Hi, I'm fairly new here, and to folk music - just started playing guitar and singing (and fiddling shortly) at a folk club here in Cambridge early last year.

For anyone in the UK, incidentally, I recommend going to the Unicorn in Cherry Hinton on the 3rd Wednesday evening of each month. Good friendly folk club with an average-ish standard, so it's OK for anyone to get up and have a go. Also recommended is the 3 Stags outside Sheffield on a Saturday night, if anyone's from around there - that's much more professional though.

Anyway, I was wondering, what's the etiquette for posting new songs? I've got one I wrote myself just b4 xmas, and I'd like to post it. Do I stick it on here and look for a general yes/no opinion, or what?

And as a side issue, have I missed some sort of filtering? There's hundreds of messages appearing each day, and I can't track them all and work at the same time! Any advice? apart from quitting work to read forums all day that is! :-)

Cheers folks,

Grab.
