I went to Clearwater about ten years ago. The festival was great, very well organized and lots of good music. What I will never forget waiting for the bus back to the parking lot and having Pete Seeger stand and sing with us for the extent of the wait. He just kept appearing different places with pick up groups of singers. It was amazing. I also got to hear John McCutchon, the Clancy's, Bright Morning Star, Tom Paxton, Guy and Candy Carawan, Pat Humphries . . . Dunno, but the music and the politics both were fine. I had my cake and ate it too.

Unfortunately this year I have a gig on the 19th doing civil war stuff. Ah me.
