Thread Name: 'Folk Club Forum' at Sidmouth Festival
Subject: RE: 'Folk Club Forum' at Sidmouth Festival
I will be recording the whole discussion and Derek Schofield has expressed an interest in an article that summarises the points discussed for English Dance & Song - though that will obviously depend on the quality of the discussion! Ninety minutes would certainly be too long for a YouTube or MySpace upload, but if I get time, I will attempt to draw a summary and synopsis from the points made and post it somewhere on the web - perhaps here. My intention is that the meeting should be positive and forward looking in tone and as chairman, I will not want time devoted to moaning or backward-looking negativity - we are at this point in 2011; how can we go forward?

I do intend to have a timed agenda for the 90 minute meeting with six relevent items being awarded 10 minutes each followed by 30 mins general discussion afterwards. I will post this here once it has been finalised.

... and for newcomers to the thread the references by ripov and myself above are to a spam posting that has now, thankfully, been removed.
