A mini soap-opera - quite entertaining,and maybe even instructive once I can work out what the lessons might be! Maybe its just - dont get caught out.Self-promotion is everywhere - maybe less in the folk world than other forms of music,or literature - chat programmes on radio or tv are almost entirely filled by people plugging their latest book or whatever.Its all ever so slightly naff - but were told we have to do it.Otherwise we'd have to spend time getting so good at what we do that people would come to see us anyway - as I would say Nic Jones did (but almost no-one has since). You sang well on thursday David - but if you go to Wrenthorpe again - better leave out the Fields of Athenry parody!Good to see you on here "Wullie"!
