It's Bringing music back to the grassroots

Rockin' Mashers

We had real problems posting our Blog update on the Ning sites last week. If you're experiencing the same sort of problems it is caused by some sort of conflict within IE 8 and the Java script / Flash components, and we have found that you can get around it by using Firefox as your browser.

Wow not only music but tech advice as well...........................

So after the quite week came the Rock and Roll week. You can find out all about it in our News Blog which you can get at by going to RSS corner of our Profile page here or by going HERE

I think we raise a lot of different issues this week, from Band dynamics and economics to the way that we find ourselves treated by different promoters and we raise that thorny issue, the word "Folk" and the affect it has on wider audiences...... I think you will know what we mean.

There's links to John McCullagh's EP page, where you can find out more about the man who wrote "Dance on Your Grave Mrs Thatcher" (A Masher type song if ever there was one).

News about the Rotherham Open Arts Festival - they've got Dave Swarbrick appearing mid week this year, and of course the big Rotherham Folk Club get together.

Links to the other News as well.

Flat Cap Folk also raises it's head.

Have a good week folks - and have fun whatever you are doing.
