Good luck to you, Dick. I don't often agree with your postings but you do sterling work in the clubs. |

30 Oct 17 - 04:40 AM (#3885591) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Nov 3 2017 From: Vic Smith One of the purposes of Mudcat is to promote and inform about coming events. I use it for that purpose myself. I see no reason why Jack should be challenging Dick for doing so. If an artist tries to help attendance at a promoter's event then they should be praised, not criticised. As a club and festival organiser, I was always pleased to see artists trying to spread the word about events that I was organising. |

30 Oct 17 - 04:59 AM (#3885599) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Nov 3 2017 From: FreddyHeadey I'm fine with information on what's coming up. If I post something myself I find there's not a lot of space in the title bar but I try to mention the location and date. "Dublin - Teachers Club" would have been handy & maybe save JC from a wasted click & raised blood pressure. |

30 Oct 17 - 06:02 AM (#3885616) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Nov 3 2017 From: Will Fly More strength to your arm, Dick - have a good one. I would welcome a "Gigs" section on Mudcat - akin to "Tech", where I could check where 'Catters and others were playing. Most of my gigs are private functions, so not needing advertising, but the odd gig post - such as Horsham Folk Club last night - would be useful. |

30 Oct 17 - 06:11 AM (#3885617) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Nov 3 2017 From: GUEST Yes, if you're going to advertise a gig, you might as well tell us where it is. Parnell Square could be anywhere - Ireland, England, America, who knows? |

30 Oct 17 - 10:18 AM (#3885671) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Nov 3 2017 From: Iains Someone could always start a "what's on" thread by location US, Canada, UK, Ireland, whatever. Might get a few ideas below. http://www.folk-now.co.uk/folktalk/talk2.htm I originally felt uncomfortable seeing threads about performers, but what better forum to advertise? Helping people get attendance to their gigs and making them a few pennies is far more worthwhile than some of the bickering we see on threads here. I say good luck to Dick, and more power to your elbow! and does it ever stop raining in B?al an D? Chab? |

I think Bert tried to manage something along those lines here a while back. My own view is that they soon become virtually "unmaintainable". |

I once saw a post on here that said something like "the Rascals are at the red lion on Tues" - so has anyone any idea how many red lions there are in any county let alone any country !!! If you wish to inform then please do so!! |

30 Oct 17 - 09:12 PM (#3885834) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Nov 3 2017 - Dublin, Teacher's Club From: Joe Offer I wanted to go to the G?il?n Singers Club a few years back, and there were four Mudcatters waiting there to meet me. I walked and walked and finally found the Teacher's Club, and I was directed to a room where there was a concert raising funds for Palestine. I figured that musc be the G?il?n, but I didn't meet any Mudcatters. Turns out, the G?il?n was in another room. What a wonderful thing for a city, to have a building where two musical events were happening at the same time! I hope your concert goes well, Dick. Is the G?il?n happening at the same time? -Joe- |

Fabulous evening, so I'm sure Dick's night will be: well worth seeking out! (Btw, I have no problem with people posting gigs, festivals or anything else on here: it has been done often over the existence of Mudcat, and I have been guilty of same!) |

07 Nov 17 - 02:09 PM (#3887348) Subject: RE: Dick Miles Nov 3 2017 - Dublin, Teacher's Club From: Tattie Bogle The night we went, Grace Toland was the guest: lovely singing. It was the week when it was 30 years since Luke Kelly had died, and very soon after Pete Seeger had also passed away. The MC, Roisin?, asked if there could be a song from the repertoire of each of those 2 singers. We got the Luke Kelly song fairly early on, but still no Pete Seeger song well into the final stretch: so I started into "Where have all the flowers gone?" - the only one I could remember all the words of - and everyone joined in. Happy memories! Will be in Dublin again next March so hope to go back! And our fellas enjoyed the Guinness at very reasonable price! |
