"You come across as rather bitter and twisted and patronising to folkies in general"
Really? Me, come across as bitter and twisted.....?
You come across as bombastic, which I'm sure you're not really.
Though your threat to crowd out the musicians session anyway suggests that you do like to get your own way.
What the hell was patronising "to folkies in general" about it? Or is that a rhetorical gesture?
"("Or will you (?) going to concerts later?")"
That was a typo, I missed out "be" and only saw it now. Replaced by your ironic "(?)"
And the simple answer to the question is that it is timed to be there over tea-time, when there are not usually any musicians there.
I'm off on me hols now, no more banter for a day or two.
BTW, until you mentioned it I had no clue who Max is. Why would I? Hi Max, thanks for Mudcat.
