No no KILL was used as adescription to say that Hull council had put two events together to save money ~ [I thought!!!]

Clearly as I wasnt there cannot comment with authority so apologies if this isnt correct [shut up padgett lol]


Clearly Mick the shanty events despite problems was highly succesful

Some ppl would have gone to original dated Hull Shanty now Maritime fest(later on) or

Bradfield/Mansfield/Saddleworth now just finished

However the original gripe was a generalisation covering many things happening all at once in the whole of Yorkshire!!

We do have a finite audience and festivals in my view are in danger of forcing out folk clubs! (separate topic chaps)

I was annoyed at the awful communications in place ~ Hull being one of many suffering
