Subject: RE: Hope for folk music - Jon Doran!
Let's for instance say I'm a young folk singer, just out of A level Performing Arts, or Folk University..
Jim could outline all he'd want me to aspire to do and be as a real trad folk singer.. ..and I'd might go like "Nah.. don't want to.."..
But that'd only be if I knew or cared that mudcat existed...
Or maybe one of my mate's grandad might be a member, and mentioned that some geezer Jim was going on about me..
Then maybe I could go like..
"Is mudat like SAGA youtube, can I get thumbs ups and subscribers, and get monetised on there...???
..no.. what.. it's really old fashioned plain text pages with hardly any viewer footfall.. Oh well, **** that, not bothered then.."...
