Subject: RE: Scandinavian music (was: mostly Finnish)
Now, Jeanie, here's my plan for your next summer, includes a fair portion of Finnish (well, not only...) music:
Haapavesi Folk June 28th - July 4th (klik for the list of performers, unfortunately in Finnish only)
Kihaus in Rääkkylä July 8th - 11th (programme still under "construction", that's why the pages are not up to date)
Kaustinen Festival July 10th - 18th
After that you could - ad lib - hitchhike through Sverige, see the rune stones along the way, and finally attend the Tønder Fv;-).
Btw, notice, folks, that there is a distinction between 'Scandinavian' and 'Nordic': the latter should be used when The Finnish and the Saami are included (beside the Danish, Farish, Icelandic, Norwegian and Swedish).
