I have to say that the musicians who were paid performers, and those who were playing for love of the music, at this weekend's Holmfirth festival were lovely people to work with and listen to. To a man and woman they were great and I would have no hesitation in inviting them back and all the feed back we have had says the same.
In my experience the ones who cause most trouble are those who demand the highest fees and have an inflated idea of their importance and I try not to book them if at all possible - at least not twice!
