Pete Dickey Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Well I've just got back and unpacked after a hugely enjoyable and totally exhausting weekend at Bradfield. Despite early heavy rain the remaining weather was pretty favourable and the event turned out to be a great success. It was also very nice to put faces to names of some Concertina.net members. Mark Davies clearly put a great deal of time and energy into organising the event and I would like to give him a big vote of thanks for all of his efforts and hope it hasn't put him off repeating the BTMW next year.

Alan Day Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 I agree with Peter a very enjoyable event and although I was only there for the day, enjoyed the atmosphere, good company,singing, the playing and the wonderfull venue on one of the peaks in the Peak District. I was about to say how well organised it was by Mark and certainly everything was provided to perfection,but the events just seem to happen,which is why this weekend works.Thanks for a great day.

Dave Prebble Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 Hi All, I should like to echo the vote of thanks proposed above and extend this to Mark's long suffering better half, Joan. In addition to the joy of meeting a lot of old friends, the sessions and events were all a great success and provided for me one astounding revelation....... A Banjo can actually be used (just how, I know not) as a musical instrument !! For that, my thanks to Rob Murch..What a superb player! Thanks to all who attended and made the event such a success and thanks again Mark & Joan I look forward in eager anticipation to more next year Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
