This group is fabulous. Fierce and wild. Reminds me of swooping crows. Just brilliant. Their dancing is fearless and exciting.

This is so fabulous. Really dynamic dancing style. I've just been to my first session with a side in Kent, I hope I'll get to see you guys dance live one day 🖤

The Gong Scourers. They are the closest border side to me, and so far the people I've met have been lovely.

Yes, we were keen to maintain a reasonable disguise but make sure it's within the bounds defined by the morris organisations.Black is still a core colour but some hints of blues or greens similar to the appearance of corvids which has always been a key element of Beltane. In the early days we were said to resemble crows and later a dance was conceived about the Ravens of Blackingstone, an old Dartmoor tale. Hope to see yoi again sometime! 👍🍺🎻🎩🎶

I love those black eyes, like corvid wings. And intimidating in all the right ways. Excellent adjustment i think, very well done!

@@Thelmageddon Thanks for the feedback. Aim is to retain a disguise element and level of mystery and elements of corvid appearance but reduce overall facial coverage to meet the new guidelines from the morris organisations. It took a lot of discussions but the whole side and most fans are very supportive of the change

I think I saw betaine border morris at the Wimborne folkfestival. Very good dancers but I seem to also remember lots of terrified children, is that part of morris dancing?

Terrified children? Have you seen what the average child has access to? This is healthy!
