Return visit to the Burneston Folk Club (not been since May 2008!)... what a smashing friendly club - we had a great time. It's a 150 mile round trip to the Woodman for us but worth it.
There were quite a number of performers - some familiar and some not - and a great variety of music and entertainment. There was unaccompanied singing, poetry reading, mandolin, bouzouki, guitar, accordions and ukelele... traditional and contemporary folk songs, pop classics, country - a very eclectic mix.
For our first turn we sang 'Different Dreams' (jiva) and our newest song 'When' (jiva)... for our second turn we sang 'Love At The Five & Dime' (Nanci Griffith) and 'Two Old Friends' (Chris Simpson). Lots of joining in at appropriate places and quiet attention for the slower song too.
Host/MC Glyn even announced our our forthcoming trip to the USA to get married in the Taylor Guitars factory in California!
