Hunters Moon always pull a large audience. There is a great DVD of them you can get from Morris Dancers of England website. HM also appear in the Dark Dorset book Calendar Customs which I recommend to anyone who is interested in traditions like morris dancing on May Day. See the Dark Dorset website for more info.
The first tune is Cuckoo's Nest and the second is Chameleon (Shave The Monkey do a version of it on their Mad Arthur album, if you've ever heard of them?!)
It's wonderful to see so many traditions alive and growing!

Is it weird that I find this kind of spooky?
