Thread Name: Old Songs Festival 2001, How did it go
Subject: RE: Old Songs, How did it go
I had a wonderful time... sorry I didn't meet more of you! One of the highlights for me was the Saturday night sing. (I think I was sitting behind you for awhile Barry - you have a magnificent voice!!) Unfortunately I am a weakling- I had to sneak out at 1am and head back to the hotel.

I do want to thank you all for a wonderful evening. The Patons did a superb job of hosting the sing. As a folk-dj I sometimes feel that the entire world is turning into singer-songwriters. It was wonderful to see such a good turnout of people who have a love for folk music. I guess you could call me a "lurker" on these boards, but I really felt proud to be considered a Mudcatter!

Also, I'm one of the few people that enjoyed the rain - it really isn't a festival without a good downpour!

I look forward to seeing you again next year, if not sooner!

Ron
