This would be perfect to run out to. There was a section at the top of the forum where you can ask Gerry the SLO. I asked for white stripes to be replaced but obviously due to COVID it didn’t make any difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abraham Romanovich Posted August 12, 2020 Report Share Posted August 12, 2020 Bristol is a unique and creative city, we should not follow the herd. The club should encourage this by making playing music related to the area and that song by the Dreadnoughts is excellent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I contacted them on Twitter to see why they’d done the song in the first place seeing as they are from Canada. They replied and said they always get a great welcome in Bristol and they love the people and the cider, so Bristol is almost ‘home’ to them. I just love how ‘Drink Up Thy Zider” is incorporated into the middle of the song! What do you mean by a ‘special version’ for AG? I’d be happy to contact them again as I’m sure they’d like that idea!

Here’s another of their ditties - “West Country Man” - all about cider!
