Subject: RE: Buddy Holly - folk singer
good, at what he did though.
In fact when I ran a folk club,he was requested, so I booked him[twice I think].
as an organiser I worked on the principle,that I booked certain amount of that which I liked,and acertain amount of people requested by members,so we ende up with a broad spectrum ,from Andy Caven to John and Julia Clifford.
I would not have booked JohnLennon/Britney Spears impersonators,we all have our individual boundaries that are purely subjective,but as an organiser that is one of the perks of the job.
in the end it is organisers who decide who gets the work.the organisers have to be aware of their audience,and there are different kinds of folk audiences.Dick Miles
