I think if you try to get your audience into the real folk music that is not trying to be anything else just great trad music you won't confuse your audience and probably give them a great feeling in the fact they have discovered this great music that is as good as say garage, classical, drum & bass, jazz or trance

So how do you actually get your audience to come to the venue?

Say for example you have a great trad band with loads of enegry and drive, as we have discussed above, how do sell it & promote it. And where would you base it, run it and what time would you put the gig on?

I pose many questions but I think it is an important issue for all musicians to keep in mind, come on catters show us what your made of!!
