Away from all the side tracking and silliness.

How would proscription work today, if at all? What would you proscribe? What would or could it do to help people enjoy music?

There have been a few side issues here. Most people who like their folk music are too young to have experienced the singers' club but many like myself have had people tell dark forbidding tales of this institution. (I have, when a keen teenager had MacColl tell me off for not being indigenous when doing a floor turn at one of their bookings and that alone was enough for me.)

So. Are people saying it was good, bad or indifferent? Two hundred posts up to yet of reminiscing but nothing about its legacy.
