Hey Laura,
How good of a turn out do you think we'll have if we visit there for a Roadtrip Showcase? We'd promote it to all our members, but I wonder if you know a collection of local artists to add to it as well and if we can get those folks involved ahead of time with the chapter?

Hello!
My name is Brent Holland and I have lived in Wilmington for most of my life. I have played in some local bands, but recently I have just been writing and playing for fun. I am looking to get serious about song writing again and just want to get with some people. I have a song currently published by Woodrich music, but I signed that song to them without really knowing what I was doing and it was obviously a mistake.
Anyhow, I will be checking this forum and seeing what is going on.
Brent

Hi Miss Laura,
I'm not from your neck o' the woods (a Florida boy) but I've a very good friend up in Lumberton whom I visit from time to time. Maybe I can manage to make a visit coincide with your festival there and see y'all play.
Question: what does it cost to get in? I've been all over the sites and can't find the info.
