Music Tonight

[jacey]

I'm going down to the Village Hall again tonight, this time to see the lovely Liverpool-Irish singer-songwriter Anthony John Clarke. He writes lovely intelligent songs and delivers them with a nice dollop of humour.

I've been organising concerts at our local hall for the best part of twenty five years, but over the last few years our audiences have started to decline slowly. I don't think we're upsetting them with anything specific, they just reduce by natural attrition. It's only when we get a big name guest like John Tams or Vin Garbutt that we have a full house, these days.

Maybe it's time to stop doing the events, but that seems like giving in and I don't do that so easily.

That slow dwindling away of numbers is a problem I've encountered here too. There was a Tai Chi class for a while and I really enjoyed going, but the numbers dwindled and so the class folded.
