January 13 2007. From the Straw bear website : Old Glory have been performing Molly in the Waveney Valley tradition since 1994. Their dances are, with one exception, their own; they have been devised following such generally agreed tenets of Molly dancing as exist, Old Glory are anxious to support reviving traditions to which their dancing is relevant, and as such welcome the opportunity provided by the Straw Bear Festival to perform and to meet other dancers. The male dancers and female musicians may be easily recognised by their black overcoats and a solemn demeanour, which perhaps belies the thoroughly good time they all have.
