Subject: RE: Child-friendly folk in/near Manchester
Oi! Leave Manchester's top independent folk record label out of it, Mr Grocking. The real Folk Police may well like their trad a bit skewed, but they do like it trad...

Clever play on the term Child-friendly though.

BB - More about that Dunham Massey suggestion. I can't remember what time it kicks off, but I think it's Bollington Morris, with some fine musicians involved, including a few who frequent the Beech. Maybe if any of them read this they could fill in a few more details? It's also worth checking out the 'Songs and Tunes at the Beech' Facebook page, too. The Beech Band sometimes take their monster folk behemoth out and about to daytime events around South Manchester.
