Folk /Jazz Club, migratory birds return for Thurs 28th


Thanks to TAG we have had reported sightings of swallows and the hoopoe

already. We are now reliably informed that certain migratory ex pat folk

singers have also returned and will be performing once again at the

folk/jazz club on Thursday this week.


A very full program is promised with some new collaborations ( Charles

and Anna are even letting Trevor play with them!) and Charles is

recovered enough to be back to playing his fiddle.


Everyone is welcome - if you haven't been before do join us for a

convivial and relaxed evening of music and song ( if you have been

before you of course wouldn't dream of missing it!) We start promptly at

8pm at the salles de fetes in Le Riols, bring your own drinks.


The winter season at Le Riols has been a great success with a huge

variety of musicians both English and French and even some dancing and

Le Riols has proved to be a convenient location. The money for booking

the hall was raised early on in the season for a very modest entrance

fee. The last booked date in Le Riols is at the end of May and if the

club is to continue, decisions soon have to be made. Shall we stay in

Salles de fete which will need to be paid for,  do we stay at Le Riols

or look for somewhere else  and who's going to organize it? The original

concept was that the summer venues would be outside in peoples

courtyards but as yet we have had no offers of accomodation. Maybe we

need to come up with an alternative plan. Does anyone know of a Salle de

fetes we could use which has outside space which could be used in the

summer in good weather?


So do come along with or send in some ideas / suggestions, but most of

all do come along to enjoy the music!
