27 May 15 - 07:18 AM (#3712105) Subject: Folk Music, South London From: Raggytash Last night at our session at the Elsinore in Whitby I was approached by a chap from South London who told me he had really enjoyed the night as he never heard any folk in South London. I said that I thought there would be plenty and I would endeavour to find out where. So over to you guys where can he find folk in South London. Names of venues and nights would be appreciated. |

Then there is the Eltham stuff, at the Rugby club and in Foots Cray. |
