Karen, we will not be going to Old Songs this year. We used to go to Jenny Brook festival in VT every year until we started going to Old Songs (same weekend), and decided to go back to Jenny Brook this year for a change. Mostly because one of my favorites, Lynn Morris is going to be there. She's been incapacitated as a result of a stroke the last few years and is finally recovering enough to perform, so I want to see her. One of the sweetest female voices in bluegrass.

Anyway, we'll miss you guys and will be back next year.

By the way, the first song on this CD (The Letter) was written two years ago at Old Songs at the Bob Franke workshop. I never got the chance to play it for feedback at the followup session -- too many people vying for the chance and me too shy to raise my hand or too emotional about the song or something. Anyway, you can hear it on our myspace page. It came out pretty good.

Have fun, and thanks for the comments.
