Hi, mandomad. Doesn't sound daft at all. I found it hard to imagine before Llanstock, and certainly couldn't have imagined anything quite as good as it turned out.

We're inventing it as we go along! Depends v. much on who's there, but the important thing to me at each of the gatherings so far has been the possibility of everyone contributing to the whole, in whatever way, either by playing, singing, reciting, listening (lots of this required), sharing anecdotes (musical and otherwise), dancing, (with or without veils, Patrish!) providing cookies / cakes / beer / beef jerky / chocolate... have I forgotten anything? Oh yes, lending capos and plectrums, singing each others' songs...

So, your answer is... whatever you want.
