Subject: RE: Don 'Wysiwig' Thompson- Blatant Ad
I must have upset someone, as my thread can't keep its head above water for 24 hours.
However, it wasn't the Friday Folk audience I upset.
When I did my booked gig at FF last month the audience and I enjoyed each other enormously. I have no hesitation in recommending Friday Folk as the friendliest folk club for the next Alternative Folk Awards.
I had a severe chest infection for the whole week preceding my gig, and I had two hours of rehearsal on the day.
I have never been so unprepared for a booking, but I needn't have worried. They were with me every inch of the way. So much so that I went into overdrive, and probably did the best performance of my life.
No, I didn't mention the chest infection till the end of the evening. They are just that sort of community.
