This thread fascinates me. I can only hope it is some kind of joke gone too far. I moved back to London this year after several years away and one of the first folk clubs I went to featured this "band" in a floor spot. It's been a long time since I heard anything so awful. I never went back to that club and I never will. Surely people don't really book this duo as a serious band, but more as some sort of tastless in-joke comedy act that isn't really all that funny? I really don't understand it at all. Perhaps they are meant to make beginning and weak performers feel more confident (since nothing could possibly be WORSE than their combination of poor taste and lack of musicality)? I remain boggled, but I keep this thread around-- it helps me plan where NOT to go.
