Captain, Of course the members of the "reel branch" can continue to play music as an independent organisation. Given the standard of Friday night's concert, they would, I think continue to attract great musicians to their events, and their clases would still be popular given the standard of their teachers. But (also speaking from what I heard on Friday - I'm not a member) they want to stay in Comhaltas even after what has happened, as they enjoy the cameraderie with the other Branches, the ability of their members to compete in Fleadhanna Cheoil etc. And, as an independent grouping, they would have to forego the use of the Classac building which they worked very hard to put in place.
