The Theme is SHOES!
Tonight - we cobble together sole music and tales with sole.

Mr. Bojangles danced the old soft shoe with an old sole on his worn out shoes.
O My Darlin' Clementine's sole was a fairy-light size nine!
But were they Golden Slippers?
Paul Simon swore she had Diamond's On The Soles of her Shoes.
Elvis swore they were Blue Suede Shoes.
Dylan swore off shoes altogether in favour of Boots of Spanish Leather.
Stompin' Tom's went to the The Gum Boot Cloggeroo
Where I'm sure Rindercella slopped her dripper
And put on her High-Heeled Sneakers.

Shoes, Glorious Shoes...
Bring yours and sing yours. A shoe by any other name would smell....

Format: Open mike unplugged. Cost: free will donation

And... Be Kind To Your Web-Footed Friends for a duck may be...
...somebody's sole mate.

Yours in folk,
