   This past Wednesday I went to Folk Night at The Ship Pub here in   
   St. John's, Newfoundland.    The headliner was Solid Ground, who   
   are a trio of Nadine Hollett on vocals, Don Walsh on acoustic   
   guitar and some backing vocals, and Jason Whelan on bouzouki   
   and some backing vocals.   They did mostly celtic folk songs,   
   some they have learned off LPs and CDs, some in the   
   Newfoundland tradition.   I thought that they have improved   
   some since the last time I heard them, and I hope they put   
   out a CD someday.   Graham Wells joined them for their second   
   set, on button accordion and bodhran.   Between their sets   
   there was a full (four acts) open mic set.   
      
   The headliner for Feb. 10 is Duncan Cameron, a   
   multi-instrumentalist and singer who moved to   
   Newfoundland from Toronto not long ago.   
   The start time is now 9:30 p.m., not 9 p.m.   
      
   I didn't make it to Erin's on Friday or Saturday due to the snowstorm.
