Be the envy of your friends..............!
Yes, be the envy of all your friends and win an exclusive, (never seen on Ebay) Folktalkinfolk mug! Read on. This blog is fast becoming an episode of 'all our yesterdays'. But the kids have to learn what we had to live with before oral contraception, don't they? Next week it's the annual BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. So next Wed (8th Feb 2012), if your reading this later you have missed it)) I would like you all to gather around the 'wireless' (that's the thing we used to listen to before we contacted 'Radio Rentals' to hire a telly) at 7.30pm for an good two and a half hours or so of folkie goodness. It should be good, I hear that The Dubliners ("come on 'Banjo' Barney") and Seth Lakeman (calm down girls) are doing a turn and with Mr Harding and Julie Fowlis at the helm, all should be well?
I hear you crying "what about the mug Phil"! All you have to do to win one is go to the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards website, take a look at the list of nominees , jot down the winner in each category, email them to the usual address. Then sit back and wait. Anyone getting three or more correct will get the famous drinking vessel (I would now like to show you a picture of one, but as yet, they have not arrived). Her are my picks anyway:
Folk Singer of the Year, June Tabor.
Best Duo, Spiers and Boden.
Best Album, Ragged Kingdom (June Tabor and Oysterband).
Best Original Song, 'On Moracambe Bay' by Ken Littlewood (performed by Christy Moore). *****
Best Traditional Track, 'Bonny Bunch of Roses', June Tabor and Oysterband.
Best Live Act, Bellowhead.*****
Horizon Award, Pilgrims Way.
The two *****'s are (I think), 'dead certs'!
Good luck to you all, bye for now, Phil
