Thread Name: PA and morris
Subject: RE: PA and morris
I've no problem with change. Folk traditions, including morris, have always been influenced by current fashions and that's how they evolve. However morris mostly takes place in the street or a pub car park, and in those situations a solo instrument, let alone a band, should be perfectly audible. Also, it's very difficult to get a good sound from PA out of doors, especially with a small portable set-up. The natural acoustic sound is usually preferable.
