See William Irwin weekend in events.
One of a number of tunes and songs which may get an airing during weekend to commemorate Lakeland's and Lancashire's greatest fiddler.
for dots etc of I am a Lakeland Fiddler = song about William Irwin by Alan Bell (for those who don't know him he is
Chair of NW Folk arts development agency Folkus,Director of the Fylde Folk Festival etc)and very active elder statesman (heading for 80!) of the NW musical scene, still singing and an English concertina player.
(BTW the ABC / tunetron explanation is for those off Cnet such as fiddlers and triangle players).
