Thread Name: What's Happening to our Folk Festivals?
Subject: RE: What's Happening to our Folk Festivals?
Popped into "Drouthy Neebors" in Edinburgh during the Scots Fiddle Festival - break between the afternoon workshops and evening concert. It was the day that the All Blacks were playing Scotland at Murrayfield with a very convenient(for me) late afternoon kick-off. (My 2 pals had no interest at all in rugby but were just happy to have a jar and a blether!) So we needed food, but this being Edinburgh (Ye'll have had yer tea!") - the advertised pizzas were "not on today". However, as I jumped out of my seat for the 3rd time, as we so nearly beat the ABs, round came the barman with FREE pies! FREE, EMBRA! Ochaye!
