Thread Name: Where have the audiences gone?
Subject: RE: Where have the audiences gone?
Paulo (Banji...)works hard on promotion and the product is excellent, I think it easier to put everything into a good product, and he does. KFFC Winter Warmer was quite a unique event, certainly the singaround was, stuff of legends, but I dare say that was a tough one to pull round.
As to where the audiences are, well they are there, but are a bit like sheep, I think a lot miss out on good performances cos the performers are not houshold names, I think a lot kudos lies with the phrase, "I have been to see blah blah "(insert any name, KR, VG,MC,Cops. etc) But no kudos attached to seeing "Who?". Oh are people that shallow! It was nice to sing in front of 150 at the NCEM but they were really there to see "The Young Coppers" not us (actually we did manage to pack thirty or so in with rellies and friends!).
