Subject: RE: Folk Club Guest Nights - Who Needs 'em!!
Hi yo lot
I have been attending a local club run by one Villan.
is every fortnight on a friday and is basically a concert style night only £3 to get in.
For the money you get to see four hand picked local(ish bands who each do a 25 minute floorspot,and a main guest usualy someone doing th circuit who is a "Name£.
This leads to a full and entertaining evening witha great variety in style and types of music.
It is great.
There IS no a concet style Night occassionaly on a Saturday with a very good guest artiste and then a singaroung aftewaerds for those that want it
This also is great value for money and very entertaining.
The only reason I leave early from any event at the Market Raisen Folk Club,is if sometimes having shift to cover at midnight.
I suppose there are genuine reasons for some to leave early sometimes.
But I know it is noticed by the floorspot acts and is a bit mean to only stay long enough to play or watch your mates play innit?
Also tips on clearing room after drunken singaround put Tim the Twangler on last and tell him to do two or three at once romm empties as if by magic!
