Market Rasen Folk Club may be a very lively club but it is a folk club not a singaround or a session - it sounds as though all the 'spots' are pre-booked and so anyone turning up as a 'floor singer' wouldn't be offered the chance to sing. As an unaccompaned and perhaps worse female singer I have often thought about going to a folk club carrying an empty guitar case.

Sessions are OK for me if you have a mix of music and song but this doesn't happen at many sessions, most of them the muscians 'take over' and it's very difficult as a singer to get a look in!!

Singarounds can be formal or not I think it depends on the room and the number of people as to how they should be run or left to run themselves.
