Subject: RE: Report on NW Folklife Fest, Seattle
I missed most of the festival this year, sadly. I was there working at the Dusty Strings booth on Saturday, and by the time I got off of working in the instrument builder's room I was ready head home for some silence. Couldn't go on Sunday, and Monday I performed. I think we had one of the last sets at the festival: 7:30 on Monday night. But we were in a really nice auditorium and had a nice audience. By that time of the weekend, the only people who are still going to shows are the ones who really want to hear folk music. We put out 25 copies of our demo CD for folks to pick up and they disappeared in about a minute, so I guess they liked us OK.
