I've still got a few to watch. Last night I watched the piping concert with Tryst, Conundrum etc which was very good. I also enjoyed Transatlantic Sessions and the Sunday night one with Dean Owens, Rhiannon Giddens et al. I preferred Imar(Moshen's other band) to Talisk which was slightly more traditional in feel if not repertoire... Personally, I don't mind fast music as long as there's a tune or melody there somewhere. The wild "frenetic" and predominantly rhythmic feel is fine if you are up "having a bop" but less so for listening. Mind you, these youngsters can "do it well" and if there's a market, good luck to them.
