Hey Bettynh , Barbara & Furtanito,
I can see where Bettys concerns are coming from.I have served a long & frequently insommniacted apprentship to rowdy & debauched camp sites,all over Europe ,& elsewhere,Fleadh Cheoil Na Heireann ( R O I )must be the indoor & outdoor International champions of intoxifcation & debauched campsite & streetside jollification.No such discomforts exist at MerleFest in my experience.I have no doubt but you & your son will be in the right place for mutual music fullfilment & in my fifty years of experience , its as near as I have ever gotten to " Heavens Gate " & I wish to you & your son that youll feel likewise on Sunday pm as you wind you weary way to home.
