Standard is mixed, saw some pretty cringy poetry but that might just have been me as everyone else seemed into it. Mixture of people paying a 'set' of a few songs and others trying out new compositions. There is a central crew who take turns in being the lead organiser I think but the vibe stays consistent. My experience has felt like being round at a relaxed house party where those with talent get up and do their thing. Last one I attended turned into a proper knees up while the last act (a young dude with a rock-folk style) played. Also has a bit of a salon feel- good conversations and discussions to be had.
Cheers for this, sounds great, will definitely try and head down to the next one and check it out. On the look out for good folk clubs/sessions etc as would love to find a violinist who's up for playing some folk/bluegrass...
