07 May 13 - 12:34 PM (#3512612) Subject: Yorkshire Air Ambulance Anthem From: Uncle Tone I flag this up again as I know a couple of folks from Mudcat were interested in entering the competition. Because of the commitments of the helicopter crews, they can't now be present at our Folk Weekend at Sutton upon Derwent, Yorks, May 31st to June 2nd. But I will upload any entries to YouTube or SoundCloud so they can be judged by the crews at their leisure before the event. During the concert we would then announce the winner. If you want to enter you can upload your entries yourselves or send me a CD. Email details are in the attached link. The winner will meet the crews, be shown around a base, and will experience how the Helicopter Heroes TV programme is made at some date to suite operational requirements. Further details are here: Yorkshire Air Ambulance Gig Don't forget our Saturday evening concert, in Sutton upon Derwent Village Hall, features Steve Tilston, who is generously doing the gig in support of our cause. We need your support too. Tickets are available online at: Steve Tilston Concert Folky blessings Tone |

The link to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance Gig above led you to one of our entries for the competition. The correct link, hopefully, is: Yorkshire Air Ambulance Gig Can you do better than above? (Please bear in mind we are not judging performance or recording quality.) Tone |

12 May 13 - 07:39 AM (#3514160) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Air Ambulance Anthem From: Uncle Tone I have now uploaded another entry for the competition. That's two so far, and two more already written and waiting to be recorded. You don't need to live in Yorkshire to enter an anthem or song. We are not judging performance or recording quality. Could you compete with these?: Turn Blades Turn by Pat Glenwright Care in the Air by Bruce Elder Details in above post, and closing date will have to be Tuesday 28th May. Tone |

Best wishes, Mike." I don't see why not, Mike, as long as it's not too much of a rip-off of the lyrics too. But I'm not the judge. I have no idea what the YAA crews might think is acceptable. Tone |

I've added your YouTube link to the list. Can you please private message me the lyrics and your contact details? I now have another entry too: Where Only Heroes Can Fly by David Swann Tone |

14 May 13 - 02:42 PM (#3515053) Subject: RE: Yorkshire Air Ambulance Anthem From: Uncle Tone "Anyone else entered yet?" I have a sixth entry that I haven't received as recorded yet, but I have heard it live. A very sweet song. Should have it uploaded to YouTube on Thursday. Meanwhile I've uploaded the SoundCloud entry to YouTube because some don't want to register with SoundCloud. It can be heard here: Care in the Air by Bruce Elder Tone |
