Passion and joy in life is what it’s all about as far as I’m concerned and Loomashun had it in abundance. Some traditional performances can be fine technically but lack flair and you feel their hearts are not in it. Theirs was, and it made us all feel good, so I hope they’ll go on from here and feature with yourself and the others in a Big Orkney CD some day. Thanks for posting. What a great place Orkney is!
best to all,
Norman

I find myself holding back a small tear when I read about you talking of such simple things as passion and joy. So often the honest simplicity of life gets overlooked for the sake of the glitter and the glory! Those girls in Loomashun are the salt of the earth of every day and they are having a blast and will be so encouraged by your generous comments. Thank you. Best regards. Frank.
