Folk music is really hard work when you have spent the last 35 years of your life organising folk concerts & folk club, festivals etc,. there is no way that it can be described "as fun" it has been a long hard hawl. There are moments when you feel "we did that, it was worth doing" but it is bloody hard work. If you believe in the music, then it is worth doing, & we do, but when you have no talent so you spend a weekend providing venues that you can't go into, it's hell.
There are so many things that go on "behind the scenes" that make an organisers life hell, while, hopefully all around your are happy.
