Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: Splott Man Date: 10 Aug 11 - 03:59 AM Can I clarify (without prejudice) for those looking in from afar. Newport Folk Club has indeed moved as stated. However, some regulars chose not to move with the club and have continued in the old venue as the Lyceum Folk Club . Both clubs are thriving. Splott Man |
Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: Paul Reade Date: 09 Aug 11 - 02:51 PM I always enjoyed Newport FC when I visited South Wales for my work. Haven't been for some time as I've changed my job (and it's a bit of a trek from Lncashire!), so I'd just like to wish you all good luck in your new home. |
Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: GUEST,999 Date: 09 Aug 11 - 03:09 AM You believe you were told, or you were told? |
Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: Mr Red Date: 08 Aug 11 - 11:45 AM I believe (I was told) that there is a folk evening of some sort at the original venue, same night. The clientele split. |
Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: GUEST,999 Date: 07 Aug 11 - 07:49 PM Wow. Thank you, Nigel. |
Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: Nigel Parsons Date: 07 Aug 11 - 07:42 PM Thank you. I at first thought USA where there are over 50 towns or cities named Newport. I appreciate the clarification. That would then be the Newport mentioned in the poem by Idris Davis, later set to music by Seeger? There's also several in the UK. Newport Pembrokeshire Newport Isle of Wight Newport Shropshire Newport Essex Newport Gloucestershire Newport Monmouth/Gwent (this is the one they mean!) And yes, Newport Mon. is the one meant in "Bells of Rhymney" Cheers Nigel |
Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: GUEST,AEOLA Date: 07 Aug 11 - 03:58 PM Can confirm a great venue! |
Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: Newport Boy Date: 07 Aug 11 - 03:55 PM That's the Newport - the leading one, as far as I am concerned. My mother taught at High Cross School for many years. Phil |

Subject: RE: Newport Folk Club From: My guru always said Date: 07 Aug 11 - 03:00 PM Indeed Bruce! In fact Newport in South Wales, UK. And a very fine club it is too... Newport Folk Club |

Subject: Newport Folk Club From: GUEST,Ann P Date: 07 Aug 11 - 01:22 PM Just in case there is anyone who doesn't know, Newport Folk Club moved to new premises in March. We are now at the Fugitives Athletic Club at High Cross in Newport just off junction 27 of the M4 and the new place is great. It has its own parking and it's on the level (no stairs to climb) and the room is bigger and lighter. It operates every Thursday come rain or shine. |
