Ah, Mike, Micca, glad to hear from you. Mind boggling to realize how very far you've traveled.

Sorcha, I don't know about anyone else's pictures. Bill D's are in our computer but need editing, and he's too wiped out to do anything but vegetate. (Still? No, again.) We were in a two-day craft fair, with setup on Friday. A bit much for the weekend after the Getaway. I'll "remind" him about getting more pictures up.

And yeah, biglappy & Dani, we're a pretty eclectic group. LaMarca said she knew she would fit in, because at her first Open Sing the song I did was "Rocky Raccoon."

Did anyone go to LaMarca's "Forbidden Pleasures" workshop, last year or the year before? It was a workshop for singing all the stuff you really like that is definitely NOT folk music.

Of course LaMarca's knowledge of folk music makes me feel like a kindergartner.... So does her knowledge of rock music.... You should hear her sing Jefferson Airplane/Starship's "White Rabbit".

Bill used to have a T-shirt that said "Uncontrite Modal Folker." Can't remember if he actually had a T that said "Purist Snob" but he wears the title proudly. :-) But he sings 50's pop, the pre-Bill Haley kind. If it was sung on "Your Hit Parade," Bill probably knows it.

Looking forward to more memories from Micca & Mike and anybody else. Sort of makes it last longer than just the one weekend, huh?

(Well, let's see who makes the first second crack about folkie viagra....)
