Is storytelling welcome at your folk club? I know personally I want to hear music at a music thing and really don't have the patience to listen much to stories. I would tell your stories where people gather specifically to hear stories..perhaps library hours etc...and I bet you will get a wonderful resposne because that is what they went to actually hear. I think there is very little correlation between liking stories and liking music. I just practically twitch when someone tells long stories especially....I want to yell just give the story in writing and I will read it...but I am not an auditory learner and many people are...mg
