KEMP'S KONNECTIONS

• Winningen Tanzgruppe, with whom we shared our 50th anniversary weekend in July 2006, and also a top boffo weekend at the 10th international Folkloristik Festival in Winningen in 1998
• Fiddlesticks, our local women's clog side
• Golden Star, our local mixed side
• Shitwitches, our local Christmas entertainment
• Westrefelda Morris, a new(-ish) side from Westerfield near Ipswich, Suffolk (UK)
• John Maher's (Overseas Bagman of the Morris Ring) now extensive and highly interesting Morris Ring web site
• e-mails of all know (Ring) Morris sides, courtesy of John Maher
• The Morris Dancer, the Morris Ring magazine online
• Australian Morris Ring, whose newsletter is at Australian Morris Ring Newsletter. Other Oz Morris sides include Hot for Joe, a Border side, who our pal Paul thinks are a bit scarry, Adelaide Morris Men, also still under construction, the Hedgemonky Morris and Morrice Rampant
• Information about the Morris Ring
• The Morris Cafe, aimed at Characters, Animals, Fools, Etc (hence Cafe - obvious acronym, no?). It is non-Morris-organisation-specific and non-gender-specific - in other words, anyone with an interest in "the peripherals" of Morris is more than welcome. Rather than try to explain it here, everyone is invited to have a look at the site.
• Jeff Biglers morris side web pages link site (a bit slow sometimes)
• Jeff Biglers morris side web pages link site (quicker, as it doesn't have the photos)
• Bristol Morris Men's sordid site
• Rich Holmes Morris miscellany, mainly north American, but plenty of humour (but not humor) and off-beat information. Well worth a visit
• The Pipe and Tabor players website
• Morris Dancing Discussion List (MDDL) webpages
• Morris Dancing Discussion List (MDDL) Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) about Morris
• Visitors guide to Britain, and only slightly misleading
• Bristol Morris Men's splendid site
• An enormous Musician jokes page*
• Just to show what great-hearted people accordionists are (unlike banjo players), there is also a site of anti-accordion jokes put together by accordion players the Deffner site
• Chris Walshaw's abc (ascii notation of trad/folk music)page, with lots of good links and tune accessing
• Visitors guide to Britain, and only slightly misleading
• Folk Music of England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and America, - MIDI, Lyrics and Information.
• NetStrider - music, folksongs and Ballads of the Appalachians and England.
• Taylor's Traditional Tunebook - traditional favourites
• Folk Music and Carolan Resource Center - songbooks.
• Albert Alchemy, an entertainer available all year round (from Worcester) with a well designed and colourful web site with links and pictures. Worth a visit, or so he tells me.

(* our Derek loves the Bodhran jokes page - if you meet him, it's worth checking he's heard them all. Even if he has, he just adores being reminded of them lest he forgets)
