Subject: RE: What the Folk? Lectures at C# House From: Gwenzilla Date: 09 May 08 - 05:41 AM They'll be completely worth the commute, Richard. Doc Rowe's photograph collection alone is enough to draw a crowd, and Shirley Collins is one of the most engaging and dynamic speakers I've ever heard. The one I'm really looking forward to personally is the Vic Gammon one, as I've missed other talks by him and, you know. Sex, drink and death in English folksong? How can you go wrong with that? :-) Hope to see you there. |

Subject: RE: What the Folk? Lectures at C# House From: mattkeen Date: 09 May 08 - 06:10 AM Looks really interesting especially the Vic Gammon one , as already mentioned, and the East Anglia one too. Anybody have any more info on that one? |
