JIM HUTCHINS

Date of Birth:

15 August 1957

Place of Birth:

Edinburgh, Scotland.

Occupation:

Pharmacist

Year began the Morris:

2001

What was it that made you try the Morris?

I saw Trigg at my local pub, particularly liked the folk session afterwards, and thought......"I could do that!"

Are you a Dancer, Musician, Both or other?

Both/Accoustic Bass Guitar

What made you persevere with it?

The discovery of just how much fun we have!

Who you have danced with except Trigg?

None

What is your preferred Dance Tradition?

Fieldtown (so far)

What is your favourite Dance?

Favourite to watch - Nutting Girl. Favourite to dance - Bodmin Riding.

What 'High Spot' do you remember since you started?

All of the sessions at Blisland.

I am the Trigg Morriss Novice (although many "new" dancers have actually been with Trigg for years!), and have been a dancer for only one season. You may note that I have no designs on my Baldrick as I haven't earned them yet. Maybe this year!
In the seventies, I played bass guitar in a couple of local "rock" bands and also played in working mens clubs all over the Scottish Lowlands. For nearly 20 years, I barely touched the bass, then a friend took me to the Minerva in Plymouth. I spent the next six months at late night music sessions every Wednesday night and treated myself to an Accoustic Bass.
What I enjoy most about Trigg is the chance to play music I wouldn't hear in the normal Scottish and Irish Folk Traditions.
