costumes and a slideshow. Cracking songs mostly self penned, great accompaniment and plenty of opportunity to join in. A night not to be missed by the many fans of waterways.
Saturday Dec 11th, 2010, The Holy Name Parish Centre, Birmingham Road, Great Barr, B43 6LN.

Captain Swing have been playing for our Ceilidhs for many a year and as such have brought us lots joy and sore feet. The band, which celebrated it's 20th anniversary last year, comprises Liz Griffiths (recorders, anglo-concertina, tenor sax, percussion), Rob James (guitar), Andy Casserley (melodeon, anglo-concertina, clarinet), John Davis (bass guitar, recorder) and their caller Mike Griffiths, who keeps us on our toes.

It gives us great pleasure to welcome back Tom the wonderful Geordie fiddler and vocalist with yet another young talented musician and singer David. The onstage rapport between these two and the joy of performing together shine through their performance. Tom’s humour is a bonus both for us and David. Come early for a seat.
