Whoops, hit the wrong button.
Hi Deb & hi to you too Murry.
It's great to hear that Passim's is once again supporting Trad music, it's been a long time, probably a least 2 decades since they really had their heart & soul there. Somehow the singer/songwriter phase came along & pushed a good bit of trad & other styles & types of music out the door. Passium's used to host hoots, some of which where to be known locally as "Peter Johnson Night", when alot of folk & trad singers & musicians, local & otherwise, would perform & everyone would party together. It was a hot bed of great music where you'd catch American, English, Scottish, Irish & traditional sea music & this was at a time when folk music was in a slump & was hard to find.
Hopefully I'll be able to find a way down there, I'd love to hear folk & trad music seeping out of their walls & floors again & seeing some old friends at the same time.
Thanks for the update.
Barry
