MEET THE
BAND & WORKSHOP with SLOW LORIS Saturday 28th June Leigh North Street School
2pm 'The Slow Loris is a shy creature, known to come out only at night and
then being extremely noisy. Members of the SLOW LORIS BAND are
certainly not shy and although often active at night, they can be seen
before midday in Leigh Library Gardens [11 am] and later in North Street
School. Come along and meet the band, hear about their experiences, and join in
with a few tunes and songs. And we won’t mention the noise.' from Leigh Folk
Festival Programme notes. |
