Hi all at Arc
Norman McCourt at AMMA forwarded me your email about Arc and its services. I hope to be touring outside of Sydney at some stage in the near future, but in the meantime I have my CD Gisele Scales "2 Think" for sale.
I'd be most interested in having this made available on your site if at all possible?
I look forward to hearing more from you. Many thanks.
Best wishes

Do you do workshops with youth in rural areas with performing artists. Do you have to be a member first?
If all of the above then is it up to the host to fund it or have you got a special funding support for workshops etc;

Peta,
You sent an email recently (below) which found its way to me and I tried to call to get more information about this project but got your answering machine. Could you let me know more about it, or direct me to more information about it on your website? I am placed in the south west of regional Victoria as a RADO (Regional Arts Development Officer), employed by Regional Arts Victoria, who are based in Melbourne. My role is to support the Shires I am in partnership with. Someone has received your email and sent it onto me and I would like more information if possible.
Thanks,

Hey there
I represent the Melbourne rock band NITIDUS who are very interested in doing a number of underage shows. I have included both the band's website and myspace links for you to have a look and listen. The band puts on a really live and energetic show, the lyrically content of all songs has absolutely no offensive language or material and the guys all relate well to the younger generation having been ambassadors for 'Embrace the Future', an organisation that promotes the mental well being of younger people.
I look forward to your reply

Hi Peta
Here's a photo showing the Soundshell Stage.
On Festival day we've had 15,000 through the site, but I'm thinking for a stand-alone ticketed event we can probably hold 5,000 comfortably. Depending on fencing we could potentially drop capacity to a few hundred.
The site doesn't have any AV gear, we usually hire in, and in the past we have also fenced off the site. (It is on Council land so normally people can access the lawns at all times). I think last time we fenced it off it cost a couple of hundred dollars. If we can be of any assistance please let me know
Cheers

RE: Light Up The Halls It sounds like a good opportunity, however I would have to run it by my boss. In winter in Jindabyne we get a lot of great bands, however young people under 18 don't get to see them as they play at pubs. We are currently looking at what we could do to get some of these bands to play an extra night or an earlier time so young people can see them and we are trying to source funding. I noticed on the website it said that today was the last day to nominate a venue. Do I have to give a specific venue or is it okay to just express our interest?
Thanks

Dear Peta,
MY HAND IS UP!!!
I would like to register Wallaroo Town Hall as a possible “Light Up the Halls” venue.
It would hold 300-400 and is a terrific old hall in great condition - even the roof opens up to the stars!
Of course we would have to go for funding to get the event happening but I want to support the program and get our name on the list.
What other info do you need from me?
Cheers

At the moment I have one emo band, a more old school punk act, two power pop bands and a sixities garage group. I can put together a list of all their web pages for you to look at or throw a CD from everyone into a Jiffy bag and send it off.

Dear Ms. Wilcox,
My name is Charles Coleman but please call me Chuckles.
I received a copy of an e-mail you sent John Hardaker from the band John Citizen. The e-mail was entitled Light up the halls .
Many years ago, if I may, my ex-wife and I stayed at a friend of hers in the small town of Harden in New South Wales. Sonya, my ex-wife’s friend, told me the town had asked her to tell me to bring out the bands I was in. I assured her they’d hate what we did but Sonya told me that didn’t matter. Harden was going bankrupt and suffering a brain drain with all the children leaving to live in Sydney or Melbourne. What they wanted was for the circus to come to town, in all its punk rock glory, and help them forget the reality of life for a while. (Pretty much the reason we all get into music.)
I’ve been thinking about this a bit lately.
The Turbo Nun Entertainment Group handle a few artists. I mainly stick to old and new school punk, guitar based pop music and singer/songwriters. ‘Light up the halls’ sounded intriguing. Although, everyone I deal with aren’t that financial and all live in Sydney. They would be best suited to NSW shows, as only one or two of them have hit the road in the past.
Yours faithfully,
Charles Coleman.
