How did you all get on last night?

I was there at 20:30 and left about 20:50. I was too early I think. I couldn't see any singer/songwriter looking people (whatever singer/songwriter peeps look like) so I just left in the end.

I approached two groups of people but they just looked at me funny when I asked "Are you guys from the internet?" lol.

What was discussed and Is there another night planned?

Hi everyone.

A mate of mine attended this last Saturday for the first time and there were about 10 people in attendance.

http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-So...249977?sk=wall

He said maybe 30 people attended the first one and possibly the rugby played a role in the smaller numbers this time out.

They met in some Georgian building on Parnell Square; The Teacher's Club. I'm not sure who organised it. But, there was some guy who works for RTE was also in attendance just as a passing interest and used to work on the Beat Box. He is trying to come up with a pitch for funding from RTE for some sort of programme on Irish music. I think there was also a guy there that worked on the protection and royalty side of the business.

I haven't followed this thread all the way throughout so i don't know if you guys are looking for a smaller more personal group but thought I'd mention it to ye anyway.

I'd love to go in but live in Ratoath. Might get the finger out at some stage and make the trek though. My mate will probably be going again.

Edit: Just read my own link there. There's a €2 donation for the use of the venue.

Edit 2:

we could get together in a city centre location,or i have a rehearsal room in Dublin 1 that we could use,if thats the case maybe 1 or 2 euro per person a week?

if anyones interested or has any advice please give me a shout


Hi there, I woould really love to take part in this. Sounds like exactly what I am looking for. Let me know when you have more info. Cheers, Ceili.
Hi, this is Kyla. I left a message probably a couple of months ago now folowing this thread. I would love to take part in any groups wishing to get together, play, jam, share ideas-would be a great chance to meet people that are musically like minded! I'm itching to play/sing but I really lack the confidence, so I want to push myself into this!
I'd really like to set a date for anyone who would like to be part of this. The rehersal rooms sound like an ideal place.
Is anyone free next weekend!??
Hope to begin something!
Cheers,
Kyla

Hey

I am very much up for this, as I said before, can offer up my sitting room for an hour or so just to get things going as long as the group isn't too big, I live in d 8

I would be up for doing this on Saturday afternoon if it suits anyone else?
