I remember seeing the WH & V Morris many moons back at the Beltaine Bash in Mile End, London. What I remember of them then isn't what I'm seeing of them on you tube. They used to have a fiery passion and raw aggression to their dance, something that got the blood flowing. It all seems just a little bit 'tired' now (sorry). Whatever happened to the enthusiaism? (Dodgy spelling, I know). Please don't take any offence W H & V, none is meant, I'm just saying what I see. BB
Goths, you say? Errrm, I think that's just the type of clothing and face-blacking relevant to Border Morris, which is the style of Morris this is, as opposed to Cotswold, who wear white, and wave hankies.
Great video... my favourite side, shot in a farm near me. I might visit this year. Thank you.
