The price is always right at SFF. There are usually three to five stages with live performances. It is all outside and most of it under tents. You are sure to be able to hear some music from other parts of the world. Parking is nearly impossible, so use the Metro to get there. It can also be very hot in DC that time of year.

ha!~ sounds interesting..
i was a part of travelling exhibit
that focussed on food...thru the ages.
it was a smithsonian exhibit, and one
of the stops it made was at my little
local museum, and that occasion inspired
the birth of the trio i play with now!
we included quite a few food related songs
in our repertoire...from Boil them Cabbage
down, to Ground hog, and some songs about
various other food fruit, etc. including
shove that pig's foot a little further
into the fire.
i see part of this festival will be about food,
too.
i see that you can download festival info at
