Thread Name: Ozcatters meet at 1-5 April 2010 National?
Subject: RE: Ozcatters meet at 1-5 April 2010 National?
I'll certainly be spending time in the stockcamp at Bush Traditions events & probably at other times, but as the Stockcamp is not on the program it's hard to say when. I was lucky enough to walk past one year (last year??) when Martyn Wyndham-Read & Danny Spooner were singing.
So far the only suggestions for meetings are Hrothgar's Hymn Session (a few of us!), Session bar around 1pm (JennieG), & stockcamp (Andrez, no times).
Most Sydney catters are singers (Bob Bolton, Allen in Oz, Bodgie & Squeezeme are also musos) so will often be seen around singing sessions & workshops.
any more suggestions?

Bush Traditions newsletter re NFF
There will be sessions in the Session Bar each morning at 9.30 hosted by Moir Holmes & family doing the slow tunes, followed by Settler Session and Dance tunes at 11.00 am. This year will see the fifth book of tunes plus CD printed for these sessions at the National. Together they contain over 300 tunes.
There are also plans to organise informal sessions in the Stockcamp each day. This has happened last couple of years and the Stockcamp and the Festival are keen that it should continue to happen. Are there any among you who can put a small group together to form the core of a session in the Stockcamp featuring Australian tunes? Let me know.
