Just the finest, funnest, musicest, pickin'est, gathering of 'Catters anywhere on earth. It just seems to draw. It is actually a annual function of the Folk Society of Greater Washington, DC., and they very graciously allow us 'Catters to piggyback on their event. It works out very well for both of us. And they are as wonderful a bunch of folkies as you will find anywhere. I wouldn't miss my trip back East to visit with these wonderful friends for anything.

This year it looks like the Gaelic Goddess, Aine, will be meeting me in Chicago area and hitchin' a ride. In the past Mudcatters from all over the US, Canada, England, etc. have come. You will not regret it. Sides, boy, if'n ole Mick can drag his sorry, big Irish arse all the way from Michigan, then you can surely hop up the road from Virginny.

It will be happening October 17-19. You can check out another thread with links to the FSGW site HERE.

It would be great to sing with you.

Mick
