Thread Name: Indian Neck Memories
Subject: RE: Indian Neck Memories
I/ve attended the Indian Neck gathering a few times, and I can guarantee there was nothing political about it. It is not a festival in the common sense of the word..it is a gathering of folk musicians, and whether or not you are invited depends on whether or not the promoter has ever heard of you. As far as I know, there is no attempt to divide the folk community, it is simply a matter of very limited space. It is not open to the public, so the only revenue is the fee you pay, and, I've spent a hell of a lot more than that on a weekend that didnt provide me with a fraction of the pleasure that I got at Indian Neck.The title "Snob Hollow" is quite un kind and not true.
