hi shimrod

I think we are together on this.!!

I realise that constructive criticism and at the right time ( not as the performer is on stage )is healthy.

I was really responding to remarks made here and in earlier threads about some members of folk audiences showing obvious signs of discontent at some performers, especially if they are not playing what they see as "their music".

I have seen it happen in the clubs around here on many occasions. It is not clever and it certainly is not constructive.

I too have been criticised by other performers but in a helpful way with recommendations how to improve.

cheers
