Ptarmigan ,who said no idea,not my words.
Diane,My point is that these awards only use is that they further the winners careers, and provide a small amount of trad based music with a competitive formula. I think the BBC would be better off scrapping these awards,and putting on programmes that give in depth analysis of the roots of this music.,plus programmes like the hold down a chords series,but say using open tunings for guitar ,aand dealimg with other instruments
your opinion is different from mine .so why dont we beg to differ and leave it at that.good night
