Subject: RE: Dartmoor Folk Festival
I too enjoyed watching the step dancing. I wore my 'Stepping on the Eels Foot' t-shirt and got to speak to Simon Ritchie.

When we came out of the Demon Barber Roadshow (well done guys for getting it together so quickly) they were already queuing for the concert so we gave that a miss and enjoyed the Dartmoor Pixies instead.
Then we found an incredible session in the front bar of the Kings Arms. Several pipe players, fiddle, melodeon, hurdy gurdy. Anyone know who any of these musicians were, they were top class. The chap standing next to us said it was the best session he'd heard all weekend.
What a great little festival.
