Live @ Go Acoustic

Hey all,
Sunday 14th May saw the very first Go Acoustic event @ the Brickmakers Arms in Horsford. So many thank you's are deserved we are not sure where to begin...firstly, a HUGE thanks to Glyn our hostess and her staff for having the daring to open their premises up to new ideas, new music and new faces. Secondly, ALL and EVERY band that played, from the beginning of the event at 12 noon to its close at half past 11p.m.We here @ Bakka are honoured that so many bands arrived to play and each gave such a memorable and passionate performance.
By design, Go Acoustic is organized to allow each performer a 6 song set so they can fully immerse themselves in their songs and the audience to hear a body of work by the songwriters performing.In all, 18 bands played, all gave wonderful performances, bringing each, their own souls and passions to the stage and pouring them out for all to hear. I was so happy that bands were talking and listening to one another...as I said before - i was hoping that the Go Acoustic event was going to be more fun than sitting infront of your monitor tapping away on Myspace at 1a.m. and it truly was, much better...to get to meet people face to face, to shake hands, to share laughs and smiles, to see and hear so much fantastic live music was a pleasure and honour...THANK YOU to ALL the artists that played!!! You did yourselves proud...
The next Go Acoustic event will be on the 18th June 2006 and this time will start at 3:00p.m - if you want to play, please get in touch a.s.a.p. and I will be posting regular bulletins here and on my space over the coming weeks to keep you informed of the growing list of acts...Take care, Jim and Ed
