Flanagans Apple, Rosie O Gradys, Kitty O Sheas, The Liffy, O Neills and many more Liverpool theme pubs were booking live bands 7(drunken) nights a week, with 2 to 3 bands in each venue at weekends, for well over ten years. Playing Dubliners,Clancys,Saw Doctors, Waterboys,Pogues,to packed houses, most of it gone now " flavour of the decade?" The Everyman Folk Club is the only one in Liverpool city centre average attendance about thirty, doesn't seem to have had much impact Btw Banjiman "most people" would that be the same half dozen who criticise most of Jim Carrolls posts?
