I like bands that use a couple of tunes ...a change in the middle of the dance provides a good 'lift'....None of the bands I work with need to use the dots..(thank God!)..they have learned the tunes! With Old Swan for example,in the last thirtyseven years working together we have sorted out which tunes are ideal for which dances...but it's not static...Currently listening to the new demo OSB CD, and will use as many of the tunes on there as possible at Sidmuff on Tuesday evening in Blackmore Gardens....yes indeed. a celebration outdoor ceilidh...lets just hope for dry weather! 60 years of Sidmouth..40 years for OSB!!
