Thread Name: Auditions for new Folk club in Barnsley
Subject: RE: Auditions for new Folk club in Barnsley
Erm... I wasn't expecting to get this many responces.

First off I'm a she. A young she, all of 24. All I know about this audition is what I've already placed in the intial post in this thread. I was simply asked by my old head teacher to put up two or three posters about the auditions in the college I attend, as well as mentioning it anywhere that may have interested parties.

I know nothing of the politics involved. Tony mentioned something about there being payment for performances at the club but he really didn't go into details. The only advice I can give is to ring the number for Tony Heald himself, up in the above post, as I intend to, if you have questions about the auditions yourselves.

As to the kind of club it may be, I really don't have a clue. I have no connection with the audition apart from it being held by my ex-headteacher, who I ran into by chance a couple of days ago, and who asked me to do him a favour. I will be audtioning myself, if only because I enjoy singing in public for a interested audience :)

The reason I posted this here was because I thought Mudcat was the sort of place that performers and audiences who might be interested in this, could be found in abundance. I haven't been a regular on Mudcat for a few years now.. my studies and bringing up my son have taken up a great deal of my time. But it is nice to see the forum is even busier than before :)

I hope this clears up one or two things. I'm sorry if I have somehow antagonised anyone, as I really didn't have any intention of doing so.

Take care folks
