March: Mad Hatters and Snake Chasers

Every year I like to give a big welcome to the month of March! It seems to be the month everybody loves to hate! Normally, I do this during the first show of the month, so I'm a bit late.

Nonetheless, this week, March will be our topic, complete with Mad Hatters and Snake-Chasers! We'll see if I can maybe help you get a different perspective on this time of the year. We'll be talking about the folklore of the March Hare. Plus, I have an Irish Story of Magick which I'll be reading called "The Boy and the Hare".

We can't forget that March 5th was sacred to the Egyptian Goddess Isis! And, of course we would be remiss for not mentioning March 17th - which we will do!

And by the way; this week The Spiral Dance celebrates our 13th anniversary! Our first show was right around March 11, 2000.

I hope you enjoy this week's show!

Some of the music you'll hear on this week's show include;Incubus Fairport Convention: "Who Knows Where the Time Goes"; Kellianna: "The Return of the Sun"; Steeleye Span: "The Hills of Greenmore"; Loreena McKennitt: "Stolen Child"; Incredible StringBand: "The Mad Hatters Song" and more.
