Detlef Stachetzki was in Grauerheindorf to capture the latest Folk-Club evening – here is my translation of his review:
Even good weather, a long weekend thanks to Ascension Day, and a qualifying match for the World Championship didn’t deter music fans from attending the Graurheindorfer Folk Club. Maybe because the chances of relaxing at the Folk Club are much greater than the chances of managing to do it watching an International Football Game? Whatever the reason, it was good to see all the familiar smiling faces once again.
New faces were present too. In particular those from ‘The General-Anzeiger’ which had sent a reporter and photographer to find out what all the fuss was about at our gatherings. The result was an excellent report published on the following Monday. Their estimate of the audience number at 140 was a little ‘über’enthusiastic though. Such a large turnout would have practically burst the walls – or at the very least stretched the catering staff to breaking point. We’ve certainly had around 100 people here on a Winters’ evening though, and the 70 or so that were actually there on Friday, made for a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere – as well as allowing our Guardian Angel and Bar Manageress Angelika Bürfent to keep everyone fed and ‘watered’.
