Where can floor singers still go - and get in free - to the Folk Club?

It's important to know because quite few clubs say "Floor singers welcome" but still charge singers full admission - perhaps (and only perhaps) a refund if you sing.

Obviously bar sessions don't need to be mentioned here but a 'free entry" singaround club in a seperate function room counts as some singarounds clubs or club nights charge - everybody!!

So where can we singers go and know know we won't be charged to get in?

Let's kick off with Brighton & Hove City - South Coast of Engaland.

Tuesdays - every week - Round Georges pub (Club Room Downstairs), Sutherland Road, Kemptown, Brighton. 8.30pm onwards. Club type: Singaround with occasional guests.

Wednesdays - every week - Crown and Anchor pub, Preston village (main A23 road). Clubroom at back of pub, by car park. 8.30pm onwards. Club type Singaround - slight traditional bias but all styles nevertheless welcome.

Sundays - every week - venue C&A pub as above. Singer -songwriters particularly wecome on Sundays.

There are other folk sessions in the city which I'll leave for the organisers to submit. The only ones I have been to are te above so only have second hand info.

So... the free entry clubs (for singers) in your area? Look forward to reading about them below!
