Thread Name: Advice for a newbie to the folk scene?
Subject: RE: Advice for a newbie to the folk scene?
Rich I am not. I am very lucky that my husband has a very good job which technically means I dont have to work but I have a very expensive to run (fuel thirsty) car to keep on the road and am not willing to part with it so I could do with earning a little and from the odd gig or two would be nice way to earn it. Its more of a personal goal to make a go of music if I manage to make it pay then great! I just want to get out there and play and get gigs.

"that's very kind to consider our humble Guest-free Singaround."
I love going to singarounds with or without guest, they build up my confidence as I now get more nervous at them than I do in front of an proper audience. I love to hear what other people are doing and learning new songs, I am totally new to this and need all the help I can get!

"Do you have a website?"
Not yet unfortunately. My old job was a website designer you would think I would have my act together but I havnt got that far yet. I have a myspace page only at the moment.
