Romani Roots Festival

Anyone get to this lovely few days in the Sussex downs last weekend?

old sussex folk Autumn folk-rhyme:

'Apples be ripe.
Nuts be brown.
Petticoats up.
Trousers down.'

Well the petticoats part was true enough. With added Griff-Rhys Jones for good measure.
Here's hoping Roots Around the World bring off something as exciting in next year's roma event.

And as for the 'Gridshell', what acoustics.
