GUEST,Joe 'English Country Dances', Please (315* d) RE: 'English Country Dances', Please 29 May 08

JM has hit the spot there! If I was to feel that I was dancing strictly to maintain any sort of tradition, I would give up tomorrow! I am involved with a tradition and have been for the last 10 years because my brother was involved with it and enjoyed himself, I got to discover the mysteries of the village pubs at the tender age of 14, and I loved the dancing. I now play folk music because I enjoy it. I enjoy the social side of sessions, sometimes more than the music itself.

WAV - what is your motivation behind your involvement in the folk world? Is it important to maintain a tradition in order to simply maintain a tradition?
