you can showcase at one of my clubs anytime.

As a folk club organiser I have yet to recieve an invitation to attend as a prospective 'booker' yet it is others such as I who engage you the peformers.

I think it my responsibility to my clients i.e. the good folk who come to listen at my clubs, to hear all acts live before booking them, although a demo CD does help give some idea, but its really the live performance that I am booking.

Cold calling is not the best way of selling if you're unknown to the recipient of the call.

I have my doubts about showcasing , best if artistes invite organisers to their gigs as guests.

the jury is out on this one at present, I need more info I think.
