Thread Name: Manners at festival sessions.
Subject: Manners at festival sessions.
Having spent a couple of days playing in sessions at another wonderful Upton festival I have again been reminded how people's manners tend to go out of the window when at festival sessions. Just as an exampl; the all too common scenario of a fellow musician barging past, interrupting concentration, enjoyment and, sometimes.even the space needed to play. Thankfully people tend to be well mannered and considerate at their friendly "home" session but plonk them in a festival environment and it can all too easily turn into a wrestling match. Why? We're all here to enjoy some good music . And just because yo're not joining in it doesn't give anyone the right to shout across the room to your mate.
