Only Maddie left of the orginal line up but the current one have been together a good while and perform extremely well together. Plenty songs old and new in the 2+ hours of performing. One I had not heard them do before was Dave Goulder's "January Man" and they made a grand job of it. Only down side was that the sound mix was not as good as usual but maybe that was me. Besides, with Thomas the Rhymer before the break and Tam Lin starting the second half, I could forgive anything. Except maybe Benji Kirkpatrick's joke about the local pub that was strewn with old books and broken bikes. It was full of bar tat... :-) Go and see them! |

Everyone in the room turns round and you can see them thinking, WHO is this...? |
