Posting concert was removed for inappropriate material in the guest book section.
To lose players is bad enough, to have salt rubbed into the wounds promoting the concert of the band they left for is insensitive in my view.

Doc, thats just a joke. Promoting a concert ? she was only asking if anyone wanted to go. The concert is being "promoted" on the Scottish Brass Band Forum as it is. We didn't leave for Kingdom, we left for our own reasons.

Dave,
I don't think Doc has to justify his reasons for removing any postings, to be perfectly honest. This forum has been used as a platform to stir trouble several times already, so who can blame him or any other staff member for acting on impulse?
Also, Doc's post doesn't imply that you left us BECAUSE of Kingdom - not as I read it anyway - but it is a fact that some of the players we've lost recently have gone there.
I'm also going to agree wholeheartedly that, in the circumstances laid out above, that was a pretty insensitive thing to post in the first place.
I confess myself disappointed and more than a little bored of this.

Dave I removed the item basically because it was posted in the wrong section of the forum. Could have moved it but decided to just delete it for the reason in the replacement post.
I'm not having a go at Lorn or anyone else for that matter. Can I ask how many went from here to a xmas concert in Dunfermline last year or any other year prior to that?....................yip!! the silence is deafening. I know it's all a bit of banter but losing players is something I take very serious no matter what the circumstances are and wish others would treat it the same.
Doc

Doc,
This is my last posting on the website so you can relax. Have a look at other bands websites, they OPENLY advertise other bands concerts. This website advertised CO OPs concert series after Caroline Tennant left us to go there so can somebody tell me what's the difference ?
Cammy,
You accusing a member of your own band of stirring up trouble, I can't believe that of a committee member. Look what happened to the last one who did that. You know who she is and you know what I mean because I told you, answer, NOTHING.

Dave, the same person stirred up trouble for me and I did nothing wrong.
Personally i think its childish and should stop forthwith.

Fair point Brian, I know what you're saying and I wholeheartedly agree with you, but I'm hearing things from all over the place, ironically from everywhere bar Kingdoms bandhall. I want to get on with playing nothing else. The biggest thing that's upsetting me in all this is that the main protaganists are deafening us all with silence !!!!!

I concur with that as well. If the people, and i dont know who they are, or care, put as much work and commitment into playing, things may just be better than before.
Vine church concert will be great as it has been in the past..good luck.

I think you'll find I wasn't accusing anyone of stirring trouble, but was simply pointing out that this forum has been used to do so in the past - hence the sharpness with which the post was removed in the first place. That's what I was getting at, nothing else.
I can't believe how readily folk will take what someone says and twist it to their own advantage.

Vine church concert will be great as it has been in the past..good luck. Fantastic concert tonight .. as you said Brian, audience loved it and band really rose to the occasion. Would like to thank Suzanne for helping out on 4th man in place of Big Alec who was unavailable for the gig. |
