Subject: RE: Pacific Northwest Folklore Society From: Stewart Date: 04 Mar 11 - 06:26 PM I am just re-reading this thread of Sept. 13, 2007 - Pacific NW Folklore Society It's hilarious - Maggie being paranoid about who's behind it (sorry Maggie) John Ross cussing out my Irish friend, MartinRyan, for using his name in vain Mary Garvey saying it's a great idea, regardless of who they are etc. etc. it's just a barrel of laughs It really got everyone's attention! what's really interesting is to see how far we've come, how we've evolved, even beyond our first expectations I don't think any of us could have predicted it. What a Hoot!! We've hosted some great folksingers from out of town - Jeff Warner, Jed Marum, Brian Peters, Kate Power & Steve Einhorn, Steve Gillette & Cindy Mangsen, Joe Hickerson, Charley Groth ... as well as local folks - Alice Stuart, the Canote Brothers, Ginney Riley, Pint & Dale, Tania Opland & Mike Freeman, and many, many others. posted over 45 Pacific NW songs with lyrics and mp3 recordings lots of historical information about PNW folklore, expanded into Everett with Bob "Deckman" Nelson, and more. Now we need to think about who's going to carry this on when we can't do it any more. Any volunteers? We'd like to have some younger people involved, grow the tradition, expand the musical genre's, but still keep it a grass-roots, low-budget, below-the-radar organization. Any ideas? Cheers, S. in Seattle along with Bob "Deckman" Nelson in Everett |
Subject: RE: Pacific Northwest Folklore Society From: Deckman Date: 04 Mar 11 - 06:42 PM STEW ... I echo your thoughts exactly. I don't know about you, but I'm getting tired. I know you're younger than me, by ONE MONTH ... but I don't think I can keep up with YOU much longer. But more importantly to ME ... I'm losing momentum on my archiving project. I need to get back to it. It's time for new, and younger, blood. bob nelson |
