I can't help you Stacey but I'd like to say good luck & to encourage you to continue. We've had youngen's around here that have done well for themselves, Sam Pirt before he was bigger time comes to mind, very nice guy met him here in New Hampshire (USA) quite awile ago along withh is guitar playing bud, very nice young fellows & great musicians. So stick around & keep playing around the more you're out & about like this the better you make good odds at eventually hooking up with others. Don't forget your schooling, espically if you're planning a music school, it's a hub for meeting others like yourself. Travel farther & farther out hit the Welsh & English & Scottish circuts when possible. You'll find a greeting by mudcatters now matter where you land up & most are always good for pushing ahead new, young blood as long as you're decent folk & respectful.
You get this way & we'll give you support here in the Northeast part of the US too.
Good Luck
Barry
