FOLK TRAIN GALLERY - 2004
| 27
January 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) Our outing with m_c_cajun coincided with dire warnings of snow storms and, judging by the phone calls I received beforehand, asking whether the Folk Train was still running, some people were obviously worried - especially those from the Dore area! What they missed was a terrific evening on the train and in The Rambler, enjoyed by band and audience alike. |

(Click on the picture for the full series) Fagan's Back
Room Band comprised of a fine group of
musicians and singers from legendary folk session venue, Fagan's (to be
found at the bottom of Broad Lane, Sheffield). The only problem - my camera batteries gave out!. |

April 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) Airs &
Graces. Got them at last! After the "bit
of a misunderstanding"
earlier in the year, the promise that Airs & Graces would appear in
the April slot was finally
fulfilled. It was worth the wait! |

May 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) The Sheffield
Folk Chorale. It's something of a
logistics problem to accomodate the Folk Chorale on the Folk Train but,
that aside, we were treated to a fine selection of songs from around
the world. |

June 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) Sheffield
City Morris. City Morris were
let down by the June weather for the first time in several years but
the Dunkerque Spirit prevailed. |

September 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) Minnie Moosika. First time on the Folk Train, Minnie Moosika kept us
entertained with an exciting mix of music from the Klezmer tradition
and from Eastern Europe. |

October 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) On the eve of the Sheffield
Folk Festival we gave Folk Train goers a selection of some of
the local singers, musicians and dancers who would take part in the
festival. |

November 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) Fingers crossed - after July's cancellation - but I didn't
need to worry! An excellent evening, as ever, from Dave Young and The
Little Bigfoot Band. |

December 2004
(Click on the picture for the full series) Something different for Christmas I promised - something
different is what we got! What a fantastic evening with the New Orleans Strollers! The band said
they really enjoyed it and would like to come again. |
