"The event aims to present concerts, sessions, singarounds and workshops in the fabulous setting of the North York Moors and around The Ryedale Folk Museum.

Artists appearing include: Maeve Mackinnon Flossie Dave Goulder Richard Grainger and Chris Parkinson Adrian O Wendy Arrowsmith Brother Crow Phil Drane (NZ) Les Cameron and Barbara Helen Jane Williamson Four Quarters Tickets £25 excluding camping (I'll post cost of camping once I have discovered it!) More information at: Ryedale Folk W/E MySpace with (I understand) a website imminent (again I will post the link as soon as I have it) See you there? Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: BusyBee Paul Date: 01 Apr 08 - 05:59 AM Unfortunately not Paul, I'm off to Winchester to stay with friends that weekend. Sorry because it sounds a good one. Deirdre |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 01 Apr 08 - 03:52 PM The website link is Ryedale/ FotM Website . This is still under construction though. Sorry you won't make it Deirdre. Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,Helen Pitt Date: 02 Apr 08 - 01:51 PM I know there will be singarounds and workshops happening all weekend, as well as the chance to see some excellent performers. There are more details from Richard Grainger, I'm sure, but it's guaranteed to be a most enjoyable weekend in one of the best settings you could ask for. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Tyke Date: 03 Apr 08 - 12:43 PM Yes I agree with you Helen this looks as if it could be a Great Weekend. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 11 Apr 08 - 04:33 AM Website link above is now fully operational....you might want to take a look! Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 19 Apr 08 - 09:26 AM Anyone going? |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,Helen Date: 19 Apr 08 - 10:33 AM Hope so - I've made sure people at our local clubs know about it. It should be a really enjoyable weekend with plenty of performers and activities to enjoy - but particularly well worth going to see Dave Goulder. It's a long time since he toured this area and it would be a real shame to miss him. For those who aren't familiar with him, Dave is the man who wrote 'The January Man' - just one of many fine songs he has produced over the years. He will be running a song writing workshop as well as appearing in concerts. There are also a lot of singarounds throughout the weekend - so plenty of chances for those who want to perform themselves. And Ryedale Museum itself is a lovely venue - plenty for the kids to see besides the musical entertainment. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,JHW Date: 19 Apr 08 - 04:49 PM Pity it clashes with the Sword Spectacular in York.

Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 01 May 08 - 03:28 AM It looks like that might be the only option theleveller! I'll see you there anyway. Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 01 May 08 - 03:34 AM Got my tickets yesterday - first festival of the year; can't wait. Just got to scrape the mould off the caravan. Look forward to seeing you, Paul. Pete |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 03 May 08 - 09:32 AM ....and you Leveller, I think it should be a good one. Paul |

Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 06 May 08 - 03:00 AM Never mind Deidre, you'll just have to arrange your diary better next year! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,Mrs Brother Crow Date: 06 May 08 - 07:17 AM Really looking forward to seeing all these excellent acts. This will be a really good weekend. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 07 May 08 - 03:47 AM As Mrs Brother Crow says, excellent acts....and don't forget the singarounds, workshops and sessions. It is also one of THE most beautiful settings for a festival in England. Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 07 May 08 - 04:21 AM ...in the world! (But I'm biased.) |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 07 May 08 - 05:44 PM OK Mr Leveller, you could be right! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 08 May 08 - 06:11 AM I've up dated the programme of events for the weekend on the website. Try here: http://www.festivalonthemoor.co.uk We're playing on both the Saturday and Sunday afternoons, plus the Friday night....it's gonna be a long weekend !!! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 08 May 08 - 08:54 AM Take a trip down the road to Fairy Calls Beck and cool off your tired hands in the sparkling waters in between. (And have a chat to the fairies!) |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: The Greyt Hound Date: 08 May 08 - 08:56 AM If the sun carries on like it is doing at the moment is should be a good weekend. Couple of questions banjiman.... Are there many tickets left or can you show up and pay at the door? Are many people camping and if so where at? |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 08 May 08 - 09:13 AM Hound, we couldn't get in with our caravan at Hutton le Hole, so we're at a great campsite just down the road in Rosedale Abbey. Tel number is 01751 417272 - if you end up there, look out for the caravan flying a flag with 'Whipstaff' on it. That's us! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 08 May 08 - 10:47 AM Hi GreytHound, Tickets can be bought on the door for Friday Night concert at the Feversham Arms featuring; Wendy Arrowsmith, Brother Crow, Les Cameron & Babara Helen & Phil Drane & some of their friends (me if I'm good, but don't let that put you off!!) for £3. Free to w/e ticket holders. e.g Saturday Tickets for afternoon ( including Brother Crow, Wendy Arrowsmith, David Goulder etc) & evening (Maeve McKinnon, Landermason) concerts + activities for JUST £10. Other tickets can be purchased at: Ryedale Tickets JUST £25 for the weekend. You can buy on the door if there are any tickets left.....I understand that they are selling well. I will check out the current camping situation and let you know. Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 09 May 08 - 06:44 AM Camping Update! Pitches still available at Rosedale (you can play/ drink with TheLeveller!) on 01751 417272 which is about 2 miles a way (maybe we can organise sharing lifts?) but the 2 sites in Hutton-Le-Hole itself have unsurprisingly sold out. Shaping up nicely! Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 09 May 08 - 08:40 AM All playmates and drinking mates welcome. Like the idea of lift sharing. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 09 May 08 - 08:58 AM A word of warning if you don't know Rosedale - if you're towing a caravan go by the bottom road and don't try to take it down Rosedale Chimney Bank, it's the steepest road in England! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 10 May 08 - 04:00 AM Anyone else coming? |

Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 16 May 08 - 11:57 AM Twenty-five quid? What an absolute bargain! The venue alone is worth that, let alone all the talent.(And great ice cream at the shop opposite.) |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 16 May 08 - 11:59 AM I'm putting new strings on me cittern in honour of the occasion! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 17 May 08 - 04:41 AM .....I might tune the banjo then! Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 17 May 08 - 09:41 AM Hmmm... might be taking things a bit too far - the cittern's got twice as many strings as the banjo! I mainly just use it for slicing hardboiled eggs. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 19 May 08 - 03:10 AM Just a few days to go, anyone seen a weather forecast? |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 19 May 08 - 04:10 AM Not looking too bad, Paul.. "The North and East remaining generally dry and more settled through into next weekend. Even through the rest of the bank holiday weekend and into next week the north and east will enjoy the quietest weather, although even here outbreaks of rain cannot be ruled out at times." Can't be as bad as Shepley last year! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 20 May 08 - 04:12 AM Not long now.... |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 20 May 08 - 11:39 AM Don't forget you can hear some of the guests here! |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 20 May 08 - 04:29 PM Caravan's deslimed, fumigated and ready to go to the first festival of the year.(I even washed the flag!) |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 21 May 08 - 05:12 AM Well don't forget to come and say hello to us....we're playing at the "welcome" night in Farndale, together with sets on both the Saturday and Sunday afternoons... ....for those of you who remember us from our sound duties at the KFFC Winter Warmer, we're doing the sound for the Sunday night and Monday afternoon concerts in the Old Manor House....with Landermason doing sound for the Saturday night concert. See you all there...it will be fun... Graeme, Brother Crow. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 21 May 08 - 02:21 PM Brother Crow, who's doing the sound for Friday night....or is acoustic? Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 21 May 08 - 03:26 PM The intention is to do it acoustic I believe.......we usually carry a small setup though, in case of emergencies...so if there's a lack of volume, we can sort something out on the fly... Graeme, Brother Crow. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 22 May 08 - 03:54 AM I tell a lie.....now it looks as though there may well be a PA (ours, of course) available on the Friday night.... G. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 22 May 08 - 04:37 AM Graeme, I understand that attendance is looking very promising for Friday evening so the gig might be moved from the pub to the village hall......I assume that this is very close to the pub in Rosedale? If I get any more detail I'll post it here. Guests on Friday include: Dave Goulder, Wendy Arrowsmith, Brother Crow, Les Cameron and Barbara Helen, Three Quarters, Phil Drane and Adrian O ......Room for floor spots too! £3 or free entry with weekend ticket (£25). Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 22 May 08 - 05:45 AM Hmmm.....perhaps we'd better bring the "big rig" rather than the Fender Passport then... G. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 22 May 08 - 05:56 AM Might be an idea! Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,Leila..... Date: 23 May 08 - 04:39 AM Any camping left anywhere nearby..? |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Cavia_P Date: 23 May 08 - 04:59 AM Glevum and myself are hauling our caravan up to Hutton le Hole for the festival. We're planning on staying at a Camping and Caravan Club gather somewhere in HlH... Looking forward to a grand weekend. Regards, Cavia_P and Glevum |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 23 May 08 - 05:09 AM Indeed, camping is available. I've just discovered (sorry) that there is a field available right next to the Ryedale Museum......£3 per night! This was arranged slightly late on and I only got the details this morning. If you call Jeanette on 01287 660200, she'll give you the details. Be great to see you Leila...and anyone else without any plans for the weekend. Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,Padraig Date: 23 May 08 - 11:45 AM Is the musician's session on Monday 26th really only 60mins? (12-1) |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 25 May 08 - 04:35 AM In the Study Centre yes, but there's plenty of other places to hold an inpromptu session... G. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 27 May 08 - 04:32 AM Good it was! Great concerts, great weather, great venue. Plenty of informal singing and playing as well. Good to meet Mr & Mrs Leveller (he has written some great songs!!) and swap a few songs and to catch up with lots of old friends too. Evan the kids enjoyed it. Well done Richard, we'll have another one next year please! Cheers Paul |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: theleveller Date: 27 May 08 - 09:47 AM Just got back. We had a totally brilliant weekend. Great to meet you and Wendy, Paul and also to meet Andy and Graham of Brother Crow (and all the families and dogs). Looking forward to seeing Paul and Wendy at Kirby Fleetham on 21st so if you can book us a short slot in the afternoon, that would be great. BTW - we think Brother Crow are the next Show of Hands (yes, they really are that good!), so go and see them if they're in your area or book them for your club, and don't miss Wendy Arrowsmith - you'll be in for a real treat. And thanks to Richard for organising a wonderful event - can't wait until next year and if we can do anything to help, let us know. |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 27 May 08 - 11:06 AM Wow, thanks guys, that's really kind of you... We had a great weekend, enjoyed playing in our two Saturday slots in the Manor House, and the Green Hut on Sunday. We ran PA/Sound all weekend, which though hard work, is really rewarding as you get to see all sorts of great acts. All were top notch - Richard Grainger/Chris Parkinson, Landermason, Flossie, Maeve McKinnon, Dave Goulder (lovely bloke), Wendy Arrowsmith, Barbara Helen/Les Cameron, Steve Dawes/Helen Pitt, David Swann, Bob Fortune and all the others, too many to mention... ...I MUST give a very special mention however, to the tireless Phil Drane and Adrian O. We'd never met them before, but they are top people, great performers, and now good friends.... Phil's version of "Red Barn" is a real show stopper...and Adrian in Jack Patch Scarecrow guise had all the kids chasing us shouting "shoe crows..." for best part of the weekend... It was great to meet all the Mudcatters and...err...I think that Paul and Wendy's dog "Poacher" rather enjoyed meeting our greyhound "Bingo" a little too much !!! All the best, Graeme, Brother Crow. P.S. Don't forget that Richard Grainger & Chris Parkinson, along with Barbara Helen & Les Cameron are at The Downe Arms, Castleton on Wednesday 28th May (yes, I'll be sound engineering for the night), so if you're in the area... |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Banjiman Date: 27 May 08 - 11:32 AM Pete, OK slot booked for 21st. Can you send your song lyrics? Comments like "BTW - we think Brother Crow are the next Show of Hands (yes, they really are that good!)" will make them unbearable, please stop! I'll admit that they are not bad..........but I'm going no further than that! "..err...I think that Paul and Wendy's dog "Poacher" rather enjoyed meeting our greyhound "Bingo" a little too much !!!" There was once a pub in Lincoln called The Gay Dog (now Dog & Bone).......... Agree about the hard work Phil & Adrian put in. I especially enjoyed jamming with Dave Goulder and Steve Dawes, sorry if we disturbed the sound checking! That Maeve can sing a bit can't she? |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: Brother Crow Date: 27 May 08 - 11:51 AM Hey, when were we ever unbearable....I mean, from a banjo player....well, really !!!! ;-) Graeme, Brother Crow. P.S. I hope you got all of Bingo's dandruff off Poachers nose (and head, ears etc....) :-0 |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,JonHirst Date: 27 May 08 - 03:45 PM Fantasic weekend, hadn't heard of most of the artists before we went, but what a top set of performers and in a fantastic venue too!!! Particularly enjoyed Phil Drane and Dave Goulder, but everything was absolutely top quality. Already looking forward to next year :-) |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,Mrs Brother Crow Date: 27 May 08 - 04:13 PM What an amazing weekend we had. The venue was terrific and the acts were fabulous. Richard and Jeanette have worked very hard to make this the success which it most certainly deserves. I especially enjoyed meeting new and old friends alike. I would like to say a big thank you to Marjorie Fortune who supplied me with a sandwich on Saturday night. Those of you who didn't come, you missed out on an amazing event. Book in advance cos next year will be even better. Ruth |
Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: The Greyt Hound Date: 27 May 08 - 04:23 PM I had a greyt time and I really enjoyed meeting the leveller. He was really kind to me and sat with me when my family had to leave me to do urgent stuff. I also enjoyed meeting Wendy and family (even Poacher) I enjoyed meeting Flossie and she was really kind to me. I must apologise to Phil Drane for interupting his concert when my mum brought me in. I thought his music was really good. As my myspace friends know I am a greyhound who enjoys folk music and on Sunday and Monday I saw some amazing acts. This weekend is up there with my Cropredy experience in fact, it was even better as I did not get trod on once. I look forward to more Festival on the Moor events that dogs can go to.

Subject: RE: Ryedale Folk W/E 23rd - 26th May N.Yorks From: GUEST,AW Date: 28 May 08 - 04:04 AM Many thanks to Richard and all the staff and artists. Had a really lovely weekend. The highlight for me was seeing Dave Goulder - so many great songs and a really nice bloke - but Flossie, Phil Drane and Maeve McKinnon and the rest made the whole event a treat. Looking forward to next year's festival. |

My owners, theleveller and mrsleveller, have told me all about you and I really want to meet you. Unfortunately, they don't take me to many places as I tend to throw up in the car but I'll try to get them to bring me next year. It would be better than staying at home with Sam. Do you know he shut one of the cats in the utility room while he went to see the Kaiser Chiefs and she had to go to the toilet in the tumble dryer – Pete and Jools were NOT pleased. Hope to see you soon. PS Poacher sounds nice too – I do like you big boys! |

I just wanted to say what a brill weekend we all had inspite of the cold on the night. Looking forward to next year. All the best Ruth |
