Subject: RE: Tips for playing at farmers markets etc?
Our farmer's market here in Anchorage has a place where the patrons can sit and eat food from the many vendors present. The small stage is tarped and the sound system is quite good. I perform there occasionally as my busy schedule permits during the summer months. And these venues always seem to fill up with friendly, appreciative audiences. I routinely sell quite a few CD's also. Farmer's markets are enjoyable and I would encourage any folk performer to give them a try.

Best wishes,
Mike
