All entertainment is changing, not just folk.

Our local club struggles to get many in, and forking out for a guest would be a bad idea at present, so singarounds are, like most places, the most effective way of keeping people interested.

When I was a teenager, everybody in my class would know what was No.1 in the charts. Now, computer games are the norm. World of Warcraft is today's Beatles it would seem. So no wonder all other aspects of entertainment are either changing or, as often as not, being perceived to be changing.

Some of this is natural evolution. Pubs are disappearing at a fast rate of knots and the more I think about it, the more I would be less inclined to enjoy a singaround where there isn't a bar. It isn't alcohol addiction, (normally driving anyway) just my take on the whole experience.

Methinks some of the reasoning on this thread is borne of nostalgia?
