I may well indeed Twag this evening, Bryan. Depends on my energy levels this evening after a thoroughly physical band night last night (ceilidh in my village hall). Got there at 5pm to get everything ready and got away around midnight. The guitar-playing Twagger, Mr. Chisholm, was still there when I left - I hope he's fitter than I am!

Big Al - the only reason I talk of the Lewes clubs "putting up" with me (which is partly tongue-in-cheek) is that the organisers and residents are rock-solid enthusiasts of traditional music in all its forms - but they're also broadminded enough to have dirty old boppers like me playing for them!

There's a folk club not a million miles from me in which, on open stage nights (i.e. no guest artistes), you won't hear one traditional song or tune. If I go there, which is rare these days, I make a deliberate point of playing or singing something from the tradition - just to be different!
