Hi Stallion you talk a lot of sense, a Pop / Rock scene might have paid dividends - Glastonbury seems to, regardless of bad weather.As for the other halfwit who accuses me of being vitriolic in commenting on this matter, far from it, it is not exactly in my nature to be vitriolic , although like Nutty (who I admire), I reserve the right to express, and comment, on situations such as this especially when I and Nutty live within easy reach of both Saltburn and Pickering.
I have a most enjoyable time meeting for the first time El Greko and making a new friend - and he made a new fan , in addition to meeting many many old friends, mudcatters and acquaintances which made Saltburn a most pleasurable weekend.
This other person says that the (or she) " Who the hell do you think you are? Certainly not representative of the Northern folk scene as I know it, and have known it, ".
None of the Mudcatters I asked at the weekend knows who you are , and when I find out - I'll decide whether you have been around "the Northern folk scene" for over 40 years as I can certainly equal THAT.
