No one who has been in The Radway at Sidmouth would ever think that it was ONLY the people playing Irish tunes who were good musicians.
       And I must confess the New Tavern sessions have tended to be very much'If you cant hack it,dont try to join in' a lot of the time,
but always gave time for the less experienced players to 'Do Their Own Thing' in between the Jigs and Reels played so fast that Flatley
couldnt keep up. Or Jazz. Or Music Hall. Or Country Western. Or any thing else. A good MIXED session is the only kind I really enjoy.
