Subject: RE: UK Old Time Music festival - Feb 8-10 Gainsborough
Well, Folks, The Shivers are packing up the guitar and banjo and autoharp. We've got our raincoats and umbrellas and fedoras and chapeaus and two tones and bow ties, etc., etc. In short, everything we need to travel over to London on a jet airplane (ahem) to Liz's house and company of our chum Micca and play some tunes with you all.
    Terry (Leadfingers) Silver and the lovely and talented Mary Smith are playing at Maidenhead on Thursday night and Terry's invited us to do a floor spot, so off we'll go to see, drop by if you can.
    And next morning at the crack of noon or one we'll drive up the left hand side of the road to Gainsborough to see all the UK folks crazy enough to love old time music. Some of which like Mrs. Duck have come to see the crazy folkies of FSGW at the Getaway, and so I've got some idea what I'm getting into.
      In short, we're A1,acme and extra fine and "repairing to leave" (that's country for fixin' to go).
see you there, Gainsborough or Bust, you bet your monkey.
