There are a lot of musicians who love to play/sing but couldn't give a rat's arse about getting involved in organisation.

There are a lot of non-musicians who enjoy taking on the responsibilities of organisation.

There are a lot of musicians who enjoy playing/singing and like to be involved in organisation.

Isn't variety the spice of life?

I dispute the description of one-man operations as a 'club'. The essential ingredient of a club (at least here in the UK) is that it's not run by one person, but is properly founded with a Constitution, a Chairman, a secretary, a committee and members. A one-man operation is merely a venue. Both formats can, and do, run very happily and successfuly, Gainsborough and Market Rasen being prime examples of each kind.

If Fiddlestix's 'club' is truly a club as described above, it's a very simple matter to remove the offending individuals by using the democratic tool of voting them out of office at the AGM. If it's a one-man-band, tough shit - you're either stuck with it or (Gosh! Here's a radical idea!) you go away and start your own.
