Not another banjo band at the Exchange??!!!! (I'll assume it's the Exchange because I couldn't see any venue mentioned). Has the Exchange considered booking any non-banjo bands? The trad thing really is only a limited market and I'm sure there are lots of modern jazz fans and local musicians who would attend if there were alternative attractions.
I agree with you. However, I know from experience and conversations with Mike D that banjoless bands don't draw large audiences at the Exchange!
Sad.
However, the following week on Fri June 18 the very swinging Customs House Big Band are at the Exchange in concert with vocals from Ruth Lambert so I think that should be a splendid evening.
