Thread Name: Wakefield Folk Club , Change of Venue
Subject: RE: Wakefield Folk Club , Change of Venue
It was good to see so many people at the session yesterday . I am almost afraid to refer to it as a SESSION because that seems to be more associated with musicians rather than the mix of voices and instruments which both feature at Fernandes and such is its appeal ! I am sure we have all been to folk venues where there is sometimes conflict between voices and instruments but this has never been the case here...thank goodness ! Long may that continue . Our next scheduled meeting on 5th. July coincides with Cleckheaton Festival so numbers may well be depleted .However, I know some folk will still manage to get there ! Brian and I are hosting the singaround at Cleckheaton on Saturday 5th in the WHICKHAMS pub from 12 to 4 . Tom McDonald then continues to 6 p.m so please come along and join us at this excellent festival . Contrary to reports this month in some folk magazines , the BLACK HORSE in Whitby is NOT under new management and music in this excellent venue is still safe with the present inumbent sue... great atmosphere, music and real ale !
