Steve Hunt fRoots magazine and folk clubs (317* d) RE: fRoots magazine and folk clubs 15 Jul 10

Vic makes a good point about relative perceptions of youth. When I go to Bodmin Folk Club, I am usually the youngest person in the room (I'm 48), but when I was in the Rif Mountain Refuge at Leigh Festival a few weeks ago, I was almost certainly the oldest. When the likes of Vic Legg and Lar Cann actually started the Bodmin Club, they were younger than either!
Most of my friends on the folk scene are either 10 + years older than me or 10 + years younger. I started regularly attending folk clubs 25 or more years ago as a result of reading the first news stand issue of Folk Roots (as it then was). The magazine was essential to me then, and still is now.
