My first folk club experience was at the Grimsby folk song club as run by John, Bill Meek etc. As a young lad of 18 (in 1964 and on to 1969) they gave me a taste of every kind of folk music. This was pre Fiddler's Green but john had composed the Hewitt's Ale song a number on which I am still word perfect for some strange reason.

A great club where, as guests, I saw so many stalwarts of then scene and also loads of up and coming faces, many of whom are still around.

Hope the tour goes well
