" answer to your question about an open mic "pop" venue,I have no idea, try it you might be surprised."
I doubt it somehow - Joe heaney once tried it at a Clancy Brothers concert and would have been booed off the stage had not the Clancys had the good grace to stop it happening
Give us a break Derrick - you know damn well what would happen as well as I do.
Ind know - I don't necessarily mean the top ten hits - I mean any open mike club used to pop music of any sort.
You are bein as dishonest as Muskie and his merrie men when you talk about unworthy - would you consider a Frank Sinatra number to be "unworthy" of a concert of operatic arias - or just inappropriate?
You are the ones putting values on this argument - I'm happy to live and let live as long as somebody doesn't try and sell me something its not.
I didn't say that all pop music was shite Spleen - I said it was disposable - that's how the pop industry works.
I was comparing the stayability of folk song to the mayfly length existence of your average pop number.
You fellers can sure dish it out, but you seem to have trouble taking it
