Hey, thanks a bunch, Ebbie! That's a big help on a number of fronts.
How about festival workshops? Any advice, anyone, on those? What should one expect?
Another thing I like to do is visit the top music stores in towns I travel to. Where does one go to buy a guitar in Tacoma? Are there any folklore organizations to visit?
Thanks, Russ, as well. Haven't been to Philly in quite a while -- but I'll head over to the Brandywine site but quick. (I once actually lived -- very briefly -- on Brandywine Drive in Marlton, NJ.
