Lewes 2013


Recommended Posts

Anyone else (other than Valmai who will surely show up...) this year?

 

We are already here, having made it that early for a wonderful pre-festival Carthy/Swarbrick evening which had to be canceled last year and now actually happened at the Royal Oak!

 

Looking forward to - among others - hearing Iris Bishop again, and perhaps meet some fellow concertinists...

 

Lewes Folk Festival 2012 was truly great, and will be just as well this year!

Best wishes to everyone - Wolf

Sorry for the late reply, had been cut off from the internet for a while unfortunately.

 

So it's three Morris men then... :D

 

Since I have planned to see some sites on Saturday this time we might get in touch there...

 

Guess I will be around at least for the first two hours; let's see...

 

Best wishes - Wolf

Oh dear and I never DID get to share a beer with you in the Sorrel Horse.

 

Well I hope the retreat goes well.

Thank you for the information, John!

 

I seem to recall that in 2012 the weather hadn't been that friendly on the Saturday; as to this year BBC are saying that the worst is to come in today and might be already gone on Saturday - let's hope so!

 

Guess I'll be present at the first round.

 

Best wishes - Wolf

Thank you Michael! - It's a pity that you weren't able to make it this year - best wishes for the relocation and your recovery!

 

After all John and I met ('twas nice, John; thank you!) and I can count myself as a fan of Kettle Bridge Clogs now... :)

 

Rottingdean's Copper Family, Andy Irvine, Martyn Wyndham-Read, Irish Bishop (among many others) and nonpareil Shirley Collins - a great week to live on for a year...!

Good to meet you Wolf.

Kettle Bridge Clogs had a good day. And the weather was good - a total contrast to Friday and today (Sunday).

the evening concert with Martyn Wyndham Read and Iris Bishop was excellent, with a good selection of support acts.

 

I got home at 12:45am and naturally was late for band practice this morning.
