Driftwood Deal Maritime Folk Festival - Ship Inn sesson Sat 3pm 19th Sept

Driftwood kicked off the One & Half hours set at the Ship Inn, in Middle Street with a stonking version of  'Bad Moon Rising'. It certainly woke the place up and apparantly it could be heard in Dover! Who needs amplification!

Lots of friends turned up for this one, including John+June from West Kent and Louise, Gill and Arthur from SE London, plus friends from Deal Folk Club.

All the standards like the Black Velvet Band & Wild Rover (which the band had only recently learnt) went down well and  good sing-along (or bang-along) was generated. Some of the songs which are not well known like Karine Polwart's 'I'm gonna do it all' and Kipling's 'Smugglers Song' (featuring dave on flute) were really well recieved. In fact they had requests from people wanting to buy their CD (which does not exist... well not yet)

Another very good set but the band was tried by the end ...
