andydiamond Posted February 21, 2007 Author Share Posted February 21, 2007 I think I may be able to get you some professional help Chris, and we may even be able to get the n.h.s. to fund it --------- You could do with a one string fiddle and a bowed psaltery to round of your collection, but what on earth made you buy a banjo ? Was it the voices ? ( they make me buy concertinas and melodeons, - - - - - - -- -thats what I told Elaine anyway ) Andy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Yes FUNDING thats what I need (preferably unlimited) I do have 2 bowed psalteries already (made by my father as part of an effort on my part to give him some purpose in life after he had a stroke and was feeling useless-it worked he went on to make repro wooden wall clocks and things) haven't seen a one stringed fiddle for a while but I will bear it in mind I have a one stringed fiddle shaped space on my last empty bit of wall. the banjo-what can I say (I realise now that I have 2 ) momentary insanity and I forgot the scottish small pipes. My wifes' card funded these too. It was mentioned on the main stage at 'The National Folk Festival' at Loughborough that year by Dave Webber. I think in disbelief that I had managed to get her use her card for this purpose. Voices - I can't hear voices for the sound of instruments saying BUY ME Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andydiamond Posted February 21, 2007 Author Share Posted February 21, 2007 One Banjo could, I suppose, just possibly be an accident - - - - but TWO ? !! Strewth, even my brother only has one tenor banjo, and he's barking - - - - - - - The Scottish small pipes do go some way to mitigating the banjos though Andy.

Wonderful group Aye, and it is this group I had in mind, not these folks, whom I discovered when I went looking for the singers' web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 Jim That must have been a shock. I wonder if they are part of the mythical 'Folk Police' of whom one hears about on other forums chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Jowaisas Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I suppose the Voice police only perform "a cop ello". Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
