I know that this has very little to do with Traditional or Folk Song/Music, But if you have a broadband connection you MUST look at this webpage - it is amazing.

Strange indeed. It looks like a parade of Morris Dancing Giants.

When I was a child, the local fair/bazaar always had a pair of circus performers who danced on these flexible poles. Hypnotic and graceful.

I would love to see them! There are three videos of them at youtube. THIS ONE is seven minutes long or more and really enchanting. Thanks for this thread!
