FOAOTMAD member Dick Glasgow, from Northern Ireland, has recently started an internet forum and also a web page featuring old time.

The web page is www.causewaymusic.co.uk/usotm.html

The forum is oldtimehammer.proboards76.com/index.cgi

Both are Well worth a look and he is 'pushing' FOAOTMAD as an excellent means of taking in interest in oldtime , particularly if you live 'this side of the Pond'. To take part in the forum you need to register as a member ( a simple process) but you can read what is there as a 'guest'. The web page has lots of links to both bands and audio-visual clips.

N. B. You might also be interested in their 'Sacrewell' website.

And while you are in that frame of mind, may I remind you about Colm Daly's 'Sacrewell' website which offers some similar features.
To view it you need to go to www.sacrewell.myfamily.com and use the universal login of ‘sacrewell_camp’ (note the underscore) and ‘visitor’ as password.
Or you can register as yourself!
