'never to be forgotten, that first long secret drink of golden fire, juice of those valleys, and of that time, wine of wild orchards, of russet summer, of plump red apples, and Rosie's burning cheeks'...... Laurie Lee. Cider with Rosie. ..
Heroes
Fellow appreciators of a good pint, and the superb musicians who play for us. Here is a slideshow of customers and friends.... Without people like these The Cidershed would not be the warm atmospheric place it has grown to be.Within the woodlands, flowery gladed,
By the oak tree's mossy moot,
The shining grass-blades, timber-shaded,
Now do quiver under foot;
And birds do whistle overhead,
And water's bubbling in its bed,
And there for me the apple tree
Do lean down low in Linden Lea.
When leaves that lately were a-springing
Now do fade within the copse,
And painted birds do hush their singing
Up upon the timber tops;
And brown-leaved fruit's a-turning red,
In cloudless sunshine, overhead,
With fruit for me, the apple tree
Do lean down low in Linden Lea.
Let other folk make money faster
In the air of dark-roomed towns,
I don't dread a peevish master;
Though no man do heed my frowns,
I be free to go abroad,
Or take again my homeward road
To where, for me, the apple tree
Do lean down low in Linden Lea... William Barnes. 1801-1886.
The Cidershed crew see the atmospheric JAMES GOODWIN wheelin his piana in and the reflective DAVE THOMAS thinkin he might join in and give us a BLUES treat. Brill idea.. Lets view more

"The Hand are Bristol-based musicians Rachael Dadd & Wig Smith. Together they share a love of folk, blues and world music and play an exotic array of instruments including Kora, Banjo, Ukulele, and Harmonium. They are touring the UK with Japanese solo artist Ichi, who takes the notion of a one-man band to new limits – combining steel drum with ping-pong balls, tape-loops, trumpet and xylophone.
Support comes from Norwich-based musicians Sam James Hill and Tenderlion plus Buffet Style DJ's playing music from the psyche's deli..."
@ DRAGON HALL, Norwich - Sat 20th June 2009. 7.30pm £5 on the door.
Thank you faerie much, Ryan! You can see my mens collection here, and there's also a male version of the Maple Vest coming shortly!
Please just let me know if you have any questions at all. The quickest way to contact me is via my contact form as I'm not always on myspace but check that regularly! :)
This years festival is headlined by Billy Bragg (Friday), Seth Lakeman (Sunday) and Peatbog Faeries (Saturday) with many more top artists also performing incl the award winning The Demon Barbers.
Please note there will be no Club Acoustica tommorow (25th March). I just struggled to get any acts on this time, hopefully we will either run the night next week or pick up again in a fortnight. Keep spreading the word and get in touch if you want to play!
If you get bored of drinking the old alcoholic apple-juice check out Barba Moreno's new song "Everything and More" with Norwich based musician Nick Worrall on backing vocals.
Yep, all set. We're starting to get warmed up this evening... Not bad considering only 1 out of 5 band members had instruments this time last week. See you tomorrow. x
