Subject: RE: Songs no longer heard in uk folk clubs
Depends very much on the club, as you are an occasional visitor to the UK I don't think that you are really in a position to make pronouncements on the state of the clubs or the songs/music performed there.

In Manchester for example, albeit years ago, some clubs where predominantly tradional, some where predominantly contemporary. I would suggest the same could be said of Leeds, Birmingham, London etc etc

Several of the songs you suggested where not being performed are being performed and by posters on here.
