A great resource for all kinds of news, features, interviews, videos etc about UK folk and roots music.
A very useful guide to what's happening where on the folk and roots scene, with a click-on calendar.

OK it's a bit of a trek from Sarf East Lahndon, which was why we started the Goose in the first place, but hey it's a great friendly weekly club, so why not look to see who they've got on.
Give our love to Kevin, Sandra, Russ and Claire if you go!
Don't forget to check the trains are running - easy to get to if they are, not at all easy if they aren't. Well, depending on where you start from, of course!

A great folk club in Deptford! We can guarantee that you won't ever have been to any folk club quite like this but we can also guarantee that you'll almost certainly go back, if only to check that you weren't imagining it!
We'll forgive Katie and Helen for not updating their MySpace page (erm, pots and kettles spring to mind here, however) as apparently one of them has been in India and the other one in Brazil. We hope they will come back soon as we are getting withdrawal symptoms.

What can we say? Headquarters of the EFDSS (English Folk Dance and Song Society)
Half the Goose remembers going on a pilgrimage here around 1965, when there was a tiny little shop, and buying some books of morris tunes.
And now there's all sorts of things going on there!.
The website of the mag of the same name - "the essential worldwide roots music guide".
The same half of the Goose remembers fRoots when it was a little mag called Southern Rag. In fact she bought the very first issue, probably in Exeter.Where is it now? Sadly, unable to find a home for her vast collection of Southern Rags/Folk Roots they all went to that great Recycling Bin in the Sky, the internet not being around at the time.
Now there's sections of the website with folkie radio, playlists, and a forum which is useful partly for gossip (oh perish the thought) and partly for finding out about gigs which didn't get into the magazine (don't get us started on that ....)!
Check it out here .....
This site is a very useful resource for finding half-remembered song lyrics, but also has quite an addictive forum.
Not the most user-friendly of websites, but worth persevering!
Though watch out you don't get caught in the cross-fire of forumites arguing over some of the finer points of folk music ........
Another great site if you want to find out what's happening on the folk scene, with an emphasis as the name suggests on the younger end - though we wonder what they will call it when they all reach our age!! That's the Goose's age, not you of course, lol. Bright not-so-young folk? Bright middle-aged folk? Bright one-foot-in-the-grave-folk? :D
