It is a perfect place and a lovely village. It has a bar and is a lovely cosy room. I am sure you will all like it. The people there are very enthusiastic :-)
There is a small car park for about 8 and parking is allowed along the lanes providing nobody blocks off anybodys driveway. So it is treat the neighbours with respect. As if you didn't already :-)

It is carry on as usual (every other Friday). Nothing changed really just a new venue.

I will be updating my website over the weekend to reflect the new venue. I have problems trying to update the map on the website so please realise it shows where the old venue is.

Many thanks for all the support and encouragment to persevere and not let the club fold.

Is Walesby the place with the abandoned church on top of the hill? I slept there one moonlit night propped up in the porch whilst walking from Lincoln to me house. I don't think I have never been so bloody terrified.

I took this photo whilst CAA type-testing my newly-restored R101.

It is a lovely, lonely place. This hilltop is where the village of Walesby once crowded around the church. The vicar - I forget his name - no - it has come back - Thomas Biltcliffe - was recorded as saying "fuck this for a game of soldiers - I'm off" and established a new settlement in the valley below. The hilltop buildings were robbed of their stone, leaving nothing but the medieval street pattern that is still visible today. The church holds one service a year and its position on the Viking Way (Barton sans Hyphens to Oakham) has given credence to its previous reputation as the ramblers' church. There are naive stained glass depictions of healthy outdoor pursuits in the 1940s stained glass windows in the nave. The porch gained an "uncomfortable" rating in the July 1995 edition of Vagrancy Today magazine.

The bar will be open - I paid £1.60 for a bitter shandy - driving and all that.
They have a real ale on and a lager and a reasonably good array of bottled drinks.
Very friendly committee and people there. They are willing to provide their PA system when needed and get the lighting how we want it.
Trust me folks, its gonna be good there.

Yes that is the church you are talking about, so no reason for saying you coudn't find it when your spot comes around :-)

Got up this morning and thought i would put my thoughts into a sort of poem. Never done this before.


The Market Rasen Folk Club Blues

One day I had a dream
To start a folk club I did beam
I went along to the social club
Who said luvely jubbly, just the job

So we got started back in March
With much hard work and the occasional fart
The singers got quickly to their task
Much more from them I couldn't ask

It became apparent very soon
These artists sang a lovely tune
People came from near and far
As the club pulled in the money over the bar

Everybody seemed very happy
Until this little chappy
Who rose up from the committee
And said hang on here we want a bigger fee

Now the organiser said get stuffed
The committee they were not chuffed
They gave our Les a red card
Which he thought was rather hard

These little scheming money makers
With brains no bigger than a shred of paper
Would not back down on the price
And thought our Les was in a vice

But with sleeves rolled up and a big determination
Our Les set about finding a new location
This proved very difficult and hard to find
It was becoming such a bind

Then all of a sudden when out of the blue
He found a village hall that would do
The people there are very nice
They have a bar with drinks at an affordable price

This place is called Walesby Village Hall
Where a big welcome will be there for all
So come on down you have a choice
To come and sing with good cheer and voice

So here's a warning to all those money makers
Who want to screw the folk club scene shakers
If you can't see the business sense and get smart
Stick your business up your arse

Cheers
Les

Poetic licence, there for the taking,
Whether of ours or others making.
Everyone is able to make a rhyme,
If they would only take the time.

This next work is dedicated to Les for his tireless devotion to duty:-

I know an old git called Worral,
Whose club closed so he was in sorrow.
But he got off his bum,
Cos he aint so dumb,
And found a new club on the morrow.

His friends said Oh Les Well done,
We're going to have so much fun.
It will all work out,
There is never a doubt,
If there was I'd buy you a gun.

You don't have to throw a dice,
To check if Walesby is nice.
We know it will be,
and will come and see,
But please don't double the price!

Historical refewrence in the last line. Please forgive me Les. Be Blessed.

Having said that, I will let him off, because he was very interesting and sang so well. Not easy when you know you are live on radio.

So a big well done John. What colour are your pants now LOL

Sorry GS, wanted to do Stan Rogers because he's my favourite, Jack Hudson because he's too bloody good to be ignored the way he is, and a Trad song, so it had to be Annachie Gordon. Lay Down Your Weary Tune is on the set-list for Friday night, never fear!

Thanks for the compliment, much appreciated.

Special thanks to Strollin' Johnny for being such a good MC.

Parking is a bit of a problem, but so long as people park sensibly along the lanes and don't block off peoples drives and don't park on the grass verges, then everything should be fine.

I will leave the rest of the mudcatters who attended to reviewing the evening.

So finally many thanks to everybody that attended both artists and listeners. It's team work. :-)

And now...the next morning...more time to spend....so:-
Strollin' Johnny...you did a great job with the introductions last night..that in itself would have been enough for some but....You really were the star of last nights show. The line up was quite impressive too. John Foreman(hope that's the right name) followed the intro and first few songs by John B with very much his own style of Folk performance. Ernie and Jane played and sung together which was certainly a new one on me...Ernies guitaring and Janes lovely silky voice made for excellent listening. Simon Johnson, who I personally have not had the pleasure of hearing before, gave a polished professional performance(and had one of the songs he wrote some time ago sung by John B). Da-Capo were excellent and execute those Steeleye Span songs so well. Nice too to hear a-capella. Rosie and Lucy Coggle, mesmerised us with their music..we will be seeing more of them no doubt. Don't know the name of the last man who played but he also was excellent. Hope I haven't missed anyone.
Strollin Johnny was as usual impressive, carrying on his talent and professional approach from his Wednesday..Radio Lincolnshire appearance....John has a perfect face for Radio...sorry! only joking John.
The night was such a success...organisation first class...music excellent...staff at the Hall excellent...beer good....what more can we ask for....Yes..you got it...Les the master organiser did not put the prices of admission up...What a man!!!! Well done Les.
Best wishes.

That was Roger Beard who was excellent and did justice to rounding an excellent evening off.

Spot on review there GS. Many thanks for that.

Now let me think. You would pay at least a tenner for such quality music.
Calculator out 60 x £10 = £600. mmmm enough to go on holiday with.

Na don't worry folks, I will still keep it at £2 entrance.

All money made goes back in the pot for Main Guest artists appearing in the future at MRFC. Such as Bob Fox, John Breeze, CARA, George Papavgeris, John Conolly, Jack Hudson, Mary Humphries and Anahata, Vin Garbutt.

Watch this space for more artists still to be booked :-)

Best wishes. Mike.

Ah the Lady with the lovely voice, Welcome on board Lizabeth. Have to watch me P & Q's now :-)

Guitarzan (our Ernie) and Jane graced the stage under severe pressure to keep the quality going and they did.

I reckon you have got the bug again well and truly :-) (the singing one). More new songs - is there no end to your wealth of songs.

August the 13th will continue the high quality set last night,

With a couple of blues singers Chris Wright and Steve Newton

Plus a very talented lady called Lesley Curtis (not ot be missed)

Plus the wonderful Lucy Wright (no relation to Chris Wright - blimey these Wrights breed like rabbits :-)) and Paul Young

Plus the excellent Terry and Gwenda Cater who introduced Lucy and Paul to the folk world and last but not least Ian Enright who has taken control of the new Lincoln Folk Club and is also a very good singer.

Well I know who you are Lizabeth, and your lovely voice is well worth recording for posterity. You can duet with me anytime! LOL!
And don't doubt your own ability on the guitar - your solo work has impressed everyone who's heard you. Good to see and hear you again last night (and Ernie too).

It was a real treat to have the double spot last night, in a fantastic (if slightly overheated - is their electricity connected to next-door's supply? LOL) venue, and to have the opportunity to MC such a talented line-up. Rosie and Lucie Coggle were a delight (loved the pink ties!), and Simon Johnson - well what can I say? Roger Beard was excellent finishing the evening off, apologies for the short set Roger, hope we'll have the full monty soon (no, no you daft buggers, not THAT full monty!).

Thanks to everyone who came, and to Villan for taking the plunge with the new venue.

Cheers,
Johnny :0)

Kind of hoped you would have asked before John ! Ah well life's strange meanderings!! You were of course the master of ballads last eve and no exageration - a really good format for the evening as well; I liked the way you split your performance between the two .. You didn't sing Dark Eyed Molly and I think I've drawn to your attention how greatly loved it is - next time please! XX must away the burgers are burning brightly o'er the lea!

Lizabeth - CDs follow as a consequence of....

- having enough material to make one
- wanting to make a demo to help get gigs
- having people ask you if you've got a CD
- playing almost any gigs at all. (because that's where you're going to sell them, realistically, and they make a big difference to your income from a gig)
- finding an affordable way of recording one.

It doesn't take long before you need to get into recording!

Hope that helps!
Anahata

Hey Lizbeth, sorry about not including 'Dark-Eyed Molly', I had ir on the set-list but Simon asked me to do one of his songs (he's only ever heard one of his done by someone else once before), so I dropped it for 'Who Will Be My Nightingale'. I promise to do it next time I see you - nudge me gently and I'll happily oblige, it's one of my favourite Archie Fisher songs.

I reckon its time that a new duo was formed for MRFC.

Strollin' Johnny and Lizabeth :-) As a duo you would be travelling the world making a fortune. Maybe we could call you Blank Kitchen.

I know you wasn't half cut Lizabeth, but little ole redeye reared its ugly head when the photo was taken.

Jane, people who are into Folk music are rarely sad people. We are a world apart from those who stay at home every night wondering why there is never anything to do in their area....the truth is generally..they never look for things to do...or if it stares them in the face they don't see it.
Folk music is on the up at the moment and from experience, the people who attend Folk Clubs are fairly well balanced people with a love of music.
Your voice is worthy of attention and I feel that you should do whatever it takes to use it for the good of all of us and for your own good....CD's perhaps in the near future.
Best wishes, Mike.
