Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: GUEST,Hugh Jampton Date: 17 May 04 - 11:39 AM Surely it is time that jOhn took a break from fretting about the Hull F.C., amitted his obvious DESIRE TO obSEE |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: GUEST,Hugh Jampton Date: 17 May 04 - 11:47 AM REPLAY Surely it is about time that jOhn stopped fretting about the Hull F.C., came to terms with his patently obvious desire to succeed at the game and went to enjoy a round of the Old Royal and Ancient. P.S. Nick, there is an enormous group of singers down here that will beat a path to your club and applaud everything if the session bitter is still £1.22 per pint!! |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: Nick Date: 17 May 04 - 03:19 PM The bitter is always £1.22 a pint - Sam Smiths pubs are always priced with the beer at happy hour prices (and it's real ale as well). People are always welcome to come - if those of you stuck in Hull who are on their way to Selby are short of something to do wednesday I'm sure you would be made very welcome. You can always PM if you want any info or to check what's going on. I would be interested in others views on the different/the best ways to organise singarounds so will be starting a new thread rather than continuing to take this one off topic. (By the way it's not MY club it's OUR club - I was guilty of grumbling about that earlier in the year and would hate to give the same impression) |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: GUEST,Jesus Martini Date: 20 May 04 - 11:19 AM Following up Nick's thread, we had 14 at the Farlington Folk club last night (beer still £1.22 a pint)and an excellent evening was had by all - but still no-one from Hull. What are you waiting for?! Jesus Martini |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: GUEST,Grubby Date: 03 Jun 04 - 11:50 PM Nick coming over to UK in September from Tasmania AUS and as a coincidence will be travelling around your area. I will make a point of visiting your club at Farlington. I run a club here in our home town and I can understand the problems discussed in this thread well. So it appears to be a world wide provlem doesn't it. we are really catering to a niche market and number are small in comparison to the big picture, but Iif you work at it and get the info out to the folkies they will turn up. It took us a while but it is working now. Regards Grubby Hobart Tasmania Mudcat member but using another PC at present |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: Rt Revd Sir jOhn from Hull Date: 07 Sep 04 - 12:37 AM ................REFRESH............ Hull Folk Club celebrated its 1st Birthday last Thursday, it was a brilliant night, with over 20 singers and musicians there, everybody [including me!] did at least 1 song/tune, we drank loads of ale and ate some cake! During the year we,ve been going, we have loads of top performers there, including Greg Stephens, Kate Barfield, Nahro Zagros, Rory McLeod, Jim Eldon, Henry ayrton, Bill Sables, Punch the Horse, Pat Cooksey, Linda Kelly, El Ted, David Oaklet, Cowfish, Martin the Whistler and loads of people like that, playing all sorts of folk type music including skiffle, traditional irish tunes, protest songs, ballads, Flamenco Tunes, Blues songs, Kurdish Fiddle Tunes etcetcetc. I'd like to thank everybody that has suppported us, especially them that came from far away [Greg, Kate and Rory etc], and especially them that have made the efoort to turn up every week, [Ted, Mick and Les etc]. Over the last weekend about 20 of us travelled to Nick_'s place at Far Lington for the weekend, it was brilliant, a full weekend of folk music of all types,by people of all ages everyone was made really welcome, its a brilliant pub, really well run, good ale at good prices, and I'd reccomend a visit to anyone [see link to pub website in Nicks post]. |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: alanabit Date: 07 Sep 04 - 02:06 AM Well done. Good luck for the coming years. Pat Cooksey came a long way too - he lives in Nürnberg! |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: JennyO Date: 07 Sep 04 - 11:47 AM Congrats jOhn! Glad it went so well. Keep up the good work. You'll be surprised how quickly the next few years go. I can hardly believe my folk club will be 7 years old in November - and it all started as a result of a course I was doing. I had to do a project, and the folk club was it - it's very rewarding, as I'm sure you are finding out. |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: GUEST,Mike, Halifax UK Date: 09 Sep 04 - 07:14 AM Interesting thread to read through, could someone précis what was going on there??! I've being playing in clubs and sessions for years and have enjoyed everything from three to a hundred and three in a club. I went to an 'open mic' in Hebden Bridge last night. It was almost alternative, but plenty of songs, the odd poem, double acts closely associated with 'folk' but light hearted and fantastic fun. It's loosely organised and there must have been about eighty in the room. Are we beginning to take it all to seriously?? |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: Paco Rabanne Date: 09 Sep 04 - 08:48 AM Fear not Mike of Halifax. This thread is tongue in cheek to say the least. |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: GUEST,Mike, Halifax UK Date: 10 Sep 04 - 05:25 AM Tee Hee. That's put a smile on my face and made my day, however my original question still stands.. Maybe a new thread "does the folk fraternity take it too seriously sometimes" ? |

Subject: RE: Is Hull Folk Club Rubbish? From: PoppaGator Date: 10 Sep 04 - 10:42 AM I think we've established by now that Hull Folk Club is not now, and never has been, rubbish... BUT: is it shite? |
