My favorite part of the Fest has always been and continues to be the
WORKSHOPS.

This year I caught, among others, Jamie Laval, and Pirate Wendy.

The jams at Hospitality are great when you need to be in there to chill.
The many singalongs at Intiman Courtyard are wonderful for someone like me who has no access to song circles.

The Fest is just so BIG you need to be selective.

I agree with Stewart that the NorthWest Stage is a great place to be, and you would be hard pressed to say the performers don't do folk.

Phil and Vivian Williams were very much present and you would be hard-pressed to say they are not traditional.
