Ep'th Folk was again beset by misfortune on Monday when 8 of it's loyal supporters rang in to say they could'nt be
there for very good reasons.A phone call is always very helpful and appreciated.

Despite this about 20 got the meeting off to a great start with a number of notable local singers amongst the gathering crowd. The charge
of £1.00 on the door was quickly forgotten when the crowd found who
was taking it from them. Who else but your lovely Jane or JK to mudcatters.The sing around format seemed to prove popular and we
made 3 circuits of the room by the end of the night.

The standard of singing and playing was very high and
the music offered varied from traditional songs up to the swinging
60s. With a good crowd, chorus songs were sung lustily as in the
early days of Ep'th folk .

Song of the evening for me was the version of Archie Fishers
song Jock of Hazeldine sung by Dave, lead singer of Tin Bath
accompanied so effortlessly, or so it seemed by Christina on fiddle.

Next meeting is on Monday 21st. November at 8pm.
