Yes same here. Youngish colleague (early 30s) said she listens to Liza Carthy to beat work stress. I said "how about dropping into local folk club this Thursday." She said" Ohhh dunno. Not into the beardie weirdies." I said, "It's not like that. All kinds of stuff, singers, musos, singer/songwriters, music hall, american folk, blues, even some rock, real mixed bag."

She said "My partner likes the ahem more traditional stuff." I said, "We got that too. And as it is in upstairs function room, you can sit downstairs in pub proper and then poke you head in if you hear something you like, come in sit for a spell or not." Very loose and welcoming group, half and half participant/spectator."

She said "I dunno. We'll see."
