Thread Name: White Horse Folk Fest, Going?
Subject: RE: White Horse Folk Fest, Going?
Glad to hear it. It was a lot of fun! I was wondering if I could make a suggestion though about 'What the folk'? It was kinda disappointing if you had something prepared and had to wait to see if you would be picked, and then were not picked.

It is obviously very popular, so I was thinking of the way they run 'Gloom Doom and Despondency' at Sidmouth. People put their names down beforehand, as for a blackboard concert, and then you know if you are going to get a turn, rather than having to wait and wonder. I think even if we had KNOWN we weren't going to get a turn, we still would have stayed to enjoy it anyway, but the uncertainty would have been taken out, making it more enjoyable. Just something to consider for next year......

Next year we hope to have more opportunities to participate in general.
