A healthy folk club scene has to feature a guarantee of hearing folk songs at clubs

At the majority of folk clubs I can guarantee that the majority of songs that you hear will meet with your approval. I have put my money where my mouth is and I am sure a number of others will do the same. You have misinterpreted what a number of people have said, including me. I will try to make my argument quite clear.

The vast majority of clubs and other venues (that showcase folk music) are promoting music that is more than acceptable to the vast majority of folk music fans.

Feel free to disagree but, as yet, you have not come up with any proof of your 'anything goes' theory.
