You're from McGregor? I assume you know Steve Van Schaik and Megan who run "The Courtyard" venue?

I also have another friend, and architect named Michael, who has fallen in love with McGregor and recently relocated there. Is the town small enough that you would know who I'm talking about? I've only been to McGregor once but I loved it!

Yes, I know Meg & Steve, but not Michael that I am aware of. We have had a huge influx of new people, many of whom we haven't met.

If you are in the village, drop by the market and say hi?

PS @zakludick here's another South African and, Capetonian (I think), for you!

Edit: doh! I just realised you know eacb other in RL!!

Hehehe, my most successful student. Look at him going off to go engage and interact with people on that list I made! Hehehe!

But observe also, how @fionasfavourites automatically connects people together! It is such an awesome habit and THAT brings a person to success on Hive!

Thank you both. You guys are really good examples!

Hi! I see @zakludick got there ahead of me... but as well as introducing me to HIVE, he's a great supporter of the music that @clairemobey and I are making, recording and performing live at the moment!

Great stuff. And some of the folk you mention in your post, I remember hearing at the Barleycorn...a million years ago!!

The Barleycorn is still going strong after all these years! My parents used to enjoy going before I was born, and then I used to be on the committee helping set up stage and finding the odd line-up for the evening when I was an MSc Student! They are now based at Villagers in Claremont! @Clairemobey and I did our second gig there, and the gig we've just posted about now is our third together. We will definitely be going back to Barleycorn and Bill Knight's Cottage Club, as well as some other venues that would suit us!

Wow! They were at the Riverclub when we used to go. More than 20 years ago. I shall check put your posts!

PS @Zakludick, one day @Clairemobey and I can try play in McGregor, at The Courtyard! We can put it on the list of goals!

That would be cool!

Super! I agree! That will be a roadtrip experience!

Great engagement and networking there @jasperdick, you are Hiving right!
