Ballads and Banter with Phil Odgers and Paul Simmonds
at
Green Note
London
13:30
Description
With over 40 years of adventures on the musical ocean to their name, these two mainstays of
The Men They Couldn’t Hang come laden with a wealth of stories, songs and anecdotes; from the
hilarious, the poignant and the genuinely historic.
From fighting the Punk Rock Wars to playing with The Clash; from early 80’s squatting and
busking to playing with Bowie and the Pogues, from surreal jaunts to Egypt and Iceland to bizarre
encounters with the Music Industry and a ring side view of the last forty years of rock and roll
carnival; Odgers and Simmonds bring not only the songs and stories, but also the lives lived in
the lottery of good and bad luck.
Some say you wont find the answers in the bottom of a glass. But perhaps in our interactive
format you’ll find the questions! : ) This promises to be a heart-warming celebration of simple
human spirit; a chance to laugh, sing, relax and partake. Bring your dancing ears.
Description
Green Note was founded by two friends and passionate music lovers who wanted to create their ideal place to hang out in London...
Our dream was to create a place where we could share music that we loved – somewhere with a laid back, intimate and friendly atmosphere. Becoming friends in our school days, the seed for our idea was planted many years ago. After lots of hard work, many ups and downs, and learning more than we ever could have imagined along the way, our dream became a reality when Green Note opened its doors in the Summer of 2005. Now in our fourteenth year, we have established a reputation as one of London’s best spots for roots, world and acoustic music, and we’re constantly astonished by the wealth of incredible musicians who grace our stage. We’re really proud of what we have created, and happy to be able to share it with you.
