Once upon a time, we stood on the stairs at the Red Dear in Sheffield whilst a "Certain Person " did a SEVENTEEN minute song, almost long enough for an Acorn for to grow into a tree I have been to a few Singarounds where we have been passed over as we were not "known" to the M C who only got their mates to sing. Bradfield being by far the worst I have experienced in over 58 years as a Folkie. Others such as The Wail are models of Democracy The other Bete Noir is the person who stands by the door ,sees who is to sing next and muscles in next to them, goes out for 10 minutes and repeats the procedure. NOT when I am in charge , no Bloody chance
