Thread Name: Old Songs Festival 2002, back from
Subject: RE: BS: Back from Old Songs
I certainly agree with all the comments about the high lights of Old Songs. On Friday I had one of my own. I went into the Dutch Barn on Friday Evening to view the Photos of FoxHollow. Having gone to FoxHollow for many years the photos brought back a lot of memories. (Mostly good). The youthful appearance of the performers from '67 and '70 did put the passage of time into prespective. (I certainly haven't changed that much since then?!) When I returned to my seat at the main stage, Chris and Maire were just starting. Sitting there listening to the sound of the guitar and harp while looking up at the trees swaying to the breeze I was brought back to that other festival in a hollow a little further North. Old Songs is not Foxhollow, no festival could ever be, but it's the closest I,ll come to in my lifetime. Thanks Andy and all your crew for keeping that magical spirit alive and well
