The Derby Heritage Traditional Music Club.

http://members.aol.com/BrewTownFolkClub/derbyt.html

Not formally no smoking but little in evidence except that from the roaring log fire. Hosted by Keith Kendrick ( http://www.keithkendrick.co.uk/ ) with only occasional guests but very friendly. Each monthly meeting has a theme e.g. Murder & Mayhem - Songs of Crime & Social Disarry next week though many drift from the subject. Held in the candle-lit brick vaults of the Old Derby Gaol with drinks in pottery mugs sporting nooses and the walls displaying descriptions of heinous crimes of the past. Difficult to find but this points to the spot http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=434580&y=336505&z=3&sv=434500,336500&st=4&ar=Y&mapp=newmap.srf&searchp=newsearch.srf&dn=789

Songs, accompanied and un-accompanied, tunes, stories, monologues and all for £3.50
