Oh, yeah, the music! Well, at the Mercer Museum (mentioned in my post above), there is an annual Folk Fest there on Mother's Day (US) weekend, emphasizing "living history". This includes not only showcases of folk music and storytelling in various Early American styles, but also craft and artisan demonstrations AND an encampment of Revolutionary War re-enactors (6th Pennsylvania Regiment, who also play fife-and-drum marches).

There. It's Mudcat-relevant now! (I don't have to talk about the musicals made from Michener's books, do I?) (or Chinese music as relates to Buck?)

P.S> – A request: When you describe your place of interest, please remember to include the name of the town, state, country, etc., where it's located, in case we want to go take the tour! Thanks!
