    The Market Vaults.

    Well, I'm glad that guy's gone and I expect to set foot in the place again soon, for the first time since September! Whoever's taking over, it can only be an improvement. But I hope they're gonna do something about the decor! Based on the photographs I've seen it's bloody horrific. Looks...

    The Dog House.

    Amending my reply again. Please just ignore. Shouldn't be allowed access to the internet when I've had this much alcohol... (Erm...)

    The Tap Bar & Restaurant - the old Tap and Spile.

    Been there for food this afternoon. I had Haggis & Black Stack to start, followed by Pork Chop Plate, and then the cheesecake. Also two pints of Ghost Ship. Fantastic, I hope to be back soon. :D :banana: :up:

    The Tap Bar & Restaurant - the old Tap and Spile.

    Ales available yesterday were: - Sharp’s Atlantic - Sharp’s Doom Bar - Adnams’ Ghost Ship - Shepherd Neame’s Spitfire I had a Spitfire followed by a Ghost Ship. Both decent enough pints. Also some interesting ciders and lagers on tap for those who are into that kind of thing.

    The Dog House.

    I think they've ruined a lot of DCs and quite a few Marvels too - looks like they're using comics as wallpaper!

    The Floodgate.

    Just wanted to give a shout-out to this, happening on Monday at the Floodgate! Possibly the first live music there since Hymn For Her (with support from our very own @Goldilox!) which was back in July, I think…? I’ve been to a few gigs there and have had some truly magical nights. For...

    The Market Vaults.

    Well, in light of the fact that Stafford’s number one live music pub now seems to be being run by someone who either doesn’t know how to run such an establishment or perhaps just doesn’t care (or maybe a bit of both), I am heartened these past couple of days to see Stafford respond in the...

    The Dog House.

    Fingers crossed, it’ll be more like the Vaults than the Fake Plastic Vaults we have now.

    The Dog House.

    So this'll be the place that used to be Satchmo's...?

    The Market Vaults.

    Entropy, my feeling is that the new chap is maybe trying to do things on the cheap. I presume it’s less costly to book fakers, rather than real musicians. Absolutely no kidding, we got in there and I’m at the bar and I can hear Basket Case by Green Day, and it was definitely Basket Case by...

    The Market Vaults.

    Hey forumites. Long time no posts from me. Decided to speak up on this though, following a Saturday night experience at The Market Vaults. Florence and I and another chap (whom I don’t think is registered here, but let’s call him The Golden Cod) have been in the Vaults many Saturday nights...

    ***** Today is Gramaisc’s 60th birthday! *****

    Yeah, sorry to those of you who weren't able to attend because you weren't aware it was even happening! We did the best we could. It was a bit tricky keeping it secret while also letting people in on it, and the forum had restrictions on the numbers of forumites who could be included in the...

    ***** Today is Gramaisc’s 60th birthday! *****

    ***** Today is Gramaisc’s 60th birthday! *****

    As he’s now at my house and won’t have any access to internet, I am publicly announcing here on the forum that there’s a surprise party tonight for Gramaisc’s 60th at The Market Vaults! Some of you have been in on this for a while via private messaging, but we haven’t gone public with it as...

    Live music at the MET Studio

    Hi there. Thought I’d mention a couple more of these which are both happening next week. (I think these are probably the last two of the year, and then I’m not sure if there’s anything else of interest music-wise at The MET until January.) First of all, on Monday there’s Jess Morgan who has a...

    Live music at the MET Studio

    Outstanding show by Luke Jackson last night and numbers appear to be on the rise for these gigs too, which is great to see. Were any other forumites present? Now only three nights to go until the Oxjam event!

    Live music at the MET Studio

    Looks like an absolutely brilliant event, Oxjam! And only a few days to go now until Luke Jackson. Looking forward to it.

    Live music at the MET Studio

    Hi again, forumites. Florence and I enjoyed Friday night tremendously. Next of these gigs is Monday the 6th of October with Luke Jackson, a hugely talented young man from Canterbury. Check him out here: It is now possible to buy tickets online via the Gatehouse website, although I still...
