It seems that this years coming festival will be held from the 7th to 10th of June of 2007. That's a Thrusday start. I'm not an insider so I guess it's OK ;eak what I do know.
"Fisher Poets" (for the first time that I know of) Geno Leech, a commerical fisherman from I believe the Pacific Northwest & Moe Bowstern fisherwoman who fishes out of Alaska will be part of the line up along with some regular favorites Lou Killen, Jerry Bryant, Ellan Cohn, Clifff Haslam, Lee Murdock, Jon Bartlett & Rika Ruebsaat (fantastic symposium presenters from last year), Bob Webb, Jeff Warner & he Chantey Staff. Master Portuguese Fado singer Ana Vinagre will also be there. It seems that they'll be adding instrument workshops this year too. They're still contacting proformers so this is not a complete list. I guess we'll be waiting with "baited breath" to hear who & what else will be add to this exciting line up. I know that with this early heads up people will be blotting their calanders for the weekend, mine is. I'd like to thank the Seaport for their new early warning program & for the new infusion, it looks to be one of the best festivals in years.
Stay tuned
