Subject: RE: The current state of folk music in UK
In the club my good lady and I started in 1980 we had a guest EVERY night.
The first five floor singers got in free, everybody else paid.
Some nights even I, as organiser, didn't sing providing I could rely on the first singer to set the "right" mood.
It was a VERY successful club. One night the landlord of the pub tried to ask me to pay for the upstairs room (which was never used)
I said I would move the cub elsewhere ........... within a month he has put a small bar in there.
