Well this was a magic time for all involved in the playing and singing along . That means ; everyone . The great energy of folk music being in a town (Nelson New Hampshire) for decades on centuries makes all the difference in the energy around the music. We had a party the night before where everyone played tons of different things . On the morning of the concert we got to pairing down to what worked for each song and no more. The wonderful thing of playing with musicians of this level is no one puts in more then adds to the song .It was like a recording session. Most times less really is a lot more . Being 30 years since some of us had played together smiling along sometimes is enough .
         As was said the concert was sold out . Maybe a fifth of the room had worked or helped at the Folkway . They were all asked to stand. It was really a coming together of what the Folkway was. No pins were dropped but we would have heard them if they had been . I play a bit louder when Im leading so I was glad that I only had two songs to lead. I did My Dearest Dear ( The song related to The blackest Crow ) and because we had such a room of singers I led "The Country Life " because I had to hear that group sing it .. The Watersons would love this crowd . Even with a full room I could hear our own annimatarra like a bell, singing .
          We played an extra hour for over half the audience and got to driving home at midnight . Lui had a recording session today so I drove on to Litchfield . Nelson to home was four hours so Im a bit light headed today .
          The list of who played the Folkway must be put together . It is a wonderful story and I hope its told and soon .
            All the best to all here , Guy
