Subject: Love & promote thy Accordions
Hi

there hasn't been an accordion thread out recently so I thought I best start one.

I wondered about setting up an accordion concert chain. What this would mean is where ever you travel there will be a list of accordionist who live nearby, you could then get together and if you give enough time advance notice you could do a concert and say a workshop teaching them your favorite tune, to earn your board & door takings (dependiong on size of gig) You could also work on some duets to perform at the concerts.

When I say travel I mean travel, the world is your oyster, that is aslong as you can get a contact, which is where mudcat comes in.

So what do you think? sheer madness or is there a practicale interesting idea?

the term 'accordions' includes button & piano accordions, melodion and concertina

cheers, Sam
