>>Call the venue what you like except a 'f*lk cl*b'. They've had their day, their purpose has long since been served, they're bad old news. Get a decent venue. Run it professionally. Put on good music. Just don't tell your punters it's 'f*lk' till after they've realised they like it<<

Now there I have to agree. We changed the name of Market Rasen Folk Club to Faldingworth Live and we hope that the locals will decide to turn up in bigger numbers. :-)

Seemingly, if the word Folk was mentioned to the villagers, it was a big turn off. So we will have to see what happens now.

Incidentally Falidingworth Live is concert style and I think that it complements other clubs who are singaround such as Gainsborough Folk Club.
