"Folkandroots - myspace, which I just linked, placement in a few festival competitions, and, if the BBC do broadcast it, a brief recording at the Sage Gateshead, during the Free Thinking Festival."

I'm not personally interested one way or the other in listening to your myspace recordings, as good or not as they may be, however back to my point do you seriously think that 'placement in a few festival competitions' and a brief recording at the Sage Gateshead is a good reason for a promoter to spend their time AND MONEY taking a chance on you and do you really believe you would attract an audience to justify that risk, if not why should someone take a chance on you?
