Hi All,

As the heading says,I'm thinking about starting a lyrical songwriting group in Dublin....

were maybe once a week or every 2 week's we can get together,showcase our work i have plenty of mic's in the rehearsal studio and you're more than welcome to sing if you want,this could also give people the chance to sing in front of people,making yourself more comfortable,and then the rest can offer advice/CONSTRUCTIVE criticism....

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!

all ages welcome!

Interesting indeed... I'm hoping to turn my hand to songwriting again (as an adult!) in the near future, could be interested in this! Would be very much a novice, and not much of a performer though

EMMA_JVC · 18-07-2011, 23:13

Im am v. interested.
Im not much of a songwriter. In fact, just starting out really. I am a working singer tho, and would love to contribute.

When does it start?

Hey there

I've been looking for something to kinda motivate me to finish songs, count me in if you are going ahead with it

Cheers

Eoghan

I would be very interested in getting involved. I have a lots of unfinished ideas and would like to get feed back and help.

iMADEtheBBC · 23-07-2011, 15:23

count me in if anything gets organized. weekly is a good idea.

TheFiveLamps · 25-07-2011, 13:03

nice to see some interest!

would people prefer to meet in a pub and have a chat first and then maybe in a week or fortnights time we can get together and showcase some stuff etc?

Ya, this sounds like a great idea, nice idea to meet up first and have a chat with people and see what everyones about and how it could work. I write songs but don't know what to do with them!
Keep me posted. At the moment any evening suits me.

Musiconomist · 25-08-2011, 10:19

Yeah, sounds like a bit of fun. Might even motivate me to finish a song or two. Let me know if it's going ahead.
