04 Apr 05 - 06:11 AM (#1451498) Subject: Singer-Songwriter Forum From: sian, west wales trac (www.trac-cymru.org) is organizing a songer-songwriter day - "My Words, My Song" - on 2nd July at the Coliseum in Aberdare. Martyn Joseph is the 'headliner' on the day, but there will also be speakers dealing with the business end of things as well as sourcing historical information. (The whole day will be about singer-songwriters within traditional music.) It's open to all and you can get more information by phoning 01446 771470 or PMing me. Hope to see some 'Catters there! siân |

Mike is scheduled to appear on 10th Aug. Now will Mike Deavin be available, but then again, they will be all going to Broadstairs. O K Moses , you can come too. there it is isnt it? |

05 Apr 05 - 11:52 AM (#1452674) Subject: RE: Singer-Songwriter Forum From: sian, west wales Runer up? Sheesh, you're hardliners. We let our songwriters use the Roman alphabet as well as English and Welsh. I think I'd have a hard time drawing in the punters if they had to write in runes. But I am impressed ... siân |

Seems the thread has got a bit jumbled in the recent Mudcat Upsets but the sense is still there. The day will also have speakers from the National Museum of Wales and Community Music Wales to talk about sourcing historical material and various aspects of 'the business' of trad. music. sian |
