'Body Count' session at North By Northwest
8pm, Thursday, 4th October 2007

Folk Music has somewhat of a reputation for being a source of songs about trials and tribulations, doom and gloom, and death and destruction, and we seem to delight in singing them. So the tradition of the “body count” session has sprung up, where we look for the song (or poem) which manages to kill off the greatest number of people ( and possibly small animals) - and have fun doing it. Well, some people do say we folkies are a strange lot!

This is a night where everyone can join in. So bring along your best contenders - whether they be song, poem or story, and let the body count roll! A hilarious night of entertainment is guaranteed!
