Amos! Are you going to be there this year? I hope so. We may not get to the southern part of the west coast of the USA on this big trip and I would like Wakana to get the chance to meet you. Are you bringing your lovely wife?

I'm here, I'm here! Bill is right, I sometimes cannot check in every day, but since I am doing programming for the Getaway, I will be around as much as possible.

We appreciate all your input; please be aware that we will not be putting the schedule grid together for some time. Rita, Bill, Charlie(in fact, most of the usual suspects) are involved with the Washington Folk Festival, FSGW's biggest single event, and so we will be busy through the first weekend in June with that.It also helps to wait until the registrar is in place, so we can see who is coming this year. However, PLEASE feel free to send workshop suggestions, info on your own talents, etc. to me or to Rita. It would be easier for us if you would PM me rather than communicate only through the thread(s); this thread alone is now over 400 entries(!) and I do not want to miss anybody.

Every year I think, "how can it get better than my memories of last year?" and every year holds new and wonderful times at the Getaway. Since I've been going evey year for over three decades, I feel confident in predicting a wonderful time, and I am looking forward to seeing you all.

Carly

Stephen-- I hate to interrupt all this evil planning with boring routine..*grin*...but as summer progresses, there will be threads about Getaway workshop ideas....

This year, Carly will be doing a large part of the schedule, assisted by Rita, who has done most of it for the past 5 years..(and a couple others. Carly is not on everyday, but she'll no doubt be happy to have a list of ideas. (I don't think we've had yodeling for ages!)

There's gonna be so much talent at this years Getaway that we'd have to run for 3 weeks to use it all!

Hey SINS -- bring a hibachi or maybe just aluminumumium foil for engine-top cookery and you could have the first drive-over restaurant. Stuff like "Possibly Possum Teryaki" or "Fox 'Flounder'" - YUM!

Jacqui, you need me to bust a rhyme for ya, just gimme da whirred!

Sorta like:

It's curry for breakfast, curry for lunch
And ice cream in the loo, cuz I got a hunch
That buttholes be flamin', on you an' on me
When it's curry for dinner after curry for tea
And if the ice cream is curry, at least it's cold
You might wonder if the thunder from down under's gettin' old
Curious? Curry us, that's what itz about!
In da loo, vindaloo, it all come out.

Leadfingers - I have saved a seat for you in my car. We go from the Getaway to Tinker's in NJ to Linn and Tom's in Portsmouth (the Press Room), to my place in Maine for a Song Circle. Linn and Tom, Micca and Catsphiddle are also included - van seats 7 and I will have a roof thing to hold our stuff. Free meals mostly and a place to sleep in relative warmth and comfort if not privacy. Your own room in Maine. PM me.

I am hoping to get over for a couple of weeks either side of the Getaway to meet East Coast Catters and , if possible , do a few gigs as well . Is my best bet starting a thread looking for places I can crash , or what ?? . I am still looking for a cheap flight deal so do not as yet have ANY fixed plans . Also , how do I go about offering my services for a whistle workshop , assuming I am allowed to do that !

If Kendall gives any clues, it's 50s rock and 90s rap for him. Knowing is much worse!

EG - you are neither innocent nor little. But no orifices are involved...as far as I know. I have my own set of fetishes. Can't speak for the other "ladies".

I think I prefer not knowing - but tell us this: are orifices involved?

SINS,
Xander is prepared for the worst; he will be wearing full-body armour. Unfortunately, the armour he intends to use is MY body, but then you wouldn't hurt an innocent little Greek, would you? (blinks beguilingly).
