Very surprising. But one possible reason might be the haste in which the club opened i.e the pub had invited anyone interested to start a folk night. I was semi interested myself. But on asking around the opinion was it hadn't been doing too well recently, and was a bit too far away for me. And within a few days I saw that Sunjay had agreed to run it and was advertising Julie as it's opening night. The Newhampton a club in Wolverhampton the only near club in the area has had real problems selling tickets in recent months, as have booking clubs in general. I did fear a big name guest so soon (within a week)in an area badly hit by Government cuts might be risky. Mightn have been a good idea to have had a couple of Singers nights or local guests night first to get it established. And that is planned for it's next night so let's hope it gets much more support. Sunjay is a very talented and worth going to see alone. I think from it's Facebook page quite a few have already said they plan to be there. Good luck Sunjay, keep it going
P.S might be woth saying, there are at least two Tues night open mic clubs in Stourbridge already
