My best friends Jon Berger and Kalia Kliban are coming from sunny California. He's a melodeon player/fiddler/singer, she's a Cotswold morris dancer, Appalachian clogger, and occasional caller. Their photo is on Jon's home page here. They are both on Apple Tree Morris in Sebastopol, CA (as am I, in an occasional sort of way). They are both wonderful people.

It will be their very first English festival and they won't have a clue where to go/what to do (I rather expect, though they do have English friends and may therefore be escorted by locals), so if you happen to meet them, point them to the best pubs, please!
