Stamford Riverside Festival 2009 was an outstanding success with more than 17,500 people on site at any one time. 2010 will be our 10th birthday and we are hoping to extend the event to two days and offer an even broader range of music and arts. But we need more volunteers to help us to organise this. Could you help us? Riverside is run on a not for profit basis by a small team of volunteers. To find out more or for an informal chat please contact Jenny Collins on 07788 534 290 or e-mail jennycollins10@aol.com

Full 17 piece Big Band situated in Loughborough, Leicester, has a vacancy for a Tenor Sax player. We have been playing together since March 06 and are now rehearsing for our first gig in March 07. We play 3 Wednesdays a month in a great pub 5 minutes drive from J23 of M1 8pm 'til late. There are some great semi pro players and good amateurs. We play for fun NOT money but take the playing seriously. We play the Glenn Miller standards, some Heath and Nestico. The ability to play swing is a must. Improvisation is not important. If you are looking for a big band and want to give us a try please contact me (David) via email , MROCLOCK@aol.com with your telephone number.

There's one in Leicester that's cheap, it's what my band uses. Only major expense is getting to Leicester. Ranges from a fiver per hour for the cheapest room to about 12 quid per hour for the best room. They're always dead helpful and the equipment they provide...well it isn't terrible. The website's http://www.stayfreemusic.co.uk But I'd like to see something in Oakham, since it closed down I've been saying how good it would be to turn Somerfields into one.

I agree that there are not enough places to rehearse. Finding somewhere to practise that is away from people who dont want to hear the noise is one of the biggest obstacles when bein in a band in rutland. And if you ARE lucky enough to find one, you usually have to pay an extoritonate amount. I personally would love to see something done about this, and I'm sure there are hundreds of others who would agree.
