GUEST,Dazbo At Work The Newcastle course-Vic Gammon speaks (64* d) RE: The Newcastle course-Vic Gammon speaks 08 Sep 09


I see they have a dance tutor. Is that, I presume, for playing for dancing? The reason I ask is that I have seen a few bands made up of graduates from this course performing on stage over the last two years and the one negative thing that struck me is they seem unable to play dance tunes in a way that actually makes me want to dance (I admit that this is only a small percentage of the graduates out there). It seems to me from this small sample, that in general one of the two main areas of folk music, that is playing for dancing, has been - to some extent - ignored.
