E-flurry & reply to a Crafty enquiry…
about the only contribution we can make, our repayment for what we are given ourselves, is the quality of our own work. so, that's straightforward & conceptually simple!

KEEPING THEIR ATTENTION

RE: RF’s 10/12 entry:
If you’re losing the audient after c. 20 minutes (which seems to be a recurring theme), is it possible (or even prudent ) to maybe shorten the length of the set (no reflection on the artist, of course) or perhaps find a ’filler’ to break up (for lack of a better word) the monotony?
On G3 (2004) the set length went from 40 to 30 to 20 minutes, without much change in audience reaction (boos & shouts of encouragement to leave). A prudent, and probably the only, course of action would be to replace this particular support act, rather than attempt to modify or curtail what they do. Let’s face it: Soundscapes aren’t welcome at pretty well most rock shows.

Lobby call for collection by Drummer bill at 19.25. We are going to Fremont Abbey to cheer loudly for
TTA .
22.39 Brother Bill arrived punctually & carried us to the TTA performance. The Team are endeavouring to find a relationship with their new & larger space, upstairs to their prior downstairs. The existing repertoire is not quite filling this space yet. All have my respect for their remarkable ongoing commitment & application to this project.
