Louth folk club is every 2nd and 4th tuesday of the month, which can be a bit tricky in a 5 week month(two week break). It welcomes new performers and encourages you to improve with advice and tips coming from anyone you would care to ask. The encouragement and advice I received was fantastic, but saying that, Gainsborough is also of the same ilk. A wonderful club to visit and play, where the effort taken to get up and do something is appreciated as much as the people who come along on a guest night and perform for a fee. To be honest I like Market Rasen(Faldingworth) Club because I am able to sit relax and listen to some fantastic talent and diversity of music and instruments. Like anything, all clubs have their plus and minus. It must take a lot of effort to organise any of the above events and it is greatly appreciated by the people in the audience!!!
