From: Sir Roger de Beverley

If I knew a way of doing it on Mudcat, I'd attach a copy of the fringe programme. Suffice it to say that most of what we did last year in the PVFF survives into the fringe - the main casualty has been the music in the Mariners which has changed hands since last year. All of the others - Sun, Foresters, Oddfellows, Hodgsons, Beehive,Tiger, Nellies, Moulders are putting as much or more than they did in 2002.

Assuming that the licensees come up with enough advertising, the festival programme (which includes the fringe) will be free - it cost £2 in 2001. I'm convinced that the free PVFF programme (designed by Les) last year got a lot of locals involved and I'm keen to repeat that for now and the future.

Too true Roger! If the locals get a programme and go to a pub and hear some music and buy some beer and please the landlord who can afford to put some money in to provide a free programme...

And hopefully there will more people about to watch dance displays and such and put money in tins. All this means support from businesses and people who live in the area who elect the people who contribute money and facilities to the festival.

From: Sir Roger de Beverley
Date: 29 May 03 - 08:59 AM

Everything that Les says about the free programmes is true and I have fought hard to get them this year. However, I have just been given some bad news:

Chris Wade, the festival director, has informed me that, despite the best efforts of the publicity man Ray Grange, only one pub (the Sun) is prepared to take advertising space in the festival programme. That effectively scuppers any plans for a free programme although Chris says that they will be cheaper than in previous years - possibly £1.

I have written an intro to the fringe to go in the programme and have mentioned all of the venues involved. I have also produced a one page table of fringe events which I will distribute to the pubs so that they can copy them and hand out to customers if they wish. This is not what we had hoped for but we can't expect the festival organisers to produce thousands of extra copies for nowt and, unlike last year, we don't have any money for printing.

She was asking for £50 per ad, Rog. Personally, I did't think that extortionate, but the smaller pubs don't wanna pay that much.

Incidentally, if anyone spots a really drunk bloke who looks exactly like me wandering about the Festival clutching a guitar and singing lewdly at anyone who'll listen, it's not me. I'm not going this year, but my twin brother is apparently going to attend. Just wanted to clear that up in advance.

We'd better explain the 'Iced Gems at teatime' reference to those who haven't come across it before. Often at festivals we find that some people want to use the time between 6pm and 8pm(ish) to eat, but we are made of sterner (or dafter!) stuff. We like to use this time to have a nice little choice session, and, if possible, to give people an opportunity to sing or play (or recite or dance) something a bit different - something they may not want to attempt in a singaround, or something they might not get the chance to do in musicians session. Not to say that it has to be different, that's entirely up to you.

Be in Sun early afternoon, working in the morning. Are you heading off back to Hull each night by taxi? if so can I be included for Sat night as I will probably be staying at my lad's flat at Eldon Grove. I'm o.k. for Fri night I think. Go home early Sun evening.

Yes Jim - taxis. We don't know what times though, we'll take it as it comes.

I got a posh new low F gobiron for me berthday (from Mags, bless 'er), so I might need some help in the key of 3, sometime over the weekend.

And Linda and John presented me with a bottle o' Buckfast (we were all in Glasgow). I may need your opinion on the right kind of brown paper bag to go with it.

Hey, don't forget the DeanMeister's session/singaround (apparently famous throughout the country!) on Sunday afternoon at the Sun Inn. I'll be there, along with the usual bunch of rabble. Hope to get a fantastic turnout this year. Perhaps the Hologram will put in an appearance?

Also, in case it escaped anybody's attention, the world renowned, internationally acclaimed lunatic Punch The Horse will be appearing in all their splendour at the Sun on Friday night. Come and see what all the fuss is about, cos I'm buggered if I know!

See ya for a pint Friday afternoon, Jim.

Post the URL of your website, or wherever you've uploaded your pics, to Pene Azul: [e-mail] and tell him which you want putting on Mudcat, and what you want them labelling etc. He will do the rest, superhero that he is (thanks Jeff!)

Then they will appear in Member Photos & Info, reached from the drop-down menu at the top of the page.

When the pics are there, you (or I, or anyone else who's taken the next step in remedial HTML, or anyone who can use the blickifier under the message box) can put a blue clickie in this thread to take people straight there.

If you like, in the meantime, you can post the URL of your Kodak site in this thread so we can get there directly- depends if there's anything else there that you don't want available to the general public.

Try Yahoo photos, Mrs Duck. You have to sign up with them first but it's free, and I've always found it very easy to use. You get 30MB storage, which I've just noticed I've nearly used up.

Once you have signed in, you select Add Photos (NO!) and tell it where on your computer you have stored your photos. You can upload a batch at a time, but I'd keep it to 3 or so at a time if you've not got broadband.

Then once you have uploaded to Yahoo, you can send the URL to Pene Azul, as in my post above to Raggy.

Their debut album is still in my collection and on my iPod. I found the music to be intriguing and I still listen to it for ideas/inspiration. Some of their lyrics seem a bit strange (reminiscent of the times), but overall they still intrigue me.

All the best,

Mick

This year it'll be chiefly - a tent.

Remember it all like it was yesterday, Mick. Somebody recently started a fortnightly folk session that I attended. Mnnyyaaaa - Mrs McGrath was indeed belted out, along with the auld Punch Ladle. Brilliant to do some of that again. Gonna wheel out some Nic Jones and Martyn Simpson this friday, that'll give em something to think about! Heh heh. Folk is alive and well in St. Helier, I'm pleased to report. There were fiddle players, banjos, whistles, flutes, and guitars. Just need a good box player now and it'll be just like Nellies used to be. Wehey!

Have a great weekend everybody, hope the weather is ok for you!
