Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Jeri Date: 02 Jan 11 - 05:53 PM I survived, but I'm gonna sleep tonight. I had a great time, and it was wonderful having so many folks there. I told Jacqui that intermission milling about felt a bit like Trafalgar Square on New Year's Eve--one could stand still and still be carried somewhere else in the room. I absolutely HATE crowds like that, but I was fine with that particular crowd, in that particular place. The music was sublime. Much of the performances felt a bit private, but the best music I've ever heard is about love, and intimacy masquerading as mind-reading, generosity, kindness, and humor, which combines and flows out as audible joy. In a welcoming home, with no sound system, you get to hear just how achingly exquisite voices and instruments can be. I'm sorry some folks I expected didn't or couldn't make it. Music after: I mostly listened. I really have to learn some songs. I haven't been trying because I don't have anywhere to sing them, but I miss having a repertoire at times like last night. I enjoyed listening to everyone else, and joining in when appropriate. Thanks to Cindy and Grey, and thanks to Jacqui and SINSULL who persevered despite her terminal status. I'm glad YOU survived too! |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Charley Noble Date: 02 Jan 11 - 05:19 PM Ypps! "an emergency gallbladder removal" But thanks for the info. Peter is supposed to be invulnerable to such bodily insults, like the rest of us. I'll have to find or create an appropriate get well card. This could be a challenge. Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: jacqui.c Date: 02 Jan 11 - 10:57 AM Peter is in hospital for an emergency gallbladder removal - did I set a trend last year? |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: SINSULL Date: 02 Jan 11 - 10:29 AM The calm before the storm. Coffee's on; bacon is frying; cats fed; dog fed. Everyone is still napping although someone was up earlier and showered. We had an amzing evening. Grey and Cindy performed everything fromtrasditional Irish whistle and fiddle tunes to Back When We Were All Machine, New Years Rounds, Song For October (requested by Capt. Morse. All of it was wonderful. The crowd was at least 25 - I wasn't quite prepared but we sorted it out. Desserts, desserts, desserts. All followed by a couple of hours of home grown music. Banjos, fiddles, guitars, concertina. A brilliant evening if I say so myself. Front and center were two boys (9 & 11 I think) who seemed to know many of the lyrics and shouted them out joyfully. Hope we see more of them. More later. |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Charley Noble Date: 02 Jan 11 - 10:27 AM Sins and Jacqui- It was really a fine evening. I always enjoy seeing what excellent musicians do when they are relaxed. We heard some wonderful tunes weaving back and forth, fine songs, and intriguing stories behind the tunes and songs. I also was impressed with the number of people who showed up who I'd never seen before, and how nicely they settled in to the informal singing session after the concert. I do treasure the moment where I could follow up Song for Gale with Midwatches, which shares its melody along with Nightrider's Lament. It was fun watching Cindy and Grey playing along with the melody's twists and turns. Looking forward to the next concert. Cheerily, Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: jacqui.c Date: 02 Jan 11 - 08:25 AM We had one hell of an evening. A full house, with a lot of new faces, and an excellent concert from Cindy and Grey. The after concert sing was very good - again, new faces and voices made it quite memorable. Kendall really got into the swing of things, jamming along with Cindy until just before 1am when we finally left for home. We've just woken up and will be heading out for breakfast with the crowd once Kendall's had his coffee. I'm hoping that some of the new attendees might find their way back for future events. |

|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Jeri Date: 01 Jan 11 - 04:46 PM Killing time until I can drive up there... Maybe I can go irritate Kendall in the "dinosaurs on the ark" thread. |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: SINSULL Date: 01 Jan 11 - 02:50 PM There is Charlie. I sent Bobbi an email earlier today. |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Charley Noble Date: 01 Jan 11 - 02:16 PM Bobbi Keppel is planning to come. Hope there is room for new attendees. Charley Noble |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: maeve Date: 01 Jan 11 - 08:28 AM So do I, Jacqui. So it goes. |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: jacqui.c Date: 01 Jan 11 - 08:26 AM Wish you could be there Maeve. |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: maeve Date: 01 Jan 11 - 08:19 AM Familiar territory here. I got up to cover the wood salvage from the rain. Have a lovely time with Cindy and Grey. |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: SINSULL Date: 01 Jan 11 - 08:11 AM refresh 3:36 AM, Maeve? I was sleepless last night too. Hate not being able to sleep. M |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: maeve Date: 01 Jan 11 - 03:36 AM I know you'll all have a marvelous time. Love, Maeve |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: jacqui.c Date: 31 Dec 10 - 10:35 PM I'll be making Key Lime Pie and maybe something else for the dessert pot luck. |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Charley Noble Date: 31 Dec 10 - 09:35 PM Excellent! 7 pm on the dot! Happy New Year! Charley Noble |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: SINSULL Date: 31 Dec 10 - 12:29 PM The weather looks good and we are expecting a good sized crowd if all of the newcomers make it. Haven't heard from Tami but she may be away for the holidays. I know Jeri needs a bed and some of the "fans" may too. Anyone else? I want to make sure you have clean sheets and towels. LOL Winter parking ban is 12AM to 6AM so if you are staying overnight park in the driveway or on the grass. All systems go. SINS |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Charley Noble Date: 29 Dec 10 - 08:18 AM Judy and I are still looking forward to attending this house concert. The weather is looking reasonable good for this time of year. We'll plan to bring some wine. Cheerily, Charley Noble |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: SINSULL Date: 28 Dec 10 - 11:33 AM Absolutely. Home now - the office threw me and my coughing out with very little sympathy. Inhaler is helping and I am off to bed for a while. |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Cuilionn Date: 28 Dec 10 - 11:00 AM Possible contingent from Tir na nOg may be there... we're still recovering from the three days we spent, just before Christmas, butchering our last two pigs. (Really, we ended up providing a "learning lab" for a young butcher who pretended to know a lot more than he actually did. The pigs were dispatched cleanly, but the rest was messy and exhausting.) I think a night out at SINSULL's with such stellar musicians might be just the thing to cleanse our spirits! Is there still room for two, possible four, more attendees? --Cuilionn |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Jeri Date: 28 Dec 10 - 09:57 AM GO HOME! Get better, and try not to die before the concert. Maybe not until at least Sunday when I'm outta there. |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: SINSULL Date: 28 Dec 10 - 09:45 AM This concert is definitely on. New Years Eve is off due to my impending death - LOL. The people at rhe office are insisting I go home. M |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: maeve Date: 26 Dec 10 - 12:19 PM Hand them the "Back When We Were All Machines" cd and give them the Youtube link, Sins. |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: SINSULL Date: 26 Dec 10 - 12:05 PM Thanks, maeve. That video disturbs me. Every day I watch young women walk by our office glued to cell phones while their babies either cry for attention or worse stare blankly. No interaction. It is heartbreaking. I'd like to snatch the damn cell phone away and show them where they need to pay attention. Rant over. SINS |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: maeve Date: 26 Dec 10 - 09:04 AM There's a nice article about the new song, "Back When We Were All Machines" and Cindy and Grey's video by the same name, in Midcoast Maine's Village Soup, written by Dagney C. Ernest. http://knox.villagesoup.com/ae/story/robots-invade-midcoast/369844 |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: ClaireBear Date: 16 Dec 10 - 02:09 PM There is whimpering in California, and not only because it was 35 degrees in the tent this morning. I would love to be there. |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: RTim Date: 16 Dec 10 - 12:10 PM If Maine is too far away for some of you folks - they are also performing in Woods Hole on the evening of 2nd January - Woods Hole Folk Music Society - 38th year!! http://www.arts-cape.com/whfolkmusic/ http://www.arts-cape.com/whfolkmusic/ Tim Radford |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: maeve Date: 16 Dec 10 - 12:08 PM Thanks, Jacqui. I'd walk a long way for Cindy Kallet's music. We'll see what's possible as we rebuild. Maeve |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: jacqui.c Date: 16 Dec 10 - 12:05 PM I'll keep my fingers crossed that you can make it Maeve. |

|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Charley Noble Date: 15 Dec 10 - 08:56 AM I've taking the liberty of forwarding Sinsull's invitation (with corrections) to a few other folks with an e-mail RSVP. Cheerily, Charley Noble |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: nager Date: 15 Dec 10 - 04:34 AM I love Cindy Kallet's music and have done for many years, but as I am in Australia it is a bit difficult to get to Maine... Hope it goes well. Maybe next year! |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: jacqui.c Date: 15 Dec 10 - 03:43 AM We have a number of people coming from my 'Folkie' email group, so we should have a good crowd, weather permitting! |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: kendall Date: 14 Dec 10 - 08:43 PM JACQUI AND I WILL BE THERE |
|
Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Jeri Date: 14 Dec 10 - 05:14 PM Sure, fine... I announce I want to come and nobody else posts. Cindy & Grey are musically delightful and the warmth spreads from them along with waves of sound. I really would like to know if I can get a "Back When We Were All Machines" ringtone for my cell. (I may have to settle for Lady Gaga.) |

Subject: RE: Cindy Kallet & Grey Larsen Concert Maine From: Jeri Date: 14 Dec 10 - 01:08 PM "Did i misspell Larsen?" Not now. I'm in. Bed and breakfast next day at Mel's Diner or wherever. |
