As I told you in my last post, it was the folk festival at the weekend & me and my mate danced here there and every were!

At my folk club I won free tickets for every thing! shows & workshops and any thing else that was happening.
I think the best band at the howl folk festival was Last Orders!!! who are a group of teens who just won the BBC Radio2 Young Folk Awards 2 of them on fiddle: David Jones & Kevin Lees 1 on guitar: Matthew Jones + every so often they get Maz O'Connor to do vocals for them and the best out of all of them Joe O'Connor on melodeon (who used to come to my folk group) click here to go to there web site.
Me & my middle brother got their new CD, which is last orders BY Last Orders (well they ain't very imaginative are they).

But I've got to say the best bit was when me (on penny whistle, flute and a bit of clogging) my mate (on flute) and my brother (on fiddle) went busking and got £$$$:$$s we were so happy when some people gave us a £10 pound note that we stopped playing to thank them!


I'll be going now, But first here's a list of the best bands in the folk festival:


Last Orders (the all mighty band)


Hannah (my clogging idol
)

Kerfuffle (group of 4)

Spiers & Boden (who weren't in the folk festival but should have been)

Emma & the professor (another band that should have been in the folk festival but weren't this time)


The Devil's Interval (singing group of 3)

I'm back!

I'm back!


Hi peaps!
I know I haven't written in ages (forgot my password, oops) so i'm gonna make it all up to you lot with this mega long post, all about the things i've been doing in this year long gap!!!

Well for starters I now go to an orchestra where I play the flute, I thought I would have to play lots of boring classical stuff but on the last show we did we played the Entertainer (which is really funky when we have the whole orchestra playing with the drums) and on the show before that we played the Yellow Submarine, Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds & my favorite Ob-La-Di,Ob-La-Da.

I've also taken up the piano, I'm speeding through the books and can play ruby (by the kaiser chiefs) of by heart!

I've also started another clogging group on Tuesdays.


d ' o ' b
I'm doing a clogging show with my mate (Lozzy) on Saturday in the local folk festival weekend! we'll be the two hyper kids with a very serious folk group ;o)

I'm still home schooled & as always loving it.

Any way don't know if that was as long as you were hoping but I got to go now.


and now I'm...gone!
