Any problems finding a place to use them? Do any of you use a small device like a Palm instead of a portable computer? Can you find enough Internet Cafe shops to rent time as you go? What kind of account do you use? AOL? Hotmail? Something closer to home? How does this fit in with all you instruments and other stage gear? I may be doing more travelling this year (job related) and I'm curious about how you keep in touch.

I'm not a musician but work(ed) in radio and put the music together for a festival, so like to keep in touch for a variety of reasons when I travel.Any of the free e-mail accounts have limitations, but when they work seem to be decent. I had an account with www.yep.com until it wouldn't let me in. I've switched to HOTMAIL which seems to be ok so far. And more recently have switched again to www.Hawaii.com only because I love the place and want to go back. Also, there's www.music.com but I have no idea what their free e-mail is like. These accounts are used only when I'm away from home, and the people most likely to need to contact me know both the address and when I'll be away. It seems there are getting to be more and more internet cafe shops around....or maybe an understanding promoter or place where you're billeted (if you do that) might let you use their connection for a while. Provided you're using your own account, of course. Best wishes to all for a wonderful 2001.

From: Ian Angus Subject: MAPLEBLUE-L: Canadian Music Wanted This message came to another list I'm on ... --- One of the down sides of moving to a radio station in Kentucky is that I no longer have a handy library full of fine Canadian music. The good news is that I am now doing a weekly program at WMMT that features almost nothing but artists from the True North Strong and Free. It's called the "Double Double Radio Show" (meaningless to Americans eh?) and my stage name is "Tim Horton" (also meaningless to Americans.) What I now need, and I'm hoping that everyone can help - is music by Canadians. Any type is welcome, although WMMT tends to lean towards bluegrass, old time, folk, and punk. You can check out the first few playlists at http://www.community- media.com/doubledouble. WMMT is at http://www.appalshop.org/wmmt If you, or musicians that you know, can send me down some CDs they can mail them to: Barry Rueger WMMT-FM Appalshop Inc. 91 Madison Avenue Whitesburg KY 41858 So far the music that I've played has been very well received, and we're starting to build an audience for Canadian music. Please help us out. Note that there is almost no Canadian music down here, so CDs don't even have to be recent releases. Oh yeah - I've got someone who really wants a copy of the Wetspots' "From Beer to Paternity". Anyone know if it's still in print?

My friendly neighborhood server is great ( they even make housecalls when I'm in a techno-jam)- and when I'm on the road I don't mind making a brief long-distance call to retrieve and send messages.... my modem is fast enough now that i'm only on-line for seconds at a time... Just be sure you are in a hotel that doesn't have a large 'per-call' surcharge on long distance....The money I spend on long distance is more than saved by how reasonable my local guys are, and by the services they offer. By sticking with my local number, all my messages end up at the same place too, which saves some confusion...

Hi Gene, We've used a local company (Netaccess in Hamilton) since we've been online and we've had no problems. Like James' ISP people, our provider is always happy to help, they've even talked me through some meltdowns that had nothing to with with the service they provide. They've given us advice and arranged packages to suit us as our needs have changed. We've just got an DSL connection for our one computer and again, they really went out of their way to help us get set up. The connection is through Sympatico, but for support we call our provider which is infinitely better than trying to call Sympatico (if they're anything like calling Bell). And it's still all on the same bill, which is nice too (nicer if there was no bill at all I suppose but you know...). I've used Yahoo for years and have found it to be pretty good. As long as your connection is decent, it does the job. You can use it to read other accounts to, you just have to set it up in the options. It's not hard, I've done it.

This was a great story of the trenches, Gregg.  You asked:  p.s. ...do any of you have stories that involve similar 'backhanded
compliments'?...c'mon now, don't let your pride stand in the way...

I'll bet you that Tamarack have some wonderful moments to share...James?  Alex?  Isn't there one about a sign outside of a venue referring to hunters?

Happy New Year to all here,
Michele

...so I'm playing at Harbourfront on New Year's Eve...it's 15 below...the
wind is blowing across the stage...the stage heaters are ineffective, if
not totally useless...knowing this would be the case (I did the same gig
last year), I've left my guitars in the freezing cold for half an hour
before tuning them...

Unbelievably, they all stay relatively in tune throughout the set...the
band plays well, the crowd is a-boppin' like crazy in the ankle-deep
snow...even singing along (trust me on this one: this doesn't happen often
in Toronto)...before we know it, the set is over and we congratulate one
another (Tim Bovaconti, Steve Klodt and Craig Hunter) on not only having
survived, but having had a good time, in spite of the weather...

A teen, about 14, sneaks backstage...looks like he wants to yak. I ask him:
"So, how'd ya like that, bud?"

He counters with the ultimate pubescent compliment:

"You guys aren't that bad...if you like that kinda thing...maybe you'll get
to make a cd one day".

Uh huh.

Happy New Year, 'posters...

Gregg Lawless

p.s. ...do any of you have stories that involve similar 'backhanded

I agree with Mike's assessment. The Cancon report was made to understand which Canadian artists get airplay and where - other than in Canada. You must also understand, that when I began this list in 1994, there were very few radio stations reporting in Canada - I think Mike, Steve Wedge, David Pirie and I, and that's it. Not much to make a statement about. That has obviously changed since then.



steve fruitman


        It stands to reason, that with a population approximately 10 times the size of Canada, there would be approximately 10 times the number of folk shows in the U.S.  However, the playlists posted to FOLKDJ-L, from which Harry draws his information, probably represent only a small, and unscientific, sampling of all the folk shows that are out there.

        Also, the airplay of Canadian artists on Canadian folk shows has never been included on Harry's lists (or the ones that Steve Fruitman was doing before Harry).  I would venture to guess that, proportionately, there is more Canadian airplay on Canadian folk shows than on those from the U.S.

They enjoy the success of being two of the most regular working musicians on earth. They entertain in a wide variety of venues for an even wider assortment of audiences. With their roots firmly planted in tradition, their limbs freely explore the outer limits. Their engaging humor and musicality have made them popular in several circuits. Their ramblings have led them down the highways of Ontario, through the back roads of Britain, along the shores of the Maritimes and into the mountains of New York. They perform a traditional and original repertoire influenced by Celtic, Maritime and North American roots. " In the Greenbank area tickets are available at The Blue Heron Books in Uxbridge and Jayson Callan Music in Port Perry. If you are outside of this area you may be able to get tickets by calling (905) 985-8351 or (905) 852-7578. Please do not send email for tickets.

I do lots of stuff in schools for 12-14 year olds...who are, without doubt, the toughest crowd I've ever played for. When we're loading in, we often get asked: "Are you guys any good?" I always respond with a deadpan "...actually, we really suck, but they couldn't get anyone any good, so I guess we're playing..." I could be wrong, but I don't think that any of the Grade 6,7,8's think that I'm anything but serious. Luckily, after the show we inevitably hear: "We thought you guys were gonna really suck, but you weren't too bad". Once in a while, when the stars are aligned, we'll even get: "We thought you'd suck, but you rocked". Ggg p.s. In my initial post I neglected to add the final sweet piece of my New Year's evening...I rushed home after the gig...unloaded the equipment by 5 minutes before the "New Year"...then spent from 11:57 p.m., 2000 till 2:40 a.m., 2001 holding a screaming 9 day old baby. Hee haw! >This goes back some years to a rock group I was in. > >We were playing at the high school (whatever happened to the high school >dance with live bands anyway?) in Alliston, Ontario. > >We were tuning, getting ready for our second set, when a young man in a >full Gene Autry cowboy suit and 10 gallon hat wanders back stage and >says to Barry, our guitar player, "Do you guys do anything good"? > >Barry looked him in the eye and said "No. Just shit". > >The guy in the cowboy suit said "Thought so." and wandered away. > >It probably happens every day.

I had had the afternoon sound check experience of having all the pegs of my fiddle give way as they shrunk in the cold. So, for the evening I coated them in lipstick (a cheap substitute for that expensive peg dope they sell in violin stores, but, admittedly, a little messier) and powdered rosin which seemed to do the trick. We got through the gig and everybody sang and danced, it's true, but afterwards I was left with the funny feeling that it had all been a weird sort of dream. . . will get back to you on the backhanded compliments. The one that comes immediately to mind is when someone said I sang Yiddish with a German accent. Since I don't actually speak either language, it seemed pretty funny at the time.

The non-Canadian stations post about the same number of play lists in a month as Canadians do in a year. On average about 65% of the non-Canadian play lists have any Canadian content while 95% of Canadian play lists had Canadian content. The foreign folk shows average approximately 1.71 Canadian spins per show while Canadian folk shows average 6.01 Canadian spins per show. I'm sure the number of folk dj's who report to folkdj-l is small in relation to the number of folk shows out there but I think that would be true all over the world. Anyway, I think the numbers speak for themselves. We do 352% better at home than we abroad on a per play list basis. Thank you Canada.

I live in a fairly remote area, thousands of miles from other balladeers. I don't regret where I'm living, but I do regret not being able to share ballads with other balladeers. This is why I am so happy to be attending the FA Conference in February. On Saturday, February 17th at around 11:30pm, I will be hosting a ballad swap with Canadian long-time balladeer, Paddy Tutty, and a US balladeer icon, Margaret MacArthur. I am sure this swap will be a magical event for us all. If you are able to attend the FA Conference, and want to share in a piece of ballad heaven, look for my table (hosted by CeltArctic and Ceilidh Friends) in the Exhibition Hall. We shouldn't be hard to find--we will be the only Yellowknifers at the Conference.

They'll be at the Horseshoe on Wed Jan 24th --a show guaranteed to drive your winter blues away. For those who don't know --the North Mississippi Allstars are brothers Luther and Cody Dickinson (sons of the legendary producer Jim Dickinson), and bassist Chris Chew. This trio of twentysomethings bring modern rock "n" roll energy to the blues of the Old South. The North Mississippi Allstars' live show has been described as: Reminiscent of the power blues of 60s rock acts like Cream, Steppenwolf and Jimi Hendrix, but has the postmodern electricity of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and the exploratory lust of Jam bands like Phish and Widespread Panic. Their debut Album "Shake Hands With Shorty" released Sept., 2000 on True North Records has just been nominated for a Grammy --Best Contemporary Blues Album.

The article by Mitch Potter, Star feature writer, is on the back page of the Movies/Entertainment section today, page D12. It is also on-line (I understand probably only for today) at http://www.thestar.com/cgi-bin/gx.cgi/AppLogic+FTContentServer?pagename=thestar/Layout/Article_Type1&c=Article&cid=978671894864&call_page=TS_Music&call_pageid=968867496921&call_pagepath=Entertainment,Life/Music If this link doesn't work, go to http://www.thestar.com and choose entertainment/life and then music and it's the lead article (took a while for the actual article to come up). The full text is on-line, but not an illustration by Lisa Graziotto of Norm's CD in a basket at the bottom of some steps, with a note on the handle "Find a good home for my baby." "The Ache" was recorded with assistance from Ontario Arts Council and features many prominent Toronto folk musicians. The article invites anyone interested in adopting his CD to drop by the Tranzac (292 Brunswick Ave, Toronto) where Norm runs an open stage every Tuesday and "Norm's Living Room" every Saturday. Speaking of Tranzac evenings, none of the Tranzac music (except Sunday's Flying Cloud) is listed in the Toronto media this week - except NOW magazine which has WRONG information. The feature tomorrow (Saturday) is JASON FOWLER, an outstanding writer and award-winning fingerpicking guitarist who released his fantastic third CD, the all-instrumental "Big Hill, Little Hill" last month. For information on Jason and his first two CDs, "Hiss of Distance" and "Life is Rich", see http://www.interlog.com/~cpreal/coma/jason_fowler_store.html . On Tuesday January 9 open stage, the feature is LIKEWATER, a young duo who are getting gigs around town and will be releasing their first CD early in the new year. Check out the website at http://www.likewater.homestead.com (still building but some photos, etc.). Norm's evenings draw quality songwriters of all ages, so come reassure yourself that the outlook for the future of folk tradition is very healthy.

Fireweed is a wild perennial plant ranging from the arctic on down through the Rocky Mountains that flowers exquisitely in its second season. Fittingly, it is also the name of a cohesive folk trio that is based in the Kingston area. Fireweed's richly interwoven harmonies and guitar work are based firmly in the folk trio tradition. They have played the length and breadth of the province at all the premiere festivals and venues, like Summerfolk, Blue Skies, and the Ottawa Folk Festival. Fireweed's first  CD, self titled,  shows a triumvirate stretching out to connect to the heart and mind. While staying true to the music style. This is what makes them truly a unique group.

This posting provides some background re the history, the recording of airplay, and my own methodology including some long-term charts and records. The next will provide some stats on year 2000 airplay tallies and the final report will compare the Bryan and Gillmann reports and offer tallies of the most popular year 2000 Canadian songs and albums. Newcomers to the list should understand that I have been compiling monthly Canadian "top 10" airplay reports from Folkdj-l playlists since March 1996. From Mar. 96 to the end of Dec. 98 I compiled and submitted monthly reports to Folkdj-l, Maplepost and Cdnfolk-l. Harry Bryan now compiles and submits weekly charts of Canadian performer's airplay from playlists posted to Folkdj-l. Harry scans all non-Canadian playlists by eye to make up his lists and he tracks the number of consecutive weeks performers show up on his charts. Although I no longer post the results month by month, I have continued to use Harry's reports to make up my monthly surveys. My reports have followed the format of a "top 10 list" ranking those Canadian acts who got the most monthly airplay on non-Canadian playlists. The following example shows how I compile airplay month by month. The number on the left gives the top 10 ranking based on total airplay. In April there were no ties but these occur fairly often. "Total Plays" gives the number of airplays the performer got that month. The number under "March" gives the ranking for that act the previous month. The * under "This Year" the number of months in 2000 the act made the list. "Consecutive" lists the number of consecutive months the act has made the list. APRIL TOTAL PLAYS MARCH THIS YEAR CONSECUTIVE 1. Natalie MacMaster 60 5 **** 8 2. Joni Mitchell 35 3 *** 3 3. Stan Rogers 32 2 **** 18 4. Jory Nash 30 1 ** 2 5. Bruce Cockburn 27 *** 1 6. Eileen McGann 23 * 1 7. Night Sun 20 4 **** 6 8. James Keelaghan 17 *** 1 9. Garnet Rogers 16 8 **** 10 10. Ray Bonneville 14 6 ** 2 There is a shifting group of popular artists who can be expected to show up fairly regularly on the top 10. Here's the current "longterm top 10" based on 58 months of tracking airplay on Folkdj-l: Longterm Top 10: MONTHS 1. Stan Rogers: 55 2. James Keelaghan: 51 Joni Mitchell: 51 3. Bruce Cockburn: 49 4. Fred Eaglesmith: 45 5. Garnet Rogers: 37 6. Natalie MacMaster: 33 7. Lynn Miles: 31 8. Ferron: 30 Kate & Anna McGarrigle: 30 9. Loreena McKennitt: 28 10. Eileen McGann: 25 If this group consistently filled the list there would be little point in recording it. While it's interesting to note the ongoing popularity of these performers, of greater interest to me are the acts who break into the lists now and then or for the first time. I've learned about some very good performers and albums in this way. In the April list above, Jory Nash, Night Sun and Ray Bonneville are in this category. Monthly totals vary widely and the number needed to actually make the top 10 list can be subject to the whims of the month. October and November 2000 provided the extremes. The lowest monthly airplay needed to make the #10 spot was 8 (in October) and the highest needed to make the #10 spot was 25 (in November). The lowest monthly airplay needed to make the #1 spot was 21 (in October) and the highest #1 total was 81 (in November). Current monthly airplay records are as follows: Stan Rogers: 140 Dec. 99 Al Grierson 81 Nov. 00 Jory Nash 78 Mar. 00 James Keelaghan: 71 Apr. 99 Fred Eaglesmith 67 Nov. 97 Bruce Cockburn: 63 May 98 James Keelaghan: 62 June 99 Natalie MacMaster 60 Apr. 00 Garnet Rogers: 60 Aug. 99 Richard Gillmann has created a couple of programs to scan ALL Folkdj-l playlists although due to playlist formatting irregularities, he estimates he actually gets information from about 60% of all playlists submitted. His monthly charts are ranked by the most airplay for individual albums, plus ranked airpay tallies for the individual songs on those albums. Richard provides a year-end summary which details the most popular albums and songs and a chart of the most popular artists. Richard Gillmann's complete lists and summaries can be found online at . Harry and Richard have consented to my using their posted playlist information for the reports to follow, for which I offer a well-deserved tip of the hat for all their labour.

Within the lists there are always oddities, where an act has been singled out for a feature on one radio show. Over the long run though, airplay popularity of particular acts becomes obvious. It needs to be stressed that a number of Canadian acts, of folk festival mainstage, and Juno award nomination quality, do not get significant Folkdj-l airplay. As discussions on this issue have reinforced, the probable reason for this is that those performers, or their record companies, have not serviced U.S. folk radio stations. I expect that after the FA conference in Vancouver, a bunch of new Canadian acts will begin to show up on Folkdj-l playlists. In the list below, performers preceeded by a * made their first ever appearance (since March '96) in the top 10.

Different methodology and focus account for the discrepancies but, overall, the rankings are fairly consistent. The figures under # are the rankings performers earned on Gillmann's "Top Artists" chart. I selected only those performers gaining over 100 airplays from Harry Bryan's chart. Performers listed on the left, preceeded by a * are new to the list this year. Bryan # Gillmann Stan Rogers 349 37. Stan Rogers 263 Natalie MacMaster 287 47. Bruce Cockburn 245 Joni Mitchell 277 53.

Albums qualifying for this list had 68 or more airplays. There were no Canadian entries in Gillman's Top Songs list which featured 50 songs with 38 or more airplays. The Cry Cry Cry version of James Keelaghan's "Cold Missouri Waters" received 31 plays this year. This is an extremely popular song as it has appeared on the lists, in one version or another for five years. Given the volume of airplay after Al Grierson's tragic death I scanned Richard Gillmann's November chart to discover airplay for the song mentioned below. Songs preceeded by a * were also on the 1999 Top Canadian Song list. 1. Night Sun "Parrish Waltz" 27 2. Jory Nash "Acoustic In-Between" 22 3. Natalie MacMaster "Hey, Johnny Cope!" 21 Jory Nash "Seven Lions" 21 4. Jory Nash "Love No More" 20 Jory Nash "Tangle With The Ghost" 20 Night Sun "Harvey And Louise" 20 5. Night Sun "One Moment Of Grace" 19 6. Jory Nash "Seven & Out" 18 Neil Young "Good To See You" 18 Neil Young "Silver And Gold" 18 7. Al Grierson "Til The Circle Is Complete" 17 Neil Young "Buffalo Springfield Again" 17 8. Garnet Rogers *"Edge Of The Earth" 16 Garnet Rogers *"Under The Summer Moonlight" 16 9.

Once again, Richard Gillmann's complete lists and summaries can be found online at . The first number following the album title indicates the album's overall ranking in Richard's list. The second number in brackets indicates the number of plays received. The number following albums marked with ** indicates their ranking in last year's list. As might be expected these albums feature songs from the top song list above. 1. Jory Nash "Tangle With The Ghost" 31 (174) 2. Night Sun "One Moment Of Grace" 47 (142) ** 9 3. Naiman & Coole "5 Strings Attached Vol. 2" 49 (141) 4. Neil Young "Silver And Gold" 98 (107) 5. Grit Laskin "Unabashedly Folk" 101 (105) 6. Natalie MacMaster "My Roots Are Showing" 105 (103) 7.

Natalie MacMaster "In My Hands" 226 (65) ** 5 Until next year, that's it for my Canadian stats, my thanks again to Richard and Harry for continuing the count and, as always, my thanks to folk dj's everywhere for turning me on to some great music, Canadian and international that I might not have discovered otherwise. cheers, Vic - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From vicbell@telusplanet.net Sat Jan 6 05:42:12 2001 Date: Sat Jan 6 05:42:12 2001 From: Vic Bell vicbell@telusplanet.net Subject: [mplpost] GIG AB - Nickelodeon Music Club winter series Here are the upcoming shows at the Nickelodeon Music Club in Calgary.

I'm writing a bit of update about this very talented, young Winnipeg-based band. First, Jeremy Walsh, the group's guitar player, has decided to pursue a solo songwriting career and is currently working on new performance and recording endeavours. Best wishes to Jeremy! The band has a new guitarist, Prairie born and raised Lindsey Bart, who played with Scrüj MacDuhk a few years ago, and is back on the road with the group. Lindsey is a gifted player who draws inspiration from his family background in Ukrainian folk music and his love for traditional Irish folk music. In addition to his (beloved Morgan) guitar, Irish flute, banjo and mandolin are on the list of instruments you will catch Lindsey playing - and he's been known to play a tune on a Ukrainian nose flute as well! You may have heard Lindsey in his live performances and various recording projects with other fine artists including Ted Longbottom, Marty's Party, Daniel Koulack, Sam Baardman, Mangy Coyote, Ben Sures and John Skelton. Some other news is that the band's debut foray this past Fall into US folk radio has been a great success. Their Juno-nominated & Prairie Music Awards Winner CD, "The Road To Canso", enjoyed inclusion in the top airplay lists for November/December & for 2000, the latter being a considerable achievement since stations had the album since only late October. For those heading to the Folk Alliance conference in Vancouver, the group will be performing in two Manitoba Film & Sound Showcases. Hope you have a chance to see them live-they're an exciting band to watch [“Scrüj MacDuhk are like your own personal folk festival", James Keelaghan; “One of the best bands I've ever seen!”, Steve Earle]. They then head out for a southern US tour, and return to Canada in the spring to record their new CD for a summer release.

This is a brief update to let folks know what Tim Harrison's been up to. He's been a stranger lately to us Canadian folks while making new friends south of the border (this kind of free trade I like). And they've been more than welcoming - "In the spirit of the season, our neighbor to the north has sent us a musical gift...Tim Harrison's voice transports you to faraway lands, introduces you to something new, and draws you in..."(Worcester Phoenix, Massachusetts). While setting up Second Avenue's new studio this past Fall and preparing to record his new album, "Sarah And The Sea", the opportunity arose for Tim to produce and record Jim Layeux's new CD. Jim's "Red Dust", a collection of great songs to be released this month, came out beautifully. Now Tim is hard at it, resuming his work on "Sarah And The Sea" in between the upcoming performances. I'll write again with more information about the CD release, schedule updates & other developments. Take care, and keep warm!

Tainted award?

EVENT INFO WHEN: Wed Jan 24th WHERE: The Horseshoe TIME: 10:45 PM DOORS: 9:00 PM TICKETS: $8.50 (advance) $ 10.00 (door) For those who don't know --the North Mississippi Allstars are brothers Luther and Cody Dickinson (sons of the legendary producer Jim Dickinson), and bassist Chris Chew. This trio of twentysomethings bring modern rock "n" roll energy to the blues of the Old South. The North Mississippi Allstars' live show has been described as --reminiscent of the power blues of 60s rock acts like Cream, Steppenwolf and Jimi Hendrix, but has the postmodern electricity of the Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and the exploratory lust of Jam bands like Phish and Widespread Panic. There debut Album "Shake Hands With Shorty" released Sept., 2000 on True North Records has just been nominated for a Grammy. Tickets are on sale now at: The Horseshoe Box Office (416) 598-4226 Rotate This and Soundscape Prices are $ 8.50 in advance and $10.00 at the door.

Or at least I thought so. I just wanted to say that since Rick Whitelaw, possibly moved by his near-death experience Christmas day (a wheel came off their car as they drove along a GTA highway!), made such a generous offer of a FREE computer to any taker, that I would in turn point out that Rick's guitar cd is a stunningly gorgeous collection of tunes which everyone should have. Really, if you know him mainly as a player, working with people like me or in the pit at the Lion King, you won't know his original writing, which is really really fine. Well, I have to stop now cause I'm making myself gag. anyway, you can only get this cd from Rick, so here's the website address: (surprise surprise. ok, his tunes are more original than his website names,trust me.) yours relieved that the holidays are over, nancy white -- "If you can't be kind, at least be vague." - Miss Manners website: www.nancy-white.com management: Campbell Webster Entertainment (902) 566-3346 email David Malahoff at - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From manifest@sympatico.ca Mon Jan 8 17:17:08 2001 Date: Mon Jan 8 17:17:08 2001 From: Frank Vadala manifest@sympatico.ca Subject: [mplpost] Big Night on the Drive Hi everybody.

To refresh the readers....my husband is a singer/songwriter from Calgary and we are trying to book him tours (large or small) outside of Alberta. He grew up in Victoria and would like the opportunity to play in his native province (well, he was born in Florida but that's just too far away for now!). At this point we are looking at solo, acoustic shows to expand into band shows at a later date. He has been a musician for many years and has been doing his own thing for the past two years with much success here in Alberta (playing at festivals, folk clubs, cafe's, lounges, bookstores, corporate engagements, radio, TV shows, etc.) Thanks for the help once again!!

You said a mouthful here.  Judy Wilson worked so tirelessly and I know that everyone will miss her contribution and smiles where the OCFF are concerned.

There now certainly is a stellar board of directors and boundless energy, which will only drive the OCFF ever onward.

In the meantime, if I can help at all, especially during the many transitions, please just let me know.

then as office manager.  having read email at the ocff@icomm.ca address,
you can now reach judy privately at her kuehls@bmts.com email address.

- the OCFF board has engaged sudbury native (and now retired OCFF board
member) erin benjamin to pick up the OCFF duties, which we will identify
until the title, executive director.  you can reach erin at the
ocff@icomm.ca address, as of today.

- the OCFF brochure is in the final stages of completion, for distribution
at FAvancouver.  there are a number of changes in the OCFF festival
membership, including the additon of the *windsor celtic festival*,
*niagara folk arts festival* (st. catherines), *canterbury* (ingersoll),
*canadian songwriter festival* (guelph).

- the OCFF folk prints newsletter is in production under the direction of
incoming editior, celine audette / Celine.Audette@sympatico.ca

- the OCFF board is heading to sudbury for a strategic planning retreat
january 19-21, due in large part to the boundless energy of northern
advocate, erin benjamin and MFM (music and film in motion).

- the OCFF will sponsor a showcase in vancouver at the "really big night on
the drive", thursday, feb. 15, featuring kevin breit, jenny whiteley,
mighty popo, elizabeth hill and john millard & happy day, co-hosted by erin
benjamin and OCFF board member james gordon.

- the tenative date for the OCFF annual conference, designed in 2001 to
host the first ever folk alliance canada "folk meet", is *october 11-14*.
much more on that shortly.

- the OCFF board is made up of warren robinson (pres), my-self (vice), ian
davies (sec), patricia sibley (treasurer), carolyn sutherland (exec), ken
whiteley, james gordon, randi fratkin, celine audette, al rankin, chris
white, jennifer ives, lillian wauthier and robin macintyre.  (yes, it's a
female majority!)

- and while i'm a firm believer in the motto, "my ontario includes
toronto", i'm delighted that the above group represents sault ste. marie,
north bay, ottawa, perth, clarendon, guelph, london, goderich, barrie and
orillia.

- randi frantkin, ocff internet cte. chair has overseen the development of
a dedicated listserv for OCFF artistic directors, representing festivals in
brampton, tottenham, toronto, london, sudbury, orillia, collingwood,
guelph, perth, clarendon, cambridge, hamilton, goderich, ear falls, burk's
falls, owen sound, pefferlaw and ottawa, plus our new members.

- the ocff website will be updated asap, but as you can see, we're dealing
with a number of changes, all at once.

regards,

Jan. 27/01 Time: 8pm Place: The Birch Cliff United Church, 33 East Rd. at the corner of Kingston Rd. & Warden Ave. in east end Toronto Admission: $12/$10 with membership/half price for those of limited means Info: 416-264-2235 ___________________________________________________________ Acoustic Harvest is proud, and fortunate, to have this veteran of the North American folk and blues circuit as our first performer of the New Year. For 15 years he was a member of Jackson Delta, gaining recognition from both the Juno and Handy Awards. He has played for legendary blues piano player Pinetop Perkins, songstress Colleen Peterson, and many others. Rick is also a multiple Maples Blues award winner in the Acoustic Blues category. Known for his understanding and in-depth knowledge of blues, finger-style and bottleneck guitar, Rick is making a name for himself as a talented songwriter as well. He has played as a solo performer and has toured extensively in Europe and North America in support of his highly acclaimed releases, "Arcadia" and "Out of the Living Room"; his latest, new release, "Live at the Harvest" was recorded live at the Fredericton Harvest Jazz and Blues Festival in September, 2000. Rick's original compositions are fresh, yet steeped in blues tradition, conveying strong echoes of the masters of folk and blues. Following a summer of festivals and folk and blues camps across North America, Rick has lately been accompanied by pianist Rob Phillips and stand-up bass player Richard Simpkins. Their concert and festival appearances have received rave reviews. We are pleased to have booked him, considering his busy schedule of concerts, festivals and guitar workshops. If you managed to see him the last time he performed at our club you will surely not want to miss his new trio. If you are new to his music, you'll want to find out why we've brought him back for a second Acoustic Harvest appearance.

Regulars know the drill - TUESDAY night is OPEN STAGE - come sign up to do a couple of songs, bring recordings and announce gigs if you have them. SATURDAY is "NORM'S LIVING ROOM" when Norm plays more and invites performers up to do short sets, often with a joint song swap at the end. Both evenings have feature performers. Since there is no cover, we pass a basket for contributions that go to the feature. The best part is the quality of music and the sense of community that has developed. In fact, many of the features drop in other evenings to do short sets, just because it's a great time. Sat Jan 13 - EDDIE BALTIMORE, leader of trio Slowpoke, sings and plays guitar, slide guitar and dobro, with influences as diverse as Muddy Waters, Bo Diddley, Townes van Zandt, any Louisiana music, world music and Tennessee Williams. Maybe he'll play some of the songs he has written for health movies, feature films and driver traning tapes! Too-rare appearance of a very talented performer. Tues Jan 16 - IN BLUE RIVER, the very talented duo Cristina and Devon combine fingerstyle bluegrass/jazz guitar with the emotionally charged beautiful vocals of a classically trained singer in a continuous fusion of sounds and styles. "An acoustic blend of folk, rock, blues, country, hillbilly, vanilla and coconut." They've definitely gained fans with appearances at Norm's open stage. http://www.mp3.com/inblueriver . CANCELLED on Sat Jan 20 - No Norm's Living Room since the 10th annual CHRIS LANGAN weekend uses all the space at the Tranzac (info at 416 410-9370 or http://www3.sympatico.ca/kelly.hood/Langan.html). IAN NORTH, has graciously agreed to a new date of MARCH 3. Tues Jan 23 - LENORE, an enthusiastic performer of original songs, has just been reviewed as "Bluesy, folk-rock with the songwriting skills of Dylan and the voice of Rickie Lee Jones" at http://www.geocities.com/threewishesrecords/lenore.html . She regularly makes the treck from Oshawa. See http://www.lenore.com for info and song samples from her CD. Sat Jan 27 - FIRST ANNIVERSARY OF NORM'S LIVING ROOM, merits a big party, so we have SIX special guests - BOB SNIDER and an invasion of five folkies from the Orangeville area (in return for Norm, Marianne Girard and Michael Laderoute going north). The features: BOB SNIDER, well known completely unique one-of-a-kind world-class song crafter with several CDs, also one of the first four inductees into the Tranzac's songwriters wall of fame (for songwriting excellence and contribution to the local/world community of songwriting). He writes songs you love to hear again and again. WAYNE KING, operator of Acoustic Traditions music store and concert/seminar organizer, is also a multi-talented performer who will liven the night with songs of folk and bluegrass heritage on guitar and banjo. HEATHER KATZ has toured small town Canada as a feature performer and back up singer. You've heard her powerful voice and lovely phrasing at Norm's evenings solo and as a duo with Marianne Girard. Happy to hear she's headed for the recording studio soon. RUSSELL SCOTT's quirky sense of humor, deft lyrics and outstanding guitar playing have given him a strong following at home, and are sure to delight. MICHAEL GRIFFIN has been performing for 22 years. Michael's love for old folk songs, and clever lyrics frequently surprise those who have only seen him in a corporate management role. JEREMY WOODLAND has been wowwing audiences for two years and was featured at Mariposa festival this summer as one of the "hot handed" guitar players. He'll be sharing songs from his first CD. Tues Jan 30 - GREG HOBBS is a rising young Toronto-based singer/songwriter whose short open stage sets have shown him to be an impressive writer and performer. Sat Feb 3 - NORMAN LIOTA, a fine songwriter writer and guitarist, returns. His CD is "A Strange Voice". He recently returned from a very successful tour in the US midwest, and is planning another tour in the US. Check his website at http://www.unscenemusic.com Tues Feb 6 - TREVOR STRONG, one of the three Arrogant Worms, has been dropping in to try new material on us - lucky us! He had us all wearing out the laughing muscles with just two songs at last Tuesday's open stage. Sat Feb 10 - DAVE KING is a welcome performer at Toronto's open stages with his fine songs and voice. TUESDAYS from Feb 13 onward - TBA: we'll be there, just haven't scheduled the features yet. And we're on a strong run, so stay tuned. Sat Feb 17 - LARRY NUSBAUM - get in the rootsy groove with his guitar and conga playing and original songs, a favourite who brightens a lot of faces by walking in the room. Be prepared to sing/groove/percuss along - great therapy and lots of fun. Sat Feb 24 - BOB SNIDER, long a Toronto folk scene favourite returns for a solo feature (also one of our January 27 anniversary celebration features). Sat Mar 3 - IAN NORTH - Norm describes Ian as a "songwriters' songwriter" and really loves what he does. Great opportunity to catch him. TEASER: late March and April we have some great performers from outside Ontario who are including Norm's evenings on their tours. CBC radio one is currently scheduled to air a short piece by Cate Friesen on Norm's offer of his newest CD "The Ache" for adoption, as reported in The Toronto Star January 5th (and posted here), and some of the initial reaction on Tuesday morning (16th). TRANZAC WEEK AT A GLANCE (email springer@idirect.com to get on weekly notice list): SUNDAY Jan 14 8 pm. - Dottie Cormier Band featuring Chris Coole, Andrew Collins and Victor Bateman (old-time country style music) $10 at the door, 416 410-3655 for info (see Rana's posts for details of the Sunday Flying Cloud series); no Flying Cloud on January 21.

Wye Marsh brought great folk music music to a lot of people who don't ever hear that genre, and brought a lot of great folkies to the Marsh to meet people they might not ordinarily meet.

I recall hearing James Keelaghan and Oscar Lopez, as well as Fred Eaglesmith for the first time there. Discovering that music with meaning had such a forum in which people could appreciate it fully and allow themselves to be spellbound was a major moment for me as a teen... it was also, along with the Mundy's Bay folk society, among my first clues to the fact that it was possible to earn a living as a folk performer... Obviously, it gave our community unique access to exceptionaly talented performers... but I believe it also ralied a number of people to the cause of preservation who might not otherwise have been motivated to help... I think it's unfortunate that there was no way to stay afloat... It troubles me to think that this festival will go the way of Songs of Sail and Bayside which were great initiatives but did not seem to achieve the stability they deserved... I must also admit, although I'm now living in Ottawa, that it was a great opportunity for local performers to get on that stage and strut their stuff for many who would not otherwise have suspected their talent... en bref, mes condoléances les plus sincères, c'est une perte pour la communauté et pour l'industrie.

News that there will no longer be a Wye Marsh Festival is sad indeed. I'll echo Paul Mills' thoughts by saying it was one of the friendliest, well run and pleasent of the summer fests. From a musical standpoint there were plenty of chances to form instant harmonies, jams and spontaneous bands because of the size and informal nature of the weekend. Another plus was that the festival took place in September and for many of us was the final event of the summer. Many thanks to all the hard working volunteers who were always helpful and made we performers feel most welcome. If we can help you with any future plans don't hesitate to call.

It's a one hour avant-garde soundscape called "A Rose In Snow" - I composed it through a very unusual collaborative process with the renowned choreographer Sarah Jane Burton. She staged the work without music, videotaped it- and I wrote music to match the movements. for tickets call 519-763-3000 www.riverrun.guelph.ca February 10th-- The Nickolodeon, Calgary, with Tanglefoot.

You don't get too much feed back on these things. It makes the years, time and effort all worthwhile when you hear things like this. I may be the one who says the most on these forums and sends out the silly promotional stuff but there were, at the end, five members of the committee who worked very hard to put that festival together. Keith Tippin and Dave Ward were the stalwarts. They have been with it since the beginning. Myself, Neil Evans and Eric Rothwell sort of floated on their coattails. . We were an unusual committee in that we didn't really have an Artistic Director. Everything was decided democratically when it came to talent. It wasn't easy that way but, we all felt we contributed. Personally it was a hoot while it lasted I'll miss the hard work and aggravation.

I had the pleasure of attending 3 concerts this past weekend, all deserving some note. On Fri. (12th), a large audience helped Big Gravel celebrate the release of their new CD at the Flying Cloud/Tranzac club. The all instrumental show was very impressive. With superb performances by fiddler Marion Linton, mandolinist and debut fiddler, Andrew Collins, guitarist Joey Wright and stand up bassist Andrew Downing, this foursome displayed a sophisticated knowledge and expertise in their eclectic selections of original tunes. This music is a mixture of many styles and genres, bluegrass or newgrass, swing, jazz, classical and certainly cross-overs and blends that end up giving the music it's inherent and definitive uniqueness. The tunes are both complex and simple, containing so many different elements and layers and all delivered with passion and great expression. I had a different experience listening to this music, a sense unlike that of hearing most songs as a contained whole; that is, I think in many cases we listen to an instrumental or song (and I realize that they are not the same) basically as a whole piece, with many interesting components, verses, sections etc. and we come away thinking 'that was a good song or tune, it told a story that grabbed my attention'. But with this music I found myself hearing it as a landscape of such vibrant color and texture, with each few strains of music leading me along a path of discovery and just when you think you know where you're headed, you round a corner, the path dips and you're surprised by another corner and another and another and gee, I thought I was at the end of the path way back there.....the path demands that you pay attention to each small detail along the way.....so too, here you're caught up in listening intently to each separate note as it takes ahold of you and shows you something new. I have to say that I was surprised by this, as although I always listen to each note, each nuance in live performance, this was something different. And with unusual titles like: "Toronto Turkey", "This One's For Balzac", "Hassan Soup", "Farm Show Ghost", "Hosegrass" you know you're in for a real journey. Hopefully "Bingo", my favourite, will be on the next CD! For this self titled CD, Chris Quinn has written some of the best liner notes I've ever read. Sat.(13th) Off I went to the Greenbank Folk Club in a lovely old church with warm wood tones and old guitars, mandolins and banjos lining the walls surrounding the stage. Aengus Finnan was in fine form as the opening act for Mark Haines and Tom Leighton. Aengus is continuing to grow and mature as a performer of fine, original, historical, often tragic tales of Canadian people and events. His performance was highly polished and delivered with great passion and drama; each time he sings it's as if he's giving us the story for the very first time. He has that heightened sense of the actor, the flare of the story-teller and that heartfelt belief in the need for the stories of ordinary people to be told and heard. Many of these stories are wrenchingly sad and sung with a voice that depicts the soulful and mournful cry of longing in our collective human conscientiousness. Aengus is careful not to overwhelm us with too much doom and has added some wonderful, up-lifting singalongs to his repetoire. He's embarking on a 65 day, 42 city tour; his audiences certainly are in for a special treat. Mark Haines and Tom Leighton always exude a great joie de vivre in their performances and tonight was no exception. Tom is a powerhouse one man band (if he wanted to be); he sings and plays bodhran, keyboards/synthesizer and some kind of souped up accordian which I think was supplying a good backup bass sound; Mark is excellent on the fiddle and the majority of the lead vocals. Bill Usher joined them to provide some solid and complimentary percussion. Tony Burns played a Cabasa shaker which gave a nice sound on a couple of numbers. Their music almost defies description but with some interesting props and music ranging from many unusual originals to celtic, gospel, contemporary, bluegrass, vaudville and swing influences - and great exciting polkas! - their music is in a class all it's own. Their phenomenal energy, vivacity, charm, breadth of vision and consummate musicality results in one of the most exciting and mesmerizing shows you'll ever hope to see and hear. Their enthusiasm and love of music is so encompassing and pervasive that the audience is swept up in a contagion of joy - many in the packed house had never heard them before and there were constant looks of incredulity on peoples' faces and exclamations of wonder and amazement. With standing ovations and double encores, Tom & Mark invited Aengus back on stage and finished off the evening with the gospel song "I'll Fly Away" and a rousing rendition of "Will The Circle Be Unbroken", with everyone standing, singing along and being thoroughly transported. We got back to Toronto at 2am, but who could go to sleep, when you're so pumped and high! On the other hand, one might argue, you're exhausted by their overwhelming energy! However you react, this music courses through your veins and sure makes you feel alive. Sun. (14th) Last night I went out to hear the Dottie Cormier band at The Flying Cloud Folk Club. The music was very laid back and mellow, a departure from some of the hard driving bluegrass material that Dottie has often been a part of in the past. With Dottie on vocals and guitar, (J P Cormier's old one, no less!), Chris Coole on banjo, guitar and vocals, Andrew Collins on mandolin, the inestimable Victor Bateman on standup bass and vocals and Burk (sorry missed the surname) on dobro and pedal steel, the band gave a well rounded, solid evening of mostly Country originals by Dottie, some by Chris, (Jewel In The Crown is going to be my frequent request!), with a few bluegrass tunes thrown in to the mix. Dottie's writing and vocal skills have grown immeasurably over the past couple of years. Her songs are thoughtful and sensitive and show a wisdom which belies her young years. My only gentle criticism of this band as well as of Big Gravel and a number of others, is that they need to work on their stage presence; to participate with and to engage their audiences to a greater degree (as do Aengus, Tom and Mark). All in all, a very interesting, enjoyable and enlightening weekend of music - music that fills your soul! Lillian ----------------------------------------------------------- Lillian A.

Ballet British Columbia, one of Canada's leading ballet companies, is celebrating the new millennium with the most ambitious artistic endeavour in its history. The Faerie Queen, a full-length ballet choreographed by Artistic Director John Alleyne, will tour to the Playhouse Theatre, Centre for the Arts Brock University, St. Catharines, Ontario on Saturday, February 10 at 8 PM. The Faerie Queen, Alleyne's first full-length story ballet, is inspired by Shakespeare's exuberant and joyful tale, A Midsummer Night's Dream. For the ballet, Owen Underhill and Michael Bushnell have adapted the music of Henry Purcell's opera of the same name. The ballet features shifting and changing sets by renowned artist Darren Waterston, spectacular costumes, and innovative lighting and projections that transport the audience into the fairies' enchanted forest. The Faerie Queen promises to be a magical journey that celebrates the imagination with gorgeous, riveting dance. The creation of The Faerie Queen is a reflection of Ballet British Columbia's commitment to dance education and audience development. Suitable for smaller venues, The Faerie Queen is ideal for touring. Lovable characters and visual impact make the ballet appealing to adult and young audiences alike. Ballet British Columbia also involves young people in the performance of The Faerie Queen. In St. Catharines, two young dancers from Ballet Etc. Studio for the Arts will dance the parts of The Changelings. Ballet British Columbia has earned an international reputation for its signature performance style, innovation, creativity and risk-taking. The company's focus is on the creation of new, contemporary dance that stretches the boundaries of classical ballet.

Robinson Crusoe is about to set sail for England after being stranded on an island for nearly 30 years. Before he leaves, he will tell the tale of how he arrived on the island. On Sunday, February 18th at 2:30 PM in the Sean O'Sullivan Theatre, Centre for the Arts Brock University, St. Catharines, Ontario, the Centre for the Arts presents Axis Theatre Company's theatrical production for young audiences, Robinson Crusoe. Robinson Crusoe tells the tale of a young Englishman blown off-course and shipwrecked on a remote island near Trinidad. Setting his course for survival, Robinson Crusoe adapts remnants of his shipwreck into a tropical home, making his own clothes and domesticating the local animals. Crops spring up as if by magic and Crusoe thrives alone ... until one day he encounters a new arrival on the island and his life changes forever. Adapted by Colin Heath and Michael Wolski, Robinson Crusoe is retold for young audiences. Using life-size magical puppets, original music and an imaginative set, a story of survival and self-discovery is brought to life on stage. Daniel Defoe's enduring story explores issues of hope, survival and the need for human companionship. Critics love Robinson Crusoe: "Kids of all ages squeal with delight at the tricks and illusions bursting out of every nook and cranny." - The Leader, Surrey, BC "It was so wild that the thrilled shrieking of the audience very nearly drowned out the cued sounds of howling wind. Good kids' shows clearly remember what many adult entertainers forget: theatre is about making up wondrous stuff; it's about pretending." - The Georgia Straight, Vancouver, BC Vancouver-based Axis Theatre Company is recognized as a creative leader in theatre for young audiences. Reserved seating for Robinson Crusoe is $8 for all seats. Tickets may be purchased using VISA and MasterCard from the Box Office, Centre for the Arts Brock University by calling (905) 688-5550, ext. 3257.

The show starts at 7 PM with opening act Ricky J. Lifelong friends Trevor Guthrie, Ken Lewko, and David Bowman began collaborating in Vancouver in 1994 when singer/songwriter Bowman joined songwriting multi-instrumentalists Lewko and Guthrie. The only thing the trio found difficult was trying to describe the result of their collaboration - a contemporary sound influenced by the varying shades of rock, soul, hip hop, and electronica that make up the pop scene. The first fruit of soulDecision's labour, the acclaimed single "Tonight", established the distinctiveness of Guthrie and Bowman's velvety twin vocals. The song ultimately led to a record label bidding war and the creation of the trio's romantic debut album No One Does It Better. Nominated for Best Dance/Hip Hop release at the 1997 Pacific Music Industry Awards, the trio gained national attention and an international audience when they appeared on MuchMusic's live 1998 New Year's Eve Party in Toronto. Snapped up by Universal Music Canada for international release, the band first went to Los Angeles to hone their songwriting skills. A lunch meeting with hot Australian producer Charles Fisher (Savage Garden, Ace Of Base) led the band to complete their debut album in Australia. The result? No One Does It Better is all about style, funk and attitude. soulDecision's reluctance to pick a niche to the exclusion of all others led to the group's original name, Indecision. One thing the guys do agree on is what their songs are all about. Bowman says, "We write what we want to write and if that means we write a rock song, or an up tempo dance track, then we do." Lewko adds, "As long as it's about a girl..." Reserved seating for soulDecision is $28.50 for all seats.

As my grade nine math teacher used to say, hello, seekers of the undefined concept, This is to let you know that Marie-Lynn Hammond and I, Nancy White, will be doing our vaguely annual Mariposa double bill at the Flying Cloud on Sunday, Feb.4. Now I know we are both a little whiney, but I personally am promising you a hearty, chuckling demeanour on this occasion. The other day I was driving my daughters to their dad's house, and Droola (not her real name) said to me, almost in despair, "you and Nutrasweet (not her real name) just complain all the time and frankly it's kind of depressing." "She's right," I said to myself, and I made a resolution to change. If a mbank can change, ha ha as if, surely a msinger can do the same. So I swear I'll be a jolly camper at the Flying Cloud. I can't speak for Marie-Lynn, but I'm sure she'll be swept along by the general atmosphere of joy. We will have the two wacky genius keyboard guys Bob Johnston and Tom Leighton playing with us, so, really, how bad can it be? The Flying Cloud is in the Tranzac Club, 292 Brunswick Ave, a little south of Bloor. Doors open at 7.30, we start at 8.00, tickets are $14 ($12 for Mariposa members), and you can get more information (price of picked eggs at bar?) from (416) 410 FOLK.

Formed 10 years ago to originally play the tunes of Louis Prima (hence the name) they now put wonderful jump jive spins on all kinds of iconic tunes from the rhythm and blues and pop pantheon (never thought I'd use that word on Maplepost). I saw them at the Silver Dollar a few weeks back and the smile never left my face all night long. In the old tradition, this is a great dance band. If you go, buy the CD too. It was recorded live off the floor (no editing, no overdubs) and it just positively crackles. My 15 year old came out of his room while I was playing it for friends and he asked to borrow it. He's now playing it non-stop too. Enjoy, Bill ------- Chelsea Inn Hotel on Gerrard between Yonge and Bay. They're in the Monarch Lounge sets at 9:30, 10:50 and 11:50 tomorrow, Friday and Saturday. -- - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From runmountain@hotmail.com Wed Jan 17 09:59:02 2001 Date: Wed Jan 17 09:59:02 2001 From: thomas parker runmountain@hotmail.com Subject: [mplpost] All aboard the gravy train!!! ****************************************************************** THE BACKSTABBERS AT TORONTO'S "THE CLOAK & DAGGER" JAN 19th & 20th ****************************************************************** Crazy-assed rounders "the backstabbers" have recently been appointed chief brakemen on the gravy train called "O Brother Where Art Thou?', and as such will be stopping to "take on water" at Toronto's newest roots-friendly pub "The Cloak And Dagger" this Friday and Saturday night from 10pm - 2am.

I thought I'd revive an old thread with Folk Alliance around the corner.

When travelling I accessed my POP-mail account with Hotmail (thank you Microsoft). When I found that Hotmail wasn't reliable everywhere I started a Yahoo account to access my POP-mail. Anywhere you go there is a free web-based server that can connect with you POP-mail account. That way all mail flows through your POP-mail account and your mail archive stays intact. I choose to 'leave mail on server' and 'only show unread messages' when accessing from Hotmail.

Also, I have re-routed all listservers to Hotmail accounts so I don't have to look at copious amounts of mail unless I choose to. 'Keeper' messages from listservers get forwarded to the POP account.

Works for me.

Simon

I'm writing on behalf of Erin Benjamin and Dick van Raadshooven from Ontario who will be performing a showcase at Tony's, 1046 Commercial Drive as part of the Really Big Night On The Drive, Thurs. during FA. Dick can't fly with his bass and is looking to beg, borrow or rent one for a couple of days while in Vancouver (they arrive on the 10th). His wish list is a carved top with a jazz set-up, and possibly an amp to go with it...he'll supply his own pick-up and bow . He'd love to have it for a couple of days before the showcase and could return it Thursday night at after 10pm or Friday morning. For those of you who don't know his playing...he's exceptional, and would take the greatest of care of any instrument in his possession (we can put you in touch with people who know his playing if you may be wary). If you, or someone you know might have an acoustic bass and amp he could use, could you please email privately and let us know your 'terms and conditions' and what kind of bass you have? We would be forever in your debt, and would *happily* return the favour to anyone needing equipment/help in North Eastern Ontario while on tour, etc. We would also commit to naming all future pets and plants after you and your family members.....:-).

All year long I had been planning on attending, but with an impending new recording (and it's accompanying four figure cost) and not enough potential income inflow over the next few months I had to make the decision that although the Folk Alliance has much to offer, teach and enjoy I simply cannot afford it. (Man, that was a long sentence. Re-read it: It's brutishly long.) It has been argued to me, and eloquently so, that one cannot afford to NOT go to Folk Alliance, from the viewpoint of making invaluable connections and laying groundwork for future bookings. Certainly the potential is there to further one's career considerably. But one has to measure potential against available funds. Anecdotally, I attended NERFA and enjoyed myself tremendously. I may have even laid the groundwork for future bookings, but to this date I have not been able to secure one gig from any connection made there. Frustrating? Yes, but I still feel it was worth the money spent to attend my first Alliance, and to feel a part of a terrific grassroots musical community. I hope that those who are attending the Vancouver Alliance will likewise enjoy their experiences. I also must admit that the size of the big Alliance frightens me. I was unable to meet all the delegates I had hoped to meet at NERFA, a 600-person event in one hotel. I don't think I'm quite ready to tackle the big Alliance properly without one more NERFA under my belt. But again, as with so many things the main problem is money. I'm honestly not sure I have enough to properly record my new CD and that frightens me more than not being able to afford attending the Folk Alliance. I'd love to know if there are others in the folk community, from club owners to music presenters to other artists like myself who are seriously considering throwing in the towel because they can't make anything close to a viable living. My own philosophy about money and art is that art suffers when the artist spends more time worrying about how to make a living than they do making their art. I've been giving a lot of thought to quitting making music for a period of 10 years or so, to build enough wealth so that when I returned I would be able to create my art relatively financially burden-less, hopefully present quality music of a highest personal calibre. These are the thoughts that go through my head on the bad days. One day I will get to attend the big Folk Alliance, even if it's just as a fan of folk music and not simply as an artist, competing with my breatheren for the same gigs and accolades and attention. Many times, late at night when I can't fall asleep for worrying, it's the option of the former that I think I'd prefer.

Yes - both Hotmail and Yahoo provide the option of getting mail from your home account. Just go to their 'options' page or 'POP account' page or whatever they call it. You can leave the mail on the server so you can archive it when you get home.

My original plan was to let listserve messages pile up in a hotmail account and then I could forward them to my home account. However you can only forward them one at a time from Hotmail. I don't keep that many messages from Maplepost (not that interested in gig announcements) however I did get into the habit of archiving playlists and maybe once a week do a keyword search for artists I'm interested in. Tough to do from hotmail.

I, as I'm sure, many of us. sympathize with your situation. We have probably all been there. For what it's worth: - In my experience, it gets harder to go back full time 10 years later, not easier. You generally have more expenses and less time, unless you entirely avoid the idea of having children, furniture, a decent place to live etc. If you have kids (or even if you don't) you may also not want to travel as much. . . Also people have forgotten you and you will be starting all over again to establish yourself. - A workable compromise for a lot of people is to find some way to supplement your income to take the pressure off, but keep your performing carreer going. That involves it's own mental gymnastics, but keeps you there as a name and a presence. - I have been luckier than most, I believe, combining some teaching with related musical passions, like setting up non-profit organizations which were, for a time, funded to the point where I could partly support myself, to having at least some lucrative local work in certain cultural genres, such as Jewish and Celtic music. You have to be in a fairly large urban centre for that and you have to be willing to be a "jobber" occasionally for family and corporate events. As you can imagine, it all becomes very tricky to keep your centre and focus on what really matters. It would be interesting to hear how many musicinas on this list have maintained themselves over what period of time solely on performing, album sales etc. , and if not, how they have worked it out.

NO- I don't think you have to show up every year at the Folk Annoyance.... it Does cost a lot of money-- and if you've already been to NERFA you are still making a good effort to keep up your profile in the folk community.. how bout every other year? Regarding your career musings- music is a bit like farming--- some years the crops are gonna fail no matter what you do....( though in music sometimes you plant a seed somewhere and it takes five years to grow!) I believe the solution is the same in both professions-- Diversify! I think that artists often spend all their efforts focusing on 'gigs' when there are other creative ways to do music and get paid for it. I just finished my year-end books-- so i can share some interesting stats with you. Though I felt busy doing the standard "folk gig" circuit last year--- this only accounted for 28 percent of my income.. If I had to rely solely on "gigs" I'd be out of business fast.... Almost all the other sources of income I have can, however, be attributed to the profile i get from "gigging"- I think that of all the things I do- gigging pays the worst. I only do it cuz I'm addicted to it... CD sales were another 28 percent, Producing albums for other artists- 14 percent, Songwriting Workshops in schools ( a good angle for any songwriter out there)- 10 percent- Royalties 7 percent; film and video scores 7 percent, radio work 6 percent. The variety keeps me from getting burned out, I'm not ALWAYS on the road, and I know that if soybeans is bad this year, the corn just might get me through..... the sum total adds up to a so-called living. So Jory, my free advice is -- don't get out- spread out! james - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From psibley@finplus.com Fri Jan 19 11:44:51 2001 Date: Fri Jan 19 11:44:51 2001 From: Patricia Sibley psibley@finplus.com Subject: [mplpost] Re: Songs about a new baby.. 0100,0100,0100Cats in the Cradle................. = Harry Chapin { SEQ CHAPTER \h \r 1}Family Tree........ = Tom Chapin Winken, Blinken & Nod ......Fred Penner Yes Sir, You=92re My Baby......

An interesting thread, I'd like to join in too, for what it's worth ;) I have been on the admin side of the music business for just over a year now, as the GM of Prairie Music Alliance. The first six months were part time, but since April 1999 it has been full time. The job came along at a time when my music career was at a low (in my eyes): after touring to support a not-so-well received second cd, I was frustrated, broke, and relying on my partner for support (something she did without too much complaint, but it was tough on her pocketbook and our relationship). I was also in the midst of a writer's block of sorts, not writing anything that I thought was worthwhile, and really, how many more songs do we need about having no money, being depressed, nobody loves me, I'm so blue...(ok, maybe we'll always need those songs, but mine were AWFUL). Now I earn a decent living, having treated myself to some of the luxuries I previously could not afford (vcr, cd player, food, clothing, shelter) and have just about bought a house. I have a credit card, can apply for a mortgage and even a blockbuster card without feeling like a worthless piece of society. Throughout all of this, I have played very little, written nothing and have missed it all slightly. Things like tours with friends, applause and praise are some of those missed elements, along with that great feeling after you've written a really good song. But really, I'm no worse for wear. My partner is certain that I will return one day and perhaps I will. I have a few showcases at the upcoming FA that will put my face and music in front of those who choose to be there. I must start practicing for that... My current job is ok, I do well at it. It's not my passion, however. I remember the days of being so absorbed in music that I would work at it from waking to sleeping, 14 to 18 hours a day. Writing at the drop of a hat (or pick, as the case may be). Playing in some of Canada's finest folk festivals. But the worst part of being a musician, or a singer/songwriter, for me was the constant search for approval from strangers; the horrible feeling of rejection when my cd was not played, accepted, written favourably about, written about at all. The jealousy that I felt when others (who I didn't think were nearly as talented as I ;> ) received higher praise, more gigs, than I did. The constant feeling that I was banging my head against a wall. I know there is a "market" out there for me. I know that many people enjoyed (and still enjoy) my music. I just can't keep feeling like a failure. And yes, that's my own problem. I cannot continue to live like a pauper. I have to admit that I want things - house, car, food, clothes. Having another job to support my habit doesn't work for me, as I concentrate to heavily on the job and then can't find the time to work on the music. The funny thing is, now I can go to all these events because if my work doesn't send me, I can at least afford to go! Isn't that ironic? This long rambling is really to say, "Hey Jory, hey everyone, persevere." It's a really tough business, I wish you all the luck in the world.

I was at your showcase at NERFA - the response to your performance and the witty stories in between songs was fantastic. And while airplay doesn't often result in a gig right when you need it, your CDs are getting a lot of attention on folkdj which ultimately introduces the music to presenters as well as builds up your audience base. It would be a shame to lose the momentum that you are clearly developing...and as Anne mentioned, much harder to regain once you're out of the picture for a while. James' suggestion about going to conferences every other year is a good one. Also, targeting (for lack of a better word at the moment) other regional conferences such as the southwest and midwest folk alliance are generally more economical, can be less overwhelming, and gets your name out region by region. Don't worry that this year the choice is getting the cd out vs participating in the international folk alliance - you'll have a new CD in hand to promote at the next one.

I'm always amused when people tell me that I'm so lucky to be doing 'what I want to do' for a living. With strangers, my response is usually: "Yes, you're so right". With friends, it's more along the lines of what James wrote below (and said, of course, with a smile): "I don't do 'what I want to do' for a living...I 'want' to sit around all day, every day, writing songs, drinking tea...and maybe doing the odd concert that requires no promotion...that is truly 'want' I want to do for a living. I don't 'want' to sell CD's by mail order, organize recording/rehearsal schedules of 5 musicians, design artwork for CD's, send out promotional mailings and emails, track down soft-seater and festival bookers across the country, send out contracts, book hotels, arrange for insurance, apply for showcases...blah, blah, blah...". I make approx. 10% of my income from gigs that I really 'want' to do, 20% writing songs/producing for (unbelievably demanding and ungrateful) French educational publishing companies, 5% from SOCAN royalties, 15% from CD sales, 20% from songwriting/business of music workshops and 30% from school concerts. Having said that, I do get to experience anywhere from 5 to 50 indescribably phenomenal musical moments every year - whether playing in a 2,000 seat theatre or playing for 80 kids around a campfire at Camp Trillium - and 'that' is why I'm a 'lucky' guy. In short, I work my butt off 50 - 80 hours a week, 49 or 50 weeks a year, just to be able to 'afford' those moments. For me, it's definitely worth it.

I just couldn't let that urge wait any longer. I think it was then that I made the decision that if my life was going to be about poverty and struggle, then I had better be doing something I really enjoy. I won't say it's been an easy road. There have been some very very hungry months. So when I'm having one of those "chuck it all days" (now rare), I find myself taking stock of all that's happened in the time since 1997. I haven't been a "regular" at the food bank in all that time (being a regular was a pre-1997 reality), the cupboard is well stocked, the fridge if full enough, I have a good roof over my head (even though it's not a palace), comfortable clothes on my back, and the rent is paid up, the van is holding together and there's always money enough to cover those annoying gasoline costs...I now own three lovely road-ready me-friendly harps (couldn't say I owned one when I started in 1997, 'cause I was playing a suffering and tempermental creature loaned to me at the time), the phone is still hooked up, and I haven't looked into the help wanted ads or checked out the EI job bank since 1998, not even on a whim. I think of the friends I've made, the wonderful soul-opening musical experiences that have come along--and these are more important to me that the "wins" on my professional resume. I love waking up in the mornings (ok most mornings), knowing today's time and energy is mine, to use at my discretion, and that I'm following the right path for me at this time in my life. The gift in those years was I learned to stop worrying about the bank account and to just take care of today. Do today's work and enjoy the process. That doesn't mean I ignore the business side, it just means I keep it in proper perspective. Balance. I use to agonize over the "competition", felt slaughtered by the "rejection". Hey, aren't we all unique. Can we put away the numbers/achievements we use to measure our self-worth? I began to enjoy the gift of being able to create wonderful music (whether anyone else thinks so or not is now beside the point), and let go into being present in the moment. I get to enjoy moving around in the stories I tell, enjoy the images the music I play brings to me, the joy of discovering something new in even the old material every time I perform. Daily attitude adjustments and psychological fine-tuning are the order the day in my life. I get to shift how I think about something/someone, whether or not I make someone/something important in that day's work. While others griped about the difficulty of being in a non-pop, outside the mainstream genre, I've let that reality liberate me. I get to carve out my own path, find gigs and audiences in out-of-the-way places few others have even considered. All the pressure of doing it "right" by some outside standard has fallen away. I threw away that god-awful measuring stick I was using to beat myself. I have as yet to attend any music conferences, and have very little interest in moving in that direction any time soon. I look after those generous souls who plunk down their hard-earned dollars to buy a concert ticket and/or CD, those soul-feeding ones who stop me on the street to tell me how the music has had a positive effect on their lives. In light of this, all the music programmers, record label execs and biz corporate types, begin to mean very little (nothing personal to any of you on this list who fill such a job description). My first "bosses" are the Muses who show up at breakfast every morning to talk with me over my cereal, or who have the audacity to wake me up at 3 am with "hey, listen to this!". They don't care how many tickets or CDs I sell, but they get my first consideration. If I disappoint them, I'm done, and might as head back into that 9 to 5 market, because they'll make my life miserable or run off to serve more receptive creatures. Sometimes, just the thought of returning to a regular 9 to 5 existence snaps me out of any worries about the business I'm engaged in. Trust. The bills will get paid. So what are your values about the whole thing? What really matters to you? Why are you doing what you're doing? Answer those questions first, and you're several steps down the proper (for you) path. Tune out the outside static. If you focus on those external messages, this business can be fatal! I guess the lesson is Love it, and the people who matter will notice. Hate it, and the people who matter will notice. It all starts with you. What's your source? Where do you draw your strength? Are you happy? And if you're having a terrible day, turn off the computer, put your instrument back in its case, and get out there into the world and the fresh? air, into something that puts the fire back under you to carry on, or convinces you it's time to shift into another line of work. For the collective gods' and goddesses' sakes don't find other negative souls with whom to commiserate! Go to town with a soul-feeding Muse. Downtime is also important in the midst of all this striving. Trust. Feed your soul and the rest will follow, or cease to matter very much... Ok, enough of my philosophical rant...I've gotta get ready for a gig....

Standing ovations, rave reviews, sold-out houses, awards and a busy life are trademarks of a successful artist. Singer/songwriter Bruce Guthro takes time out from his busy life to perform at the Sean O'Sullivan Theatre, Centre for the Arts, Brock University, St. Catharines, Ontario on Wednesday, February 21 at 8 PM. Bruce Guthro has an uncanny knack for writing good songs and a one-of-a-kind voice described as "rich and dark, smooth as molasses and sweet as honey." (Chronicle-Herald) Bruce Guthro's music isn't quite country, isn't quite Celtic, isn't quite folk, and isn't quite rock. It's a blending of many things musical that is distinctly Bruce Guthro. Bruce Guthro has been on the ladder to success for years. He didn't even pick up a guitar until he was in his late teens. Finding work in the hard-rock mines of northern Saskatchewan, Guthro eventually earned enough money to buy an old car and head back to his Cape Breton home. Somewhere along the way, he bonded with an old guitar and discovered his passion in playing music and writing songs. After playing in bars for a few years, Guthro won a songwriting contest that ultimately led to his first album Sails to the Wind. Although the album picked up three East Coast Music Award nominations, Guthro considers it "a little too country." Guthro considers Of Your Son, released after being signed to EMI Music, to be his debut. The album has had four hit singles and has won several awards, including ECMA Album of the Year (1999), Single of the Year ("Falling") and Canadian Radio Music Awards Breakthrough Award. Guthro is now in the studio putting the finishing touches on his much-anticipated third album, to be released this summer. Bruce Guthro's remarkable voice led him to beat out 400 other auditioners for the position of lead singer of Scotland's 25-year-old legendary Celtic band Runrig - a feat which has Guthro leading a demanding double life. Tickets for Bruce Guthro are $28.50/Adults and $25.50/Seniors and Students. Call the Box Office (905) 688-5550, ext. 3257 to charge.

Cleo Laine has sung just about everywhere - from English dance halls to London's Royal Albert Hall, Carnegie to the Blue Note Café. She's sung on Broadway, in London's West End, in opera and on the BBC. One place she hasn't been is the Centre for the Arts, Brock University - but that's about to change. The Centre for the Arts welcomes Cleo Laine and The John Dankworth Group to the stage of the Sean O'Sullivan Theatre, Centre for the Arts, Brock University, St. Catharines, Ontario on Thursday, February 22 at 8 PM. NOTE: THIS PERFORMANCE IS SOLD OUT. Laine began her musical career in the early 1950s in her native England. Her Jamaican father and English mother encouraged her talent by sending her to singing and dancing lessons. In her mid-twenties she seriously applied herself to singing and auditioned for the hugely successful British band led by the acclaimed John Dankworth. Laine toured extensively with the band and married Dankworth in 1958. As personal and professional collaborators, Laine and Dankworth have toured the world. Laine commands a dazzling array of vocal styles and is the only singer ever to receive Grammy nominations in the Female Jazz, Popular, and Classical categories. In 1983 Laine became the first British artist to win a Grammy award - Best Female Jazz Vocalist, for the third of her Carnegie Hall albums. Laine has also carved a niche as an illustrious actress. Newsweek called Cleo Laine "one of the best singers in the world." Born in London, John Dankworth showed early proficiency on the clarinet and by the age of 17 had entered the Royal Academy of Music. Taking up the saxophone to play modern jazz, he was named Musician of the Year by The Melody Maker Jazz Poll every year from 1949 until 1955 - the only jazz artist ever to achieve this level of recognition. In 1950 he formed the Dankworth Seven and, in 1953, the Dankworth Big Band. Dankworth founded the London Symphony Orchestra's pops program in 1985, and has served as the orchestra's Pops Musical Director. As a conductor, Dankworth has directed Pops programs for major orchestras around the world. In a career than spans more than 40 years as a composer, performer and conductor, it is unlikely that there is a British musician better known for a wider range of musical activities than John Dankworth. Whether with his baton, saxophone or clarinet, he has been recognized as one of the world's most outstanding musicians. Tickets for performances at the Centre for the Arts are available at the Box Office, (905) 688-5550, ext. 3257.

Anyone who saw the Centre for the Arts' 1998/99 presentation of Scraping the Surface will know that writer-performer Lyle Victor Albert is one funny, funny man. Crescent Moon Productions brings Albert's second one-man show, Objects in the Mirror are Stranger Than They Appear, to the Sean O'Sullivan Theatre, Centre for the Arts, Brock University, St. Catharines, Ontario on Saturday, February 24 at 8 PM. Lyle Victor Albert has a mild form of cerebral palsy, yet he's brave enough to act in autobiographical one-man shows that make him the sole focus of an audience. As a writer, Albert turns his disability into a source of good-natured, often hilarious comedy. Objects in the Mirror are Stranger Than They Appear is a funny and thoughtful story of the need to escape while trying to keep your life on track. On the heels of a breakup, Vic jams all his earthly possessions in the back of his 1986 Honda Civic and sets off on a perilous 1,000-mile journey through the Rockies in search of a new life in Vancouver. The trip sparks memories of trying to conquer, at sixteen, the standard transmission of a battered old Fargo half-ton on his parents' farm. His misgivings about leaving are contrasted with the lessons learned at the wheel of the Fargo. Born in Bonnyville, Alberta, Lyle Victor Albert's plays include The Prairie Church of Buster Galloway, White On White, Ba Ha Ha, Cut!, Wheelie, and Waves. For the past five years, Albert has toured throughout North America and Europe performing his first one-man show, Scraping the Surface. Scraping the Surface was awarded Edmonton's Sterling Award for Outstanding New Play. After adapting the play for young audiences, the show was awarded Vancouver's Jessie Award for Outstanding Script and Performance for a High School Audience. Tickets for Objects in the Mirror are Stranger Than They Appear are $24.50/Adults and $21.50/Seniors and Students. Call the Box Office (905) 688-5550, ext. 3257 to charge.

Incidentally, I had meant to put "five" figures for my recording budgets but had a brain cramp and miscounted zeroes. Total budget for my CD's is around $15,000 (manufacturing, recording, promotion), with which I corner cut with the best of them. :) But the numbers are not important. Your kind and friendly words are most satisfying. Strange, I hadn't meant to maplepost my private fears and concerns but as I wrote the response message to Vicki Martel's original post query it felt appropriate. I'm not sure whether I'm slightly horrified at myself for sliding into the pit of complaint or relieved by the friendly and informative responses to my post. I know I will continue to create music. We do not turn off creativity like a faucet. I only know that I believe with all my heart that my own music is too important to me to feel burdened by it, or to have financial constraints impinge on the quality of the music (ie. making inferor sounding recordings) or more importantly disrupt my generally sunny disposition. In the meantime, watch for the release of the third Jory Nash CD, to be titled "Lo-Fi Northern Blues", in early spring 2001. I feel that the album title is most deliciously appropriate given my recent state of mind.

Glad that it has. I have seen so many people - some were actually excellent musicians - get burned out along the way, which is rather depressing. We all know how hard it is to get a career going in this country, an altruistic career of living off one's music. I think that one of the most important things I can recommend is to diversify in how you market yourself. Gregg Lawless has it right, as far as I'm concerned. Go after the C) people: people who like what you do. Forget about whether it's folk music, a folk club, a pop club, whatever. Go after things with the C) factor in mind. Secondly, we all know how difficult it is to get heard above the din of the street. In other words, how can one utilize the media in order to create a buzz, just get some airplay to support an upcoming gig, convert people who have never heard of you into fans? The answer is simple: get heard on the radio, so that people can hear what you are like musically. However, in this country, that seems to be a nearly impossible task, it seems. There is so much great music out there, new and old, that begs for airplay and isn't getting its due. Isn't it time that a community of musicians, people who book musicians, other people who live off musicians in any way, shape or form, try to tackle this problem head on? How seriously do the conferences you attend deal with this issue? What are the prospects and what are the possible answers? And who knows how to take these things to the next step: action? Without airplay, the industry you are in will remain much the same as it is today. If your career does last another 20 years, you'll probably still be struggling, specially if you take a few years off to raise a family like Celine D. Then you start from nothing again. As it is now, only campus/community radio will give you the time of day. But here's the killer: these stations, as great as they are, attract the fewest listeners, have the most diversified programming to cater to and are constantly swamped with CDs from around the globe. I've been doing radio for nearly 14 years. I get an hour to do what I like. I am free to play whatever I want. This is a fun gig for me and I love doing it. But really, how can I really give any CD more than a spin or two, or three? With my one hour of music, how much can I accomplish for you? I do my best, as do the other folk-oriented djs, but the reality is that we're just little islands in an ocean of hostile creatures. What we need is a more responsive national carrier: CBC. We also need more regional music stations that will play Canadian music, that will play local music, that will support musical events not supported by breweries or cigarette companies, that will not throw your cd in the garbage before it gets unwrapped, etc. Why not concentrate on this for a while. It might be to everyone's advantage. steve fruitman - To unsubscribe: mail majordomo@icomm.ca with "unsubscribe maplepost" in the body (not the subject line) Need help? mail owner-maplepost@icomm.ca From lee@coolname.com Fri Jan 19 18:30:33 2001 Date: Fri Jan 19 18:30:33 2001 From: lee weston lee@coolname.com Subject: [mplpost] digest?
