I am a student in preston trying to find a frequent session
The Jolly Angler is nice and near the train station so handy for me,
is this a good inclusive session?
are there any younger musicians that go there?
Irish trad every Thursday and Saturday evenings from just before 9pm until 12 or 1ish. The longest running and best session in Manchester. Good standard.
Great; looks like I should be able to pop along after my dinner on Thursday; probably be there after 9, so I'll squeeze myself into a corner somewhere. See you then. Gary.
A serious session with top rate musicians. Good music, good craic and good company. There not exactly keen to have you leave either!!!!

Had a great time!
I dropped in to the Jolly Angler a few weeks ago - great music. Friendly crowd too, very welcoming.

Really great session
Been there last Thursday - great music, great people, and one of the nicest landlords I've met. Very cosy place, too.

Jolly Angler
It starts around 9pm and usually finishes about 12.30pm. It can go on much longer on occasions. Hydes beer, yummy.

Update November 2011
Yes, there were a few months earlier this year when it was on/off. But now back as before. A dozen or so players last night...great music.
Saturday is still going strong, after so many years. The same mix of players, plus visitors from all over the place.
On both nights it can be quietish but more often you'll need to be there by 9pm for get a seat. Music carries on well after midnight.
