The Musical Saw Players and Friends Old-Time music festival and picnic held on the 3rd weekend of July every year at Roaring Camp CA(near Santa Cruz). Lots of jamming with all style and levels of players in a beautiful redwood forest. Kids activities, a steam powered locomotive,mostly old time string band style, musical saw players from all over the world(China, Ghana, Czech Republic) and last year a contingent of teenaged girls from Japan who had an encyclopedic knowledge of American Music. This event is consistently the most fun of the festival season for my family and I.
