Subject: RE: 50 years of the National Folk Festival
strangely enough, I knew you were referring to the Australian National Folk Festival!

I started with the 2000 Festival, but my good friend Phyl Lobl was involved with the first & is re-creating several concerts.

Trocadero Fri 1.40 - 2.40 Wasn't that a time? Phyl Lobl & friends

Budawang - Sat 2-3.40, Founder's concert - cast includes Phyl Lobl & Margaret RoadKnight

Trocadero - Sun 11.20 - 1.10 Songwriter's concert - Revisiting the First NFF & it's impact on the future

Her good friend Margaret RoadKnight is also involved, as is the Victorian Folk Music Club (founded in 1959 as the Bush Music Club)

see you there, Bruce!
