Subject: RE: Thinking about starting a new festival
The Leveller....Scarborough Seafest (w/e 18th-20th July)....doesn't that count?
I started a weekend minifest last November (The KFFC Winter Warmer Weekend ). Almost like Betsy suggests but with a lot of local & regional bands + a few national names, it sold out the intended 110 tickets, so was succesful within it's own terms of reference.
Doing similar again on November 21st to 23rd (KFFC 1st Big Birthday Bash, all under one roof, indoor & outdoor camping, plenty of hard standing for vans and a good time guaranteed....all this for £20) with:
Last Night's Fun Mary Humphries & Anahata Keeper's Fold Marie Little Duncan McFarlane & Anne Brivonese Wendy Arrowsmith Hamish Currie Hut People Brother Crow Kim Guy Ian McKone Jim Potter Bill Lloyd Nickie Willis Tony Levy Zoe Mulford Wheezi Anna Blind Sum'it
Continuous, legendary singarounds, sessions, workshops in a beamed pub (with 3 big rooms!) in a beautiful North Yorks village. Tickets available (pm or email me!) from today, on line sales available in 2 weeks time.
Don't care if the thread is a wind-up, good opportunity for me to tell you about something that is happening!!!
