Jody Cooper

The organiser didn't mention anything about a door charge and we're doing it for fun, so I'm assuming it's free! Hell, I'm just one of the musicians, what do I know?

Hello everyone

Just a wee note to let you know that me (Jody Cooper) and another singer songwriter (Brian Mattson) will be playing an acoustic set between 9 and 11 pm tomorrow night at MUSA on Exchange Street.

Hopefully see some of you there!

Best wishes

Acoustic Session

Hi

My name's Jody Cooper and I'm a singer/songwriter. I just read your message about the acoustic session on the 30th July and was wondering how I could get involved in future sessions?

You can have a listen to my stuff at: www.myspace.com/jodycooper

All the best

Jody

In terms of workshops etc it's been the best year yet imo' date=' a lot of interesting things happening so well done to the organisers for that, I just dont like the fact that yet again bands who didnt apply are slotted in, surely the organisers should have a list of local bands who did apply that they can contact instead of just putting people in, which again devalues the whole process of submitting. Why do local bands not feel the need to submit... because apparently it doesnt matter if you do, someone who didnt may still be playing.

On the whole, I enjoyed the experience of GoNorth this year better than any previous years, saw a few interesting out of town bands and learned a lot at the workshops, and made some valuable contacts, and as usual my complaints is about the band selection process which is again (in some cases) proved to be about who you know.

Cheers

Well...that explains a lot! I applied to play at GoNorth and didn't get in. I figured whoever did must've been better, maybe I'm naive. I was at the workshops too, which i really enjoyed, and decided to hang about for the showcase afterwards. Now you would think that whoever got the opportunity to play at these industry showcases would have to be pretty good wouldn't you? Well, for the most part they were good, but one of the bands was so uninspiring I thought something must not be right...and now I know why!

Am I the only one who experienced this? ?(

Hello

Would love to play if that's ok. I'm just by meself though so don't know if that qualifies me as a band

Hello

Would love to play! You can check out some of my songs at: www.myspace.com/jodycooper and see what you think. It'd just be me and an acoustic but what I lack in people I make up for in my performance

Don't you go out with my cousin?

Nice tunes by the way

Is your cousin Lyndsay? Then yes, we did go out for a bit...

Thanks for the feedback
