Subject: RE: Folk club do not die- they are killed
Well said, Pigstrings.

Folk clubs are for life, not just for Christmas!

If you are serious about providing music for people to enjoy, you have to be willing to put in a good deal of work and commitment. You have to take the rough with the smooth and take disappointment in your stride!

Just recently we had only two singers at our local do. We could have moaned and groaned and despaired, but we sang to each other instead. Next week was great.

You cannot predict. You do the best you can. You do your bit to keep the music alive.

It's my belief that clubs, like plants, die if you don't keep them watered!

Best wishes,

Peter
