Thread Name: Organisers. Why do we do it?
Subject: RE: Organisers. Why do we do it?
no ceilidh, limited variety. & FWIW once my active earplug are delivered I could be there at a respectable volume.

Compare some of the commercial UK festivals with the Les Grande Bals de l'Europe in Saint Gervaise/Gennetines, Bourbonnais France:
We welcome dancers and musicians who accept our invitation, our organization and contribute to running costs but we reject all forms of trade, propaganda and recruitment in the chamber meetings and on our car parks and grounds for camping ( some accredited persons are allowed to sell in these places in the public interest). (Goggle translate)

and it looks like I might be there next year. Maybe no ceilidhs, but wall to wall dancing. Mazurka anyone?
