Subject: RE: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !! From: alanabit Date: 16 Apr 07 - 07:45 AM No problem Muppitz. No one knows everywhere! It is in the West Country on the North coast, just up on the border, where England gives way to beautiful Cornwall. (To be fair to it, Devon is not a bad looking place either...) It's a couple of miles up the coast from Tintagel and Boscastle etc. |

There's a possibility I could be convinced now that Cleethorpes has sadly demised and I wouldn't be seen at Chester again until they get somesort of security sorted out. muppitz x |
Subject: RE: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !! From: Hawker Date: 15 Apr 07 - 08:45 PM Yes, we are aware that it is chippenham, and this has been discussed on another thread. However, we cannot change the date for this year. that is something that may well change for next year. We really would like a few dance sides, I know its a tall ask when there is no money involved, butif there are any keen for a practise in a festival atmosphere, then please get in touch! Cheers, Lucy |

Subject: RE: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !! From: GUEST Date: 15 Apr 07 - 02:06 PM for what its worth, check out breezy who ran the St Albans Windward club - where george Papavgeris was resident and still has some connection - as he normally goes to padstow for a week at whit he'll probably be down for may-day so get hawker to sound him out He also used to run a folk club at the Summerleaze hotel in Bude before he was poached by the oss folk he's booked for Folk on the moor later this year so he still does the occasional gig George Papavgeris knows how to handle him |

Subject: RE: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !! From: George Papavgeris Date: 15 Apr 07 - 12:43 PM There's a good chance I might make it, but would need somewhere to kip for the night with the good lady Vanessa. |
Subject: RE: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !! From: Leadfingers Date: 15 Apr 07 - 12:42 PM As I will be gigging on the Friday AND the Saturday that weekend I cannot make an offer - And the Sunday and Monday are out too as I am actually doing those gigs in America . Otherwise I woud love to help out , but in fact can only wish you luck. |
Subject: RE: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !! From: Dave Earl Date: 15 Apr 07 - 12:39 PM A Festival too far I fear. Also it clashes with Chippenham which could be a problem for you. Dave |

Subject: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !! From: bubblyrat Date: 15 Apr 07 - 12:08 PM Are there any UK musicians out there who are FREE ( in more ways than one ! ) this coming Whitsun weekend, viz. 25--28th May 2007 ?? It is hoped to Revive and Resurrect the moribund Bude Folk Festival next month.As it is necessary to convince the " Powers that Be " of its viability, performers ( AND festival attendees !! ) are needed, BUT --for the performers, there is virtually no budget available ( next year , perhaps ) --it"s a "chicken & egg " situation !! SO--could ANY artistes, groups,ceilidh-bands,Morris sides, Appalachian teams, cloggers, rappers, lion-tamers or exhibitionists, who are NOT booked to play /perform / expose themselves at Whitsun next month , consider helping out with this Worthy Cause and coming along to perform just for the camaraderie and the craic----You"ll be famous for it ,I promise !! If you"ve nothing better to do ( and, let"s face it, what COULD be better than helping to re-establish another Folk Venue, in such a beautiful and friendly part of the country ??? )--Then PLEASE get in touch --preferably with "HAWKER " , as she lives a mere oggie- throw from lovely Bude, and I don"t !! If you can"t come yourselves, PLEASE tell your friends about us /it !! Thankyou for reading this !!.......Roger.. |
