I can't remember what song we (as "residents" at the Llandudno Folk Club) used to follow with the Rakes of Mallow but the first group I remember hearing doing it was a duo called Drops Of Brandy who were based (I think) in Mold and did a bit around North Wales. One of them was a tenor banjo player so it seemed a natural idea for me to nick when I started playing the same instrument (although in the end, I most often played that one on G/D melodeon). The game was always to see if you could speed it up and play faster than the audience could clap. It seems a bit silly looking back but it was fun at the time.
