Thread Name: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !!
Subject: Bude Folk Festival---Musicians Wanted !!
Are there any UK musicians out there who are FREE ( in more ways than one ! ) this coming Whitsun weekend, viz. 25--28th May 2007 ?? It is hoped to Revive and Resurrect the moribund Bude Folk Festival next month.As it is necessary to convince the " Powers that Be " of its viability, performers ( AND festival attendees !! ) are needed, BUT --for the performers, there is virtually no budget available ( next year , perhaps ) --it"s a "chicken & egg " situation !!
SO--could ANY artistes, groups,ceilidh-bands,Morris sides, Appalachian teams, cloggers, rappers, lion-tamers or exhibitionists, who are NOT booked to play /perform / expose themselves at Whitsun next month , consider helping out with this Worthy Cause and coming along to perform just for the camaraderie and the craic----You"ll be famous for it ,I promise !! If you"ve nothing better to do ( and, let"s face it, what COULD be better than helping to re-establish another Folk Venue, in such a beautiful and friendly part of the country ??? )--Then PLEASE get in touch --preferably with "HAWKER " , as she lives a mere oggie- throw from lovely Bude, and I don"t !! If you can"t come yourselves, PLEASE tell your friends about us /it !! Thankyou for reading this !!.......Roger..
