Tried to post earlier but server timed out.

Anywho, Paul and Greg made landfall at last night's Press Room session -- great to see (and HEAR!) them. Both the session and The Press Room were a bit quieter than usual, the session probably because of NEFFA and The Press Room, why? because the sun's out? The newly blooming spring flowers were shivering!

Had a few other long lost friends show up last night, too -- Helene Jones who used to sing with us in the '80s (I think she moved to England not long after the two Great Bay Folklife Festivals of the early '90s) and Dianne Lavoie who doesn't appear often enough.

Looks like (according to Facebook status posts and comments) despite NEFFA, we'll have a lively crowd today.

We'll do what we can to warm things up a bit (since the weather sure isn't cooperating).
