Thread Name: Enrage Your Audience Stories?
Subject: RE: Enrage Your Audience Stories?
There's a whole bunch of stuff you can't really do in public nowadays - I cringe to admit that having got outside a quantity of Abbot Ale I once launched into "Well I never seen the like since I been born ...... " only to spot a rather large West Indian chap at the bar. Discretion demanded a coughing fit .....

Similar issues surround "Thuthie", beloved by Cosmotheka afficionadoes (another one I sang in the wrong company & I'm still plucking up the courage to say sorry) and that nice song about Hecate & Inanna - try it at a Church Social .... or in our case in the vestry ....

Is there a serious issue here? Do we do folk songs balls & all or do we temper them to PC sensibility?
