coriander What songs are banned in your folk club? (54* d) What songs are banned in your folk club? 11 Dec 99


Just for fun...... Down here in deepest Sussex it seems that many of the Folk Clubs (although regrettably not the one I usually attend) have a ban on singing "The Wild Rover" which alledgedly carries a fine on the grounds that the song is over-performed and old hat etc. I have a parody version for these occassions - which I have to admit I have yet to put to the test to see whether I get fined. What other songs are frowned upon in the more serious gatherings? Perhaps we could have a list of "Songs to avoid and where not to sing them"! corinna
