Thanks, George. Next meeting of the Folk (who would be delighted to hear and sing with a Scottish traditional singer) is 4 September. Our 43rd Anniversary is the next event on 18 September. Both events are at the Friends Meeting House, 1090 W 70th Ave (just off Granville) and start at 8 sharp. The Vancouver Morris Men meet to drink informally after their practice on Tuesday nights at the Billy Bishop Legion Pub (at Cornwall and Laburnum) starting at about 9.30 pm. The Jericho Folk Club meets Tuesdays at the Jericho Sailing Club at 8 and has floor spots (2 songs if you're there early enough) and 2nd half guests. Interested Mudcatters are invited to PM me about the Fall Folk party Rika and I put on every year, this year on 21 September in New Westminster.

Two further points: 1. Whistler is 2 1/2 hrs north of Vancouver on a winding mountain road. There is one train a day (to North Vancouver) and buses to Vancouver. If you're staying at Whistler, driving to an event in Vancouver and back is thus hardly possible in one evening. 2. The Rogue Folk Club is mostly a performance space with a series of concerts and a newsletter. I don't know how possible it will be to sing at any event they put on. Give Steve Edge a call (his number is probably on the Rogue site).
