Thread Name: Old Songs Festival 2002, back from
Subject: RE: BS: Back from Old Songs
I should post a long screed about the wonderfulness of this year's Old Songs, but words (or maybe energy) fail me. Thanks to Kendall, Jeri, Sinsull, Hollowfox and all the many more who stopped by to visit the Burrow and left me with such congenial memories. So great to see and hear Kendall playing and beginning to sing again...don't strain it Kendall, the voice WILL come back, I firmly believe. High points for me... Chris Newman and Beppe Gambetta doing unbelievable things with guitars (together); getting to play Chris' wonderful OM-42, and better yet hearing him play accompaniments to my singing on it; the Dave Van Ronk workshop was superb...what a bunch of great stories. Just the chance to spend that much time with my family and the "chucklings" was sooo fine. Charlie, if OS sounded so dry to you, I wish you coult have been there thursday evening....we dam near drowned.
