Subject: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: bbelle Date: 29 Dec 99 - 03:12 PM It would be great if the Florida Mudcatters could get together in Live Oak, while kendall is in attendance. harpgirl, paddymac, paul g., and I will be there. What a prime chance for us to actually meet each other in person. You'll be really surprised to see that I'm 5'11" and sylph-like, with blonde hair to my waist! Let us know if you need further information. You can contact us via personal message or this thread ... moonchild |

Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Banjer Date: 30 Dec 99 - 08:35 PM Ah, how I wish I could that meet...When you all firm up a date I will better know how my schedule looks. We are currently going into the reenacting season and most weekends will be spoken for. There is a reenactment in Brooksville in January...on the weekend of the 14-15-16th I think. That will be the nearest I think I will be to Live Oak for quite a while. There is also a folk festival in Largo at Heritage Village sometime early in 2000. More on that as I get info.... |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Wotcha Date: 31 Dec 99 - 03:19 AM I could be coming to Florida in February. Any good places to sing shanteys near Orlando/Palm Coast/St Augsutine? I intend to influence my kids ... Cheers, Allahamdalla, Brian |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: paddymac Date: 31 Dec 99 - 01:21 PM I confess to being a wee bit surprised that there haven't been more FL 'catters respond to this thread. I know of several completely lovable ordinary folks who are also very good musicians who frequently "drop in" to our collective "living room" and "listen" to our myriad conversations, but who have never gotten around to "officially" joining the family. I'm confident that I am not the only one who knows such folks, and I'm equally confident that there are many such folks whom I've not yet had the pleasure of meeting. So, I suggest that we all get busy and get those folks into our "official family", and think about upping the ante and turning Kendall's visit into an excuse for a full-fledged southern Mudcat "event", replete with T-shirts and kindred and such, and even a video. Everybody should polish-up their favorite trad or original piece(s) (i.e.; non-copyrighted stuff) and get ready to smile for the camera. We might even make enough from the video to buy a pint or two! |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Abby Sale Date: 01 Jan 00 - 12:07 PM >I could be coming to Florida in February. Any good places >to sing shanteys near Orlando/Palm Absolutely not in Orlando area. KC King proved that. I couldn't even get people to join in on Roll Alabama. Seems the refrain was too hard to learn. |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Abby Sale Date: 01 Jan 00 - 12:10 PM Well, put me on the list if something develops. I'm in Orlando.

Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: mingomom Date: 02 Jan 00 - 11:00 AM Yeah, please put me on the list, too. I'm real interested in a get-together. --mingomom |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Wotcha Date: 02 Jan 00 - 12:38 PM Abby, Maybe you needed to sing the DT (bawdy) version to get those Floridians' (if there are any left) attention? Seriously, I'll help take over a pub if we can get a shanty night going ... provided my leave gets approved and Saddam stays out of trouble, I'll be over. Cheers Brian |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Paul G. Date: 05 Jan 00 - 02:25 PM REFRESH -- There's got to be more out there somewhere... |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Blackcat2 Date: 05 Jan 00 - 03:16 PM Hi all On here I'm Blackcat2 in real life I'm Tom cook. I live in downtown Orlando and I agree there aren't many places in Orlando that welcomes trad. folk music. I sing Celtic stuff and play spoons and other percussion. I am looking to hook up with any and all Mudcatters but I would especially love to get together wish Orlando area people interested in putting together some sort of Celtic/and other stuff group. I've been in an out of F.O.F.F and it's a wonderful group of folks, but I found little to connect with. I have a close friend who is interested in the same things I am, but he's a professional pilot and therefore, much of the time out of town - and he always has different schedules. He'd love to sit in when he can. So keep me in mind. I'd love to be part of a FL Mudcat gathering too! By the way Abby, I used to play with a group that met in K.C.'s front room 5 years ago. pax yall |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: harpgirl Date: 05 Jan 00 - 04:05 PM ..well, I am tentatively planning to go to the FOFF fest January 20th and may be an MC...Paul G. is playing...let's meet there if there are a bunch of us...and also I am going to SOSMP this Saturday if Kendall makes it to play and sing... |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Abby Sale Date: 05 Jan 00 - 09:09 PM > I'm Blackcat2 in real life I'm Tom cook.
In that case you already receive my monthly mailing of what's on in Orlando area. There are several Celticoid groups and the Wednesday Tunes Night. See you sometime. |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Blackcat2 Date: 06 Jan 00 - 02:40 PM Hi there Wednesday tunes what what I attend several years ago - great group of people but at least then it was all about instruments and instrumentals. I sing and don't play much in the way of instruments - a little tin whistle, jews harp, spoons, bodhran and the such. Wednesdays are impossible for me anyhoo. . . |

Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: harpgirl Date: 18 May 00 - 11:38 AM Paul...Hope to catch both your main stage and your River Gazebo performances. I'm playing with Dr. Sound and we will have at least one digeridoo song. I am excited about the different material we will be playing...Barry is a wonderfully creative person and when we play it's never "practice". harpgirl |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Kristi H Date: 18 May 00 - 06:44 PM Upsala will be performing at the festival also. We are on right before Paul's group on the amphitheatre on Friday at 12:25-12:45.

I hope to meet Abby Sale, blackcat2 and Wotcha. Please look me up in the campground. I'd love to host a mudcat sing! Saturday night after 11PM? Abby ZurSchmiede |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: GUEST,Abby Sale Date: 23 May 00 - 05:58 PM harpgirl: We won't be getting up there be give us a holler if you pass through Orlando. |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Paul G. Date: 23 May 00 - 10:11 PM Will try to make it to the campgroung at 11:00 Sat nite -- heading out Thursday morning from Jax to White Springs. Will have a few copies of the new CD along as well! See you there... pg |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: harpgirl Date: 24 May 00 - 10:14 AM ...sorry to miss you Abby. 11 pm Saturday night in the campground for Mudcat reunion!! |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: Kristi H Date: 24 May 00 - 11:55 PM harpgirl, I look forward to trying to meet you. We are looking to get there tomorrow early afternoon. We are hoping to try and get one of those electrical outlets, which we will surely share with any one else. JU, our banjo player, is still recovering from some chemo and radiation treatment, and having access to our air conditioner for a couple of hours a dahyh will help us out a lot. It's going to be interesting trying to find all of our regular camp mates with the new campground configuration. I can't wait to get there, only a couple of hours packing and a short stopover in Gainesville for a radio interview to promote the festiival stand in our way. I can't wait to ge there and soak in the atmosphere and get really big blisters on my poor bass playing fingers on day one and then suffer through three more days of really great music and good times. Any other of you players out there use super glue to extend playing time??? If not, it does the job, if so, I would love to know. Getting up at five am, packing, and looking forward to one of my favorite weekends of the year, Kristi |
Subject: RE: FLORIDA MUDCATTERS From: harpgirl Date: 25 May 00 - 09:15 AM ...I can't wait either Kristi. I'm all packed but I have to work this morning. Will roll in about four PM. Do you think the campground will really be improved? Dr. Peterson wishes you all well. Saw your note on the FOFF list! |
