Mo - The Cheshire CT vs UK is perhaps because you left the country selection as 'United States' or you typed it into the search box on top, in which case we just toss it at Google to see if the search terms can be geocoded as well as performing a text search on the site.

The site is for any acoustic session, Bluegrass, OT, Contra Dance, Irish.


PMB - Neither Shawn nor I were aware of folkmap.co.uk until about three months ago. We looked hard for a site like folkjam.org before we built it and found nothing like it. One big difference is that our coverage is as worldwide as Google's map interface. The second is that we take the repeat rules (3rd Sunday, etc) and figure out the dates and then make a calendar.

As for thesession.org I've used them for many years. My biggest gripe about the session listings there is organization. If you want to know where a session is happening or when, you have to dredge through a long list of sessions that are in the order in which they were submitted. I believe that somewhere in our link pages thesession.org and folkmap.co.uk are both listed. I'll double check.
