*TICKETING &amp; DOOR POLICY*
Whilst we occasionally run ticketed Friday Night Specials, entry for our regular weekly Thursday club nights is on a first-come-first-served basis and unticketed and we do not take advanced seat bookings.

Entry for regular club nights is free, we pay our guests by way of a *CASH* collection. Whilst we understand that some simply haven't the means to make a contribution and absolutely DO NOT wish to exclude them, we expect those who can to make as generous a donation as they are able in recognition of our guest's work.

*MARK HEARNE
Born in England to Irish parents, singing was always in Mark's family. His dad sang in a band called the Morganairs who were famous around the north and midlands. Mark started to play guitar at the age of 10 and joined the South Yorkshire Youth Jazz Orchestra in his teens.
 
Mark got on the folk scene via the Rock at Wentworth where he was a floor turn many times before entering and winning the Best New Act at Wath and then Stainsby folk festivals. Later on he played pubs, restaurants etc. in various guises (Mark O'Flynn being his alter - ego for the Irish theme pubs). His latest venture is to get back on the acoustic/folk scene and he has a CD ("Too Thinly Clad") available. Mark's day job is teaching guitar in schools.

If all goes to plan there should be a few traditional Irish and Scottish folk songs and a few guitar solos, all own - arrangements, as well as a couple of light jazz numbers. There will even be a couple of sixties chart-toppers thrown in and if it's in a good mood the banjo will get an airing.
 

*PLEASE CHECK FOR UPDATES BEFORE SETTING OUT*
Life is full of unexpected ups and downs, illness, weather and other unexpected things can spoil the best made plans. We may sometimes have to change our guest at short notice, or even cancel an evening altogether. To avoid disappointment please re-visit the relevant night's event for updates *BEFORE* setting out.


Doors open 8:15, *PLEASE WAIT DOWNSTAIRS UNTIL CALLED*

Singers and musicians of all standards and styles are welcome to come along and do a short floor spot.

Free entry: Collection &amp; raffle for guest.
