my point was not having a go at all performers,what gets me is there are some damm good players around these venues but get pushed back so the regulars can repeat the same stuff again and again,a while back at change of horses a little trio did a couple of great footapping songs and that was all they were allowed to make way for the "big boys" so to speak with their usual dreary repetetive stuff,one bragging about all the gigs he has done,dunno if it were true as he was so full of himself and.....boring!Im not a miserable old git (i do a good impression I told!)but bring back the good old days of folk and cheerfull upbeat songs,not repetetive sloggers,thats it had my two pennarth!
