Subject: RE: Festival of Trad. Music, Eisteddfod-Nov 5-7, 2010
In addition to the excellent musicians signed up to perform, some outstanding musicians are attending the festival. A few have been asked to participate in a workshop. See the schedule at www.folkfestny.org. Others will be listening, jamming, and sharing tunes. Someone told us that what is exciting about this weekend is mixing with the performers and hanging out with people whose recordings you have bought, etc.
If you have not registered yet, there are still rooms available. Go to www.folkfestny.org. There are also day rates.
Unfortunately Benny Graham had to cancel; he is ill. John Roberts, winner of the 2008 Eisteddfod award, gracefully agreed to appear. Debbie Lan has been added to the program.
We will have more vendors this year, so bring $$$.
The weather forecasters tell us it may be brisk or cold outside. If you don't want to hike, or play golf or tennis, there is a heated indoor swimming pool and there are spa services, if you can tear yourself away from the music.
