I understand that E-Ceilidh is a genre, for want of a better word, of Ceilidh. Loud, electric fast and stuff like that. Is this about right? A bit diffferent to Irish Ceilidhs, EFDSS Ceilidhs, Scottish Country Dancing and that New Wave of English Country Dance Bands.

I am pondering the idea of A-Ceilidhs. That is Acoustic Ceilidhs in which:
1.more or less all instruments are played with out amplification
2. lots and lots of people are in the band
3. we play in small halls.

Clearly this is hardly a new idea. Any advice or experience to be shared.
