17 Sep 10 - 07:20 AM (#2988581) Subject: RE: New Folk Club - Duton Hill, Essex From: Leraud This was a really enjoyable evening. A fantastic venue and a good and enthusiastic crowd of ardent folkies who enjoyed the excellent Mary and Anahata, as well as floor singers and Korean bellydancing, which was superb. |

17 Sep 10 - 02:15 PM (#2988831) Subject: RE: New Folk Club - Duton Hill, Essex From: Lanfranc Please explain why Thursday is such a popular evening for holding a folk club or session! As I run sessions on the first and third Thursdays (Blackmore(Writtle) and Hertford) this adds another third Thursday club to the list that I am unlikely to be unable to attend, even though it is reasonably local, run by and featuring people I would like to see and hear. Today I heard of another new club, in Loughton this time, run by Jim Coombes. Guess which night every week? You've guessed it - Thursday! Oh well ... where two or three are gathered together...

Believe it or not, Thursday was carefully chosen because other nights clashed with important things... IME Friday is one of the most popular nights for a Folk Club. We might consider moving to a different day for the next season, but no doubt there will then be complaints from somewhere else. |
