Subject: RE: Reasons to go to a folk club
Oh, I'm quite aware of the differences between jazz and folk sessions, Vic. I was just imagining the kind of impromptu musical collaborations you often get in a jazz setting - but in a folk setting. It's the difference between being a guest who gives a performance, and a guest who invites other performers to join in the performance.
I have seen it in folk clubs. The nearest you get to it is probably when a guest singer encourages the audience to "join in the chorus".
