The Shed

David Thomas' directions to Brawby "Brawby is a bend in the road. Drive north of York. Follow any road narrower than your vehicle's wheelbase. Arrive at the Middle of Nowhere and look around. You can't miss it. Think of all the desperate, lost journeys thru the night, fans trying to find the place: showtime approaching and passing inexorably, magnificently LOST. How rare, how privileged to find yourself actually HERE. The venue is the village hall. The village hall is the size of a garden shed with pretentions. Outside is coal fire smoke in the pitch black night, and, at the center of Great Nowhereness, unearthly quiet. Inside is a Unique Event waiting to happen.   I'd like to make the following points: 1. Fish & chips can only be found north of the Humber. 2. The Shed is the best venue in England."   (NB: The Shed is now based in Hovingham) More about David Thomas   The Shed's Special Projects "Weird and wonderful" Daily Telegraph: The Shed's Sprung and Simmer 2010 Tickets on sale now!
