Thread Name: Molly Dancing
Subject: RE: BS: Molly Dancing
I hesitated about whether it should go above or below the line. But I rather like reading posts from those I already 'know' and am a bit wary of a lot of very knowledgeable music buffs who might despise my obvious ignorance. I adore Cotswold and Border Morris, and only met with Molly about four years ago at Whittlesea Straw Bear. For some reason I was absolutely captivated. It's such an odd way to dance, with clenched fists, everyone in most strange clothes, colourful and bright. (although Pig Dyke are all in black and white!) Also, the dancers seem to be mainly young folk, which is so encouraging for the future. I like to see the younger ones taking part in things like that. I'm now obsessed with these two videos and watch them every day, once each, on Youtube. They seem to cheer me up no end!
