Steve, Bude folk Club opened its doors on the 22nd April at The Falcon, Bude, The first one was a quiet affair, as it wasn't widely advertised, as we sort of just bit the bullet and went for it within a couple of weeks. The second one was tonight, it was well advertised, verbally, with posters, on Mudcat and in The Cornish and Devon Post, (local paper) The advertising obviously worked 'cos the room was packed! We were lucky to be blessed with Canberra Chris' presence from Australia (one of the Shiny Bum Singers) What a lovely chap and what a lovely voice! we really are in for a treat!
The festival is unfunded, so we are not paying for ads, there are press releases out for this week, so you should see something then, The local Gazette had something in last week, Posters are out and being posted as we speak, as are flyers and the like, As part of the festival guest list, perhaps you would like some, to ditribute, i'll leave some with Emma at the Tree when I visit on Wednesday.
Hope to see you at the next folk club, on the 10th June!
Cheers, Lucy
