As someone who's never been to Dartford Folk Club (not that I've deliberately avoided it - I just haven't managed to get there) I can't comment directly on what goes on there. However, as someone who would like to go there at some stage and who would like a floor spot when I do, I'm rather concerned that a significant number of contributors to this thread who have been there seem to feel that floor singers are not made to feel particularly welcome, and at least one contributor seems to feel that this is not such a bad thing!

I frequently go to other folk clubs in the area and both my songs and I have always been warmly welcomed. Am I likely to be disappointed/disenchanted if I go to Dartford F.C.? Should I just suck it and see and form my own opinions?
