We really like the area {ocean, mountains, unspoiled open places) But I'm ascared I'll have no folkie shanty loonies to play and sing with. Any folks down there get togrther just to sing and have fun? |

I have no regrets! There are opportunities all along the coast. Best wishes for your happy relocation. |

It's slightly mis-named; it's a general-purpose folk festival similar to NEFFA. I'm going to try to go this year, if I can get the time. melinda from Albany |

08 Feb 07 - 01:39 PM (#1961366) Subject: RE: music in maine From: JudyB We're located part way between Portland and Camden, and are involved with a once-a-month Coffee House in Brunswick (about an hour south of Camden). There's lots of other things going on - that's just the one I know best. Charley probably has more contacts - maybe we can chat after the next shanty session at the Press Room. All the best, JudyB |
