Subject: RE: Folklore: border morris
Hi Morris ey,
I am surprised at your claim that Border dancers don't know about the origins of what they are doing. I have danced with 2 sides and on and off we discussed what our origins might have been. Here is the last side I danced with:
Gorton Morrismen
And some History
Maybe not all dancers would be familiar with the history but don't the Squire and other organisers know quite a bit?
Best wishes
