I wonder if there might be an appetite for zoom live performances throughout the winter months?  We have flirted with this idea a little in the past and I know that one or two members are known to still tread the boards. It would be interesting to know if forum members are interested in spicing up the forthcoming winter nights.

I can also think of one or two members who aren't around at the moment @PaulAds, @Kafla @tone for example who I would love to see in action.  We could draw up a calendar of gig events, asking each performer to play anything from 3 -6 numbers.

Thoughts?

Paul

@pompey jazz, that's brilliant!

@paulads you too my friend.

There are several people who currently frequent the boards who we would all love to see live in action.  So if you are reading and would like to give this a go, either PM me or add your name to this thread.  Rather than risk missing someone out, I will reiterate that this is open to all members.   I'll throw my hat into the ring too and hope that doesn't put anyone off.  :)

Please feel free to invite members who are currently not visiting the forum as we would love to see as many as possible in action.

Off the top of my head, @montydog and @Neil C, the door is wide open for you guys!

at this stage, I'm simply trying to gauge who is interested before ironing out specifics including dates etc. 

Paul

Can I just watch? Not sure I’m confident enough to play live yet 😄

@Nick Ryder,

Sign up buddy.  I'm going to have to learn a set of songs to do this.  These days, I write then instantly forget so that I have room to create again. 
You could always strum a few numbers.

@Wicked Deeds If you want to test out how this works on Zoom, give me a shout. I know that when we were on Zoom before there are some issues with audio. I think it will work if everyone else keeps quiet ! (Apart from the performer) I'll run a few tests on Zoom myself to see what works !

I'm a novice setting up zoom but will give this a try.  @pompeyjazz.  We could do with ironing this out so I'll take you up on your kind offer to help.

So, I can see that the following people are happy to be on board:

@pompeyjazz, @paulads, @Neil C, @Wicked Deeds.

That should get the ball rolling and entice others to sign up to this event.
