In two days, Saturday night, I'll be heading in to the Chicago suburbs to hear a concert at the big theater at the College Of Dupage (Dupage County). The performers are a fine bunch of old friends, Michael Smith (as Lee Hays), Mark Dvorak (as Pete Seeger), Barbara Barrow-Smith (as Ronnie Gilbert) and Tom Dundee (as Fred Hellerman).

Collectively, the are known as W E A V E R M A N I A !!!

Next month the group is doing their show at the OLD TOWN SCHOOL OF FOLK MUSIC in Chicago and (get this) FRANK HAMILTON---once a member of the Weavers (and a founder of the O.T.S. of Folk Music)--- will be the "opening act". Somehow, I think Frank just may join the other four for a few songs. Yep, that's the same Frank Hamilton who adds his two centavos here at Mudcat on occasion.

Anyhow, this info seemed it might fit into this thread pretty nicely.
