Hi Deelybopper,
Thanks so much for your support at the seminar and I am glad you got alot out of it.
The reason why it was not a surprise is from experience and talking to Shira and others. We have tried this sort of thing before at the festival and it was the same. Also I have attended and presented seminar in other festivals and it has been the same in the past. However, I did present a seminar at Majma and it was full so that was good.
Shira was telling me about the first conference in canada and how it has taken time to build interest etc. it is now a very successful event.
I agree, with all your points and it does come down to priority.
I highlighted Shira in particular as she is not resident in the UK and it was the first opportunity to see this presentation (hopefully not the last!) and in the Northwest of England.
As for money, people pay huge amounts of money to attend festivals all over the country so it is nothing new. Also the festival was subsidised by funding as the real expense for what was on offer ran into multiple thousands and one year of work.
