Murcof The Hare and Hounds in Kings Heath is a great venue:  I sound surprised because it has been a while since I ventured this far from my Audnam cottage and the last time I walked by, it looked rather shabby.  It had a good history of supporting local talent (I should know, I played there myself in 1990), but all to often lost out to the Jug Of Ale up the road in Moseley, with national tours (a sad loss now it has gone).  But what a turnaround the Hare and Hounds has had; it now boasts music and comedy almost every night of the week in one or both of their upstairs rooms.  Tonight is no exception and both rooms are full to bursting, when many other venues are struggling.  What is their secret?
