Just got back from the folk club

Hi, this is by way of me saying thanks, I just got back from the folk club where I sang a song again! Did King of Rome this week & am on a high! Really beginning to feel part of the club! Their village festival is this Fri & Sat & they have asked me to go to it & sing in the pub for the public!
Don't think that they are ready for nude morris dancing yet, but it is only a matter of time.
So thanks to all of you (& there where many) who propped me up when I needed it. You a a bunch of stars!

In years to come, someone will find your old CD recording in a skip, and offer it free on Mudcat, to the first one who asks.

Keep it up Skipy.
Nothing quite so pleasing as the opportunity to sing.
If others enjoy your performance that's a bonus, but just to let it out is a great personal feeling!

Cheers

Bloody well done, Skipy.

Feels great doesn't it?

Not only that, but the songs you've sung are not the easiest one's to sing.

Onwards and upwards, but most of all ENJOY!

An appropriate song, King of Rome, since it's about someone who achieved what had seemed an impossible dream. Well done!

May your glow last and last!!!

I'm still slightly effervescent from being playing with a dance band at my favorite festival, and enjoying the feeling of being a real musician, with something to contribute, there for the first time.

This is a feeling to hug to yourself when all the rest of the world seems dim, so enjoy!
