Subject: RE: Old Songs - YES!: Part II
Piglet, you know people now! If you go, just stop by the Folk Legacy booth and mention Mudcat, or look for the t-shirts.

As for the festival, the schedule is a bit too complicated to post. There are 10 areas, not counting the scheduled jams and the Children's Corral. One area has dancing going on all day, both days. The dancing includes Playford dances, French and Breton dance, Swing dance, English Country dance (Sun, 110 - 12), and huge contra dances after the concert on Fri and Sat nights.

While the folk music may not be the early music you're familiar with, the festival is FUN. There's always something going on, whether it's scheduled or folks just sit around talking and/or singing.
