and don't forget about NY Pinewoods member discounts to our Folk Off Broadway series and house concerts! These concerts promote sometimes well known musicians just "passing through" the area for one night or some lesser known fine performers in an intimate setting!! Yes, up close and personal. Like the April 6 Folk off Broadway concert of The NexTradition -- deep roots, dangerous harmonies. that on is at Brooklyn Polytechnic University (college?) at 8pm.

also the club sponsors all kinds of get-togethers on a regular basis -open mikes, sacred harp and gospel, old timey, etc. just check out the newsletter for details.

you can also check out the club's website at
