Thread Name: Remember The Folkway Coffeehouse?
Subject: RE: Remember The Folkway Coffeehouse?
I got there at the very end of it's last incarnation in the 90's, volunteered doing what little sound needed doing. I really felt deprived, never having experienced it during it's heyday. I both loved and hated hearing about what I had missed. I never got to know anyone there very well, and moved before it's last death knell. I was kind of frustrated, too, because although the concerts I heard were reasonably well-attended, people kept saying there wasn't enough interest to keep it going. What DID happen?
And did you know the Old Vienna in Northboro (Southboro, east, west????) Massachusetts? Is it still going? Did sound there too, most memorable was Ritchie Havens - wow.
