Good work Trish, here's your picture of the Pretty Things

I hosted it on flickr.com:Do you have a confirmed date for this gig yet? I bet you wrote it in your diary, or maybe it's on the back of the photo? Was it 1967?...

Everyone is gorgeous in Folkestone

I don't see the point in paying to go to a place like that, now that everything is open later. I reckon Chambers is your best bet, though it depends on what night it is, what DJ's are there etc. Pipers is proper rough and ready, and I suppose Indigo ...

New bar at Pipers

ALSO, Pipers has had another refit, and at least a part of it is opening as if it was a new bar, called "The Pub". It will be a sports type bar, with big screens.

Impressions of Tontine Street, a first visit to a new bar

Heard there was a new bar in town, Impressions, and so there is, it's at 33 Tontine Street, opposite Pipers, where a curry house used to be. It is a bar bistro, and looks like it's open daytimes too, though we didn't go in until the evening. Got ther...

Cream 1967

Cream never played Tofts they indeed played Micks Flamenco club situated in Tontine Street. The place is now a club called Pipers and is still trading as such today.

A good word about Folkestone!

Simon Schama has a good word about Folkestone in The Guardian! Well kind of:Howard was bouncily affable as he trotted Folkestone high street, a place inexplicably bereft of the roaming hordes of ruffians and mendicant asylum seekers he says infest Ne...
