LucyK Advice for a first-timer? (35) RE: Advice for a first-timer? 06 Apr 04


I didn't go on Sunday unfortunately - I'd been to a birthday party the night before and was absolutely exhausted! I'll definitely go in the next couple of weeks, though.

As for the kinds of songs I do, I like singing all sorts of things. I sing some English, Irish and Scottish traditional songs, plus some of the more modern things written in the same style in the late 1800s and on. There are some types of pop music I also enjoy experimenting with. In the end, I just play songs I really like, whether that's 'The Mountains of Mourne', 'Wild Mountain Thyme' or 'Moon River'!

However, the number of songs I have that are actually ready to be performed in public is fairly small; ones where I have all the words, the tune, and the chords absolutely off by heart! I'll just have to keep practising and see what comes of it.

I've also written a fair bit of filk in my time, but that's dropped off somewhat since I left university. I keep meaning to get back to it.
