Bravo Lads & Lasses all.

You guys are very good and enthusiastic are you doing any gigs around Blackpool Lancashire any time soon cheers Barry

[@antveal]

Am afraid not. We're based in South Devon and only travel out of the county half a dozen times a year and usually south of Birmingham. But you never know as West Yorkshire has been mentioned as a possibility

Thank you for your message I'm a Plymouth lad living in Blackpool so wrong place wrong time cheers Barry

I love this! Can I ask what time it is they’re dancing too, please?

[@antveal]

It's based on the tune by L.McKennit / Beltane Fire Dance. It was a massive coincidence that the group is called Beltane and dance Firedance and that it exactly fitted the dance! The dancers are meant to be like the flames of the fire leaping out of the central fire. It's awesome to actually dance it and we often ask members of the audience to stand in the middle

@@antveal How wonderful, thanks for the reply.

[@blackcatbroker]

@@antveal just one more question.. Is that a recorder the tune’s being played on along with the fiddle?

[@antveal]

@James Sherrenham yes it's a recorder which we amp up to boost the sound. She's a great musician

[@blackcatbroker]

@@antveal brilliant, thank you!
