I'm clinging to the under-30 part of my life for the next few days, and I LOVE folk clubs!!! Mind you after a good show, I'm usually the first one heading fer the pub! But I can't get enough... Like I'd ever get to see Garnet Rogers play a pub, or Stepehn Fearing, or James Keelaghan... Baaah! They've served their time and risen above... And more's the power to 'em!!! Most of the folks that I've talked to that have made the jump from pub/bar gigs to folk clubs, coffee houses and concert halls wouldn't go back to the pub/bar circut for love nore money!
The couple of times I've been lucky enough to play folk clubs, I've loved it... no smoke to contend with... no drunks banging tables out of tempo... Requests for songs that I love to play as opposed to Drunken Sailor/Wild Rover crap... Folk Clubs rock!!!!

Well, maybe not rock, but they folk around really well on a good night! LOL!!!

It boils down to what ever blows yer hair back, eh!
