Thank you, Celtaddict, your response was gracious and warm. It certainly provides the background for how the day was planned.

Saturday's sing was a very good event and I do not wish to detract from the wonderful spirit that was experienced by all. I am glad that I was able to be there and appreciative of the many talents that were willing to share so freely of themselves. I am also appreciative of the many people who came to share their support both for the memory of a member of their extended music community, and for the event (the festival) which brings them together each year.

I have only attended the festival twice, but have found it to be an excellent event, quite deserving of wide-spread support. In fact, I have made a point of talking it up with friends who have not yet been, encouraging them to attend as well.

I certainly look forward to return trips to Mystic.
