G'day Bob.

I've NEVER heard Spider from the Gwydir sung. As Bob has said on another thread, it really needs to be recited.

The first time I ever heard it was at Jamberoo Folk Festival, being performed by Campbell the Swaggie in 1994. He puts his whole body into the act when he performs, running, falling, waving his arms about - very dramatic. You couldn't do that while singing!
