I didn't know the Malt Loaf had that amount of music. It used to have acts on all week for events such as the Conwy Festival but other than that, it just had the Folk Club on a Monday night. There may have been changes but the Conwy club was a formal folk club having a guest aritist approximately 1 in 4 weeks and singer's nights the rest of the time.

The Tap and Spile in Bangor used to have a Welsh session on a Monday night but again that may have changed. The only venue in North Wales I can be certain of is the Friday night mostly Irish session which takes place in the Nelson.

I was in the Nelson a couple of weeks ago for an excellent weekend of music with people from Ireland, Holland, London, Manchester, Leeds, etc as well as the regulars. Over the whole weekend, I only met up with one of the Conwy/Llandudno area player and didn't get to find out about what was going on round that area.
