Tommorow night in Ruffec dept.16   live music and animation and food too!   6pm till midnight.

lol!! us market people do not 'take the rest of the month of'   I wish!!!! You'll find most traders will travel around to various monthly markets and will probably have a regular pitch at a few weekly ones too! I don't know the markets in your region, but there is a huge market at Roulliac the 27th of the month. As for bijoux, it depends what you're looking for, most markets seem to sell the cheap baubly stuff. If you're looking for something special, you may be better with craft / Artisanart markets. Just keep looking in your local papers for dates. Or try the Islands July / August. There are fab markets in almost all the towns every morning. St Denis and Domino are particularly lovely morning markets. there's a big one in Ars (no pun intended!!!)   happy shopping!

now the poor guitarist is in hospital. The last remaining Monkey will play a solo set. Still worth going to see as he's fab!    

lol!! they're quite chilled in a rocky way, they do a fab cover of a Bill Withers track - but I can't remember the name of it. It's possibly an accoustic set this friday as the Bassist is manacled to a hospital bed and he dosen't think he'll be allowed out to play!!!!  

The funky monkeys play a mixture of Funk and rock. Very cool! NOT Irish music, I probably should have started a new thread[:$]
