North Of England Steel Guitar Festival 2021

[Tony Russell Davis]

Folks - so many have pulled out that the festival is a non-starter again this year (2021). If anyone still wants to come visit the area we'll be very pleased to meet up informally but a Festival, as such, is not viable.
I have sent messages to people expected but please pass this message to anyone you know. In particular I don't know if Pete ("u_twelve") got my message.
Sadly, Tony.

Hi Tony, Just read your last post, that's a blow, all seemed to be going well. Chin up we shall return. Donny.

Thanks for the heads up Tony. Sorry to hear about Festival cancelation .
I have fortunatley been able to cancel my accomodation free of charge.
I didn't get your PM or notification of a PM. Problem with the forum software????

Should there be any change maybe you could let me know using my e-mail address (I think you should have it)

Sorry to hear your news Tony.

It would appear that the South of England festival is kaput too for the whole of this year. Such a shame for players, organisers, venues and accommodations. Everyone's a loser.

No known issues, check your forum notification settings, and make sure the email address is also correct. On visiting the forum, if you have a new PM it'll be in a pop-up window which your browser may block, so check that you've allowed popups from here, too.

If there's no PM showing, perhaps Tony accidentally deleted it before you picked it up.

I think everyone who should know, knows now. It is quite a blow but we really couldn't go with it.
We have an irregular get-together on occasional Sundays from mid-day, I'll post them here and anyone who wants to join in is very welcome - why not combine that with a long weekend stay at the pub and visit to our fabulous Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors?

Hi Tony,
why not start with Sunday 8th August. Seeing as how I've already received permission from my Commander in Chief to be out of her way for that weekend?.....

Only just found out it's been canceled!

Thanks for trying Tony, I can appreciate how much work goes into organising these events.

Hope to catch up soon.
