Thanks to some enthusiastic discussion over on facebook, it appears certain that the Irish dancers pictured were from the northern academy called Clann na nGael. The musicians were possible the Knight brothers but still awaiting confirmation. The other band pictured at the Chestnuts folk day '95 have been ID's as the band for the dance side "Paddington's Pandemonic Express", somewhat disguised by relevant make-up. i should have remembered the latter of course as I know/knew several members, I blame early onset dementia... also have names now for the various Paddingtons band members in some of the other shots, thanks to all who responded. Cheers - Tony
