I also send my gratitude to John and all of the other folks
who have put so much heart and hard work into this festival.
There's nothing you can do about the weather, massive auto accidents,
or sports events (yesh, I wouldn't think that folkies would
be swayed by guys in soft body armor tossing an odd shaped
ball around!) - the structure and talent at the festival were fine.
I just wish there had been more folks to enjoy it.
Hopefully next year. DC folks, we need you.
(and all those others who go the the Getaway)
