New Year, Twelfth Night, and wassail

Eddie Butcher Senior
Last week's session was better lit than the previous one. The electric lights were working again but the attendance was very poor. Mike made the point that if we don't start to get more bums on seats the club could close so if you are in the Bristol area on a Friday night please do make an effort to drop in on The Bridge and bring as many friends as possible. If you are able and willing to perform that's great but we certainly won't turn away an eager audience either. We call ourselves a folk club and our core is British, Irish, American and Australian folk song but we'll give any acoustic music, poems, recitations or stories a go.

Mike started us off with Bold General Wolfe. This was the first session of 2014 so there was a good attempt at some relevant songs for the New Year.
