Thread Name: Sheffield Folk festival 2010
Subject: RE: Sheffield Folk festival 2010
I'm sorry to say that not much has been done. I've not heard if the Music for Malcolm event is going on this year. I have had premilnary discussions with some people and I am keen to resuurect certain aspects of the Festival as mention in this thread. I think there is scope to carry on with the excellent sessions that the Festival produced but Sheffield's perennial problems with regard to lack of decent size venues for concerts and ceilidhs come to the fore. I do not have the time to invest as I had before but I am willing to give my expertise and help. We also still have a bank account (with a small amount in it) and a logo. I do remember the help that you did give David, to Trev and the sound team and it was much appreciated. Lets have a debate on here and see what interest there is. I know that venues like the Kelham Island Tavern for interest would support it.
