Blimey, what a mess there is after Snail has been throwing his toys all over the Sussex countryside. Can someone smack his bottom and give him something to caterwaul about?

There are a number of people doing stuff throughout this land with trad music in a way that attracts people (especially younger ones) who wouldn't be seen dead in an old-style "f*lk club" after prior horrendous experience and hostility. "Ewan" (and his ilk) who are setting up alternative projects and venues can rely on my support.

And I'd thank the Snail to try taking his own advice to actually read posts before replying. But he won't. It would ruin the old, old, (imaginary) story of his perpetual whinge.
