Hello all, I am a Irish tenor banjo player, guitar, mandolin, whistles, vocals player from, Nottingham/ long Eaton. I am 17 going on 18 years old and feel its about time to start making lovely music with others. I am looking for other youngish folkies who love nothing more than to play rhythmic pounding folk tunes, soft melodies, harmonious and pounding songs. to start a band I love folk music. From traditional to modern. I am
inspired by Luke Kelly and the Dubliners, Christy more, the pogues the Clancy brothers the chieftains, altan , solas , Dougie Maclean and many many many more. I am very open-minded and love to hear new amazing stuff.

Being modest (not bigheaded hopefully he he) I say I can hold fast tunes (with some improvisation of my own) on the old banjo mandolin and whistles as well as improvising nice counter melodies to go along with others singing. I also sing quite a few songs with decent quality (trying not to sound cocky). I would just love to start a band with other young folkies who share my passion for folk music (not that there's nothing wrong with oldies, most of my folk musician friends are mature adults, infact I think some of them use this site (so no offence to them) and i love them all for brining such amazing music to me in the past years and introducing me to the folk club circuit I would have just been playing in pubs in Ireland with my family and at home if it wasn't for you. So thank you (most of all to mikk skinner))

I am quite open minded to all instruments, would love a fiddler to share kick as tunes with and another person to back up tunes and songs with (I have no problem with the band having 5 solo singers if it wishes.. infact multi instrumentalers would be the best because equality in the band would be brilliant e.g. I sing a song then I back someone else up on a tune or a song then someone backs me up on a tune. and the circle just keeps going round)

i would love for us all to show our talents off.
Very willing and open minded to song writers as I have written some as well, so would love to collaborate on my own and other peoples songs.

You will often find me at the Mansfield folk club at the brown cow,
the Vernon arms folk club in spondon
and various other open mikes, sessions and clubs around Nottinghamshire/derbyshire long Eaton and beeston on a weekly basis.


so if your up for it my number is 01158545494 or [e-mail]

or perhaps catch me at a folk club or contact me, I await any replies with the uttermost enthusiasm

just ask for

(by the way I am a boy not a girl if the name confuses)

I have deleted the telephone number and email. This appears to be a windup, but if you want the email back in here, I would suggest an email to [e-mail]. Mudelf

I'd get your number and e.mail off this thread ASAP.

Team? where are you?

We might be a nice bunch, but this is an international public forum and you are putting yourself atgreat risk by letting everyone know where you live, where you hang out, your number, e.mail, and the fact that you are a naive young 17 year old girl.

hmmmmmmmmm

It's your private number.

Available to everyone - nice and nasty.

and your local hangout.

and your home town.

and your e.mail.

All you need is one asshole out of the millions whocould read this post.

How do you know I'm not one (all "witty" responses aside)

honestly, does anyone else think I'm overreacting?

If so I'll retract it all, but you wouldn't catch me putting that much personal info into a public forum.

I can't help you Stacey but I'd like to say good luck & to encourage you to continue. We've had youngen's around here that have done well for themselves, Sam Pirt before he was bigger time comes to mind, very nice guy met him here in New Hampshire (USA) quite awile ago along withh is guitar playing bud, very nice young fellows & great musicians. So stick around & keep playing around the more you're out & about like this the better you make good odds at eventually hooking up with others. Don't forget your schooling, espically if you're planning a music school, it's a hub for meeting others like yourself. Travel farther & farther out hit the Welsh & English & Scottish circuts when possible. You'll find a greeting by mudcatters now matter where you land up & most are always good for pushing ahead new, young blood as long as you're decent folk & respectful.
You get this way & we'll give you support here in the Northeast part of the US too.
Good Luck
Barry

Stacey, if this isn't a windup (don't be defensive, it has all the hallmarks of an earlier one) then I suggest you join as a member and get a cookie so you can get PM's. Much safer for you that way.

Chill guest.

If you feel fine about it that's your choice.

The wind up could have been someone posting the details of someone they don't like onto the net to get them unwarranted attention from people they don't know.

It happens. Some people can be cruel.

Your reaction suggests that my concerns about your safety are bugging you a little though, so maybe I'm not being that paranoid.

It's not my intention to panic you, but there are some pretty fundamental rules about safety when you are on the net in a public forum.

You don't have to follow them if you don't want to, it's a free forum, but I think it makes sense to exercise a little caution.

I think you have given away toomuch personal info to people you don't know, and I don't just mean the ones posting and chatting, but the passers by and mischief makers.

You're making yourself vulnerable in a way that I wouldn't be comfortable to. That's it.

Stacey, one more thing. I'm glad ouput you name out here but lox was just trying to be helpful. There is a way to send out private info by using a PM (personnal message), see the drop down menue above that says quick links, you'll need to become a member but there's no fear in that. Lastly, if it's a guest posting with no name attached, some of us hear don't take them all to seriously even though some maybe, so don't sweat the posts from "Guests" until they'd like to put there name or some name even any name up there.
Again Best of luck

Hi Stacey
Think I heard you at the Brown Cow ( my local folk club ) the other night. I would suggest you do a few folk festivals, go as a steward if money is a problem, You will find an amazing range of like minded people of all ages, creeds etc.Make yourself known and I,m sure the rest will fall into place.Maybe see you at the Brown Cow again soon

It seems a banjo picker died and went to the pearly gates and Saint Peter said, "A banjo picker, eh?... and bluegrass at that. With a background like that, you'll have to take a special test for admission. The test is to tell me what is God's first name?"

The banjo picker said, "Oh that's easy. God's first name is Andy. We sing it at Sunday school every week:

Andy walks with me
Andy talks with me
Andy tells me I am his own..."

Banjo jokes are generally aimed at five-stringers. The Irish tenor banjo is a different instrument entirely.

In the Irish context the "banjo jokes" traditionally get transferred to the bodhran player.

Now you've signed up, may I suggest you PM Louisey? She is a great singer, plays keyboard and whistle and has been looking for a band to play with. She lives in South Derbyshire and is early 20s.

I've also suggested my son RAT-W read this thread too. He sings and plays oboe (Cool folk instrument....just go and see Isambarde!). He's nearly 16. Transport may be a prob for him, but if Louise joins you, she only lives a couple of miles from us.
