Okay--I thought you were recommending an additional event to do in the area but perhaps assumed we all knew what/where it was. I didn't know the name of the group.

I'm back home after a long day, a funeral in the morning, then the festival all afternoon. We left a little after 5 (sorry I missed you Uncle Phil. Will you be there tomorrow?) The temperatures may be cooler this year, but if anyone ever wanted a prime location to do any Irish bog reenactments, this would be the venue! The humidity is high and the smell of the rotting vegetation is pretty strong. You walk carefully through all of the muddy passages between tents, looking out for the standing water, and when you sit down you do it slowly, in case the chair decides to keep sinking backward. Jed was in a great location, the first tent, but unfortunately it's also at the lowest elevation and poor drainage. Five or six hours this afternoon was enough for today. I did get to hear Jed--he had a great routine going with a fiddler friend (Brian McNeil?) who he called up to stage several times to accompany "songs you don't know." Very talented, all of you!

There's a possibility of getting over there for a while on Sunday afternoon. I see Jed is performing at 4 and Smithfield Fair performing at 5. My son has to be there at UTA at 6 to begin a week of a residential camp, so maybe we'll head out a little early.
