...This will run and run but will probably be taken too seriously then break out into warfare around post 20 (Les In Chorlton)

Well, that's 50 odd posts so far and still a good natured thread,are folkies starting to mellow or what?

I'm sure I followed a similar thread on the Cat a few years ago, or was that about what instruments one can or cannot play in a F/C, or which tunes are 'out of favour', or, heaven forbid that I should strum or flat pick a guitar when I should be finger picking.

Maybe we should compile a list of songs that CAN be sung in any folk club without SOMEONE complaining! OK, I know that's too difficult ;)

Cockles and Mussels? I've not heard that one since I was a school kid :)
