Fo'c'sle Programme February 2000
4 Anything Goes
11 Geoff Ridden & Peter Dixon
An incomparable evening of poetry, music and relevant irreverance! Between them, local heroes Pete & Geoff have over one hundred years experience of entertaining, badgering and pummelling audiences into submission. Pete has recently toured Belgium with Benjamin Zephaniah and last November could be found tired and emotional on a Cypriot beach with Forkbeard Fantasy. Geoff is a man who needs no introduction... at least not to his wife and the local constabulary. A man whose beard goes before him and whose trousers follow shortly after... a guitarist of immeasurable talent and height. The Flanders and Swann of the new millennium, the Eric and Ernie of post-modern vaudeville and the Marx and Engels of the Fulflood Arms. Unmissable!

| A night with Harvey Andrews is a night to put you in touch with yourselves, with your past and your present, with parenthood and childhood, with work and play. With humour and insight Harvey examines our lives and reminds us what it's all about. |  |
He's as fine a raconteur as he is a singer and a writer, so turn up and prepare to be seriously entertained by someone who can genuinely claim to have done it all successfully for 35 years! |
