Looking at this thread and Scotchmist, I realized how many groups there were. Maybe my coming of age, late 50’s but we would go to many places on Friday and Saturday nights and later on Sunday. As Oldbrit said we drank a lot of beer, sometimes a little too much. Our thing was Trad and Modern Jazz. We loved to go to the town hall but that was a little pricey. We did go however when the really big names played there.
