Thread Name: Maldon [Vic] Folk Festival.
Subject: RE: Maldon [Vic] Folk Festival.
Maldon is a great friendly and still small festival. They take good care of their musicians too. We'll be there. We are old fogies and old folkies but we are giving a theme concert on "The Seven Deadly Sins" and it should be fun. Maldon can't afford overseas acts but they give good value with local and Melbourne talent and with a few performers from other Australian states. The town itself is quaint and pretty. There are rides, with music, on a vintage steam-train. Old-fashioned stuff like that. If the info. on the web-site is a bit weird, and I haven't looked this year, it's because they survive on a shoe-string. Please come along anyway. It will be worth the effort. We prefer the Maldon festival over all the others in Victoria -- even when we aren't on the bill. Look forward to seeing you.
