Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: gnu Date: 07 Mar 09 - 02:59 PM It's nice out. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 07 Mar 09 - 03:07 PM It's nice out. Lol Gnu. You fellows are to much. Frogprince!, just the beach, but it could have been any beach. But mostly the one on Sanibel Island. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 10 Mar 09 - 10:46 PM O.K. Now for a little something that should be interesting "for some folks". Very soon there will be an announcement board located on the Web Site that I will post up coming events or related activities that are scheduled to take place. As an example, If anyone scheduled this year to perform at the Festival will be able to announce where they are playing if they so desire. If Bruce Murdoch is doing a gig in Nova Scotia at the so and so Inn, all he has to do is drop me a note and ask for it to be announced. I will gladly post it on our site. If I'm doing a fund raising, be it a bingo, card party, auction, garage sale etc.I could very well announce it. This will be an announcement board and not a discussion one. If Ron Bankley is having a great time and preforming in Georgia and is about to release another great C/D., I will announce it. Get the idea? At this point I will take further suggestions to help this venture along. I would much rather speak on the phone or in person directly so I could get my full meaning across. E-mail's tend to get expressed the wrong way sometimes. But this is about music so hopefully everyone is on board. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: KenM Date: 10 Mar 09 - 11:19 PM I like this idea alot, Adrien.......but tell me more about this guy Murdoch playing at the So and So Inn in Nova Scotia........ |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 11 Mar 09 - 08:32 AM Made that one up Ken. But who knows. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: John MacKenzie Date: 11 Mar 09 - 09:42 AM He's made up? I didn't know he wore cosmetics! |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: bankley Date: 11 Mar 09 - 10:31 AM I heard that he paints his toenails with Tremclad primer....spray on In other news...John, one of your fellow countrymen, Eddie Reid has moved back to Casablanca, has a couple of steady gigs and studio work and is speaking some Arabic with a Glaswegian accent.. he invited me to visit and do some playing but I don't think the old car will make it at this time. once again, good work Beer.... R. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 11 Mar 09 - 12:29 PM If any of you fellows scheduled to play have an announcement to make please let me know. As an example John, if you have a gig you doing I will gladly post it. Adrien |

Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: gnu Date: 02 Apr 09 - 09:03 PM Oh.... yer back. So, is John Allen doing the sound? I'd pay good money to see that. (Sorry to the REAL John.) |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 02 Apr 09 - 09:08 PM If you come up I'll introduce you to John Cameron. Great guy and sure knows his job as a sound man. One of the best. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Eve Goldberg Date: 02 Apr 09 - 10:53 PM Thanks Beer! The festival sounds great -- I wish I could be there, but alas, I will be on my way to Haliburton to teach a week-long guitar class. It's mighty tempting though -- Bruce Murdoch, Penny Lang, Jesse Winchester, Willie Dunn-- wow! Best of luck with everything, and I hope I'll be able to come sometime. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: gnu Date: 03 Apr 09 - 02:31 PM Jesse Winchester.... I was just watching a YT vid last night with Little Feat. He looks SO young! |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 03 Apr 09 - 10:13 PM Very Excited. Got a call last week from a friend from Prince Edward Island by the name of Gordon Belsher http://www.guernseycove.ca/ who will be passing through along with Star fiddler Richard Wood. http://www.peisland.com/richardwood/touch.htm They have offered to do a concert in which we will share the profits. Mine going to the festival and theirs to help them in their tour which includes Ontario and Alberta. I heard these two fellows play at the Montreal Celtic Festival about 10 years ago and I was thrilled to hear that they are together again and I will have the pleasure of having them in my company and doing a show that will help pay the bills. Oh! If there is anyone in my area that wants a ticket please give me a call as were only going to sell 100 tickets all in advance. $15.00 a ticket for a two hour show of the top fiddling, piano and singing to be heard taking place in Ormstown on May 28th. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: gnu Date: 04 Apr 09 - 06:03 AM $15 for this guy? |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 04 Apr 09 - 07:58 AM That is correct Gnu. Affordable for everyone. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Mooh Date: 04 Apr 09 - 09:16 AM I would so much like to attend this event, or better yet, play it, but alas, I'll be half way through a www.greenfieldmusicbootcamp.ca Have fun without me.. Peace, Mooh. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Azizi Date: 04 Apr 09 - 09:16 AM gnu, thanks for posting a link to that YouTube video. Here are two comments that I added to that video's comment section: Azizip17 (10 minutes ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply | Remove Thanks for posting this video. I learned about it through the online mudcat discussion forum. He's slated to do a concert soon with Gordon Belsher in Quebec to support their upcoming tour which includes Ontario and Alberta.and also support the Apple Hollow Music Fest that occurs annually in July. I loved Richard Wood's hearing uptempo fiddle playing. Besides being a great player, Richard Woods has great stage presence! and Azizip17 (2 minutes ago) Show Hide 0 Marked as spam Reply | Remove I also liked watching the dancers. I'm not that familiar with Celtic dancing . I've read that American tap started as a combination of African American dancing and Celtic dancing but that one major difference is that in Celtic dancing the upper body is held stiff. I'm wondering is the arm swaying in 1:03 of this video a departure from traditional dancing and if there are other contemporary changes in this dancing. Such changes are fine with me-I'm just curious about this. Thanks again! ** Could anybody here weigh in on that question about the dancing? Maybe I shouldn't have written "weigh in" as how much you weigh is your own business :o) But I am curious about that question about Celtic dancing. And not at all by the way, this years' Apple Hollow Music Fest sounds great! I'm sure that all those attending this festival will have a good time. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Jeri Date: 04 Apr 09 - 09:50 AM Azizi, there have been threads in the past on Irish step dancing. You might want to start another as it's a major departure from the topic of this thread. Cape Breton step dancing differs from Irish. Video of Richard Wood, Gordon Belsher and step dancer Cameron Francis. It would almost be worth driving up and crossing the border to see these guys. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Azizi Date: 04 Apr 09 - 11:01 AM Thanks Jeri. I pointed out that feature of the video as a means of prompting more folks to check it out. And as to departing from the topic of this thread, who me? I always stay on-topic. :o) |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 04 Apr 09 - 01:13 PM Thank for that clip Jeri. First time I see it. Should be a good show. Forgot to mention that Richard can also steps while playing the fiddle. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: maeve Date: 04 Apr 09 - 05:33 PM It was a wonderful surprise to hear a short tv commercial regarding the Wood/Belsher tour this afternoon. maeve |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 04 Apr 09 - 07:11 PM Really? What network would that have been on? Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: maeve Date: 04 Apr 09 - 09:17 PM Sorry, my sleepy mistake. I heard just the tail end of the spot as I was trying for a much-needed nap. Upon seeing and hearing the full commercial this evening I saw to my chagrin it concerns a group called Celtic Fire. I'm sorry for the confusion. maeve |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 05 Apr 09 - 06:50 PM No problem Maeve. It will be a great show. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: C. Ham Date: 13 Apr 09 - 02:54 PM Yikes! I just realized the Apple Hollow date is in conflict with my neice's wedding weekend in Toronto. Although the actual wedding is on Sunday,there's all kinds of family stuff going on all weekend that I can't miss. I was so looking forward to AH this year. Oh well. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 14 Apr 09 - 07:03 AM There are a number of Catters who attend the Festival and the previous one I was involved with who have been scratching their heads as to who C.Ham is. It is a game that continues to be played and even though I communicate (p.m.)with him/her on a regular bases I haven't a clue who he/she could be. One day my friend, one day. You will be missed this year but there will be lots of pictures taken and hopefully the Montreal Folk Reunion will be recorded. Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: john f weldon Date: 14 Apr 09 - 07:50 AM With all the secrecy, I can only assume... ...Folksinger by day, costumed crime-fighter by night. Watch for the Ham-mobile to come roaring out of the Ham-Cave. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: C. Ham Date: 14 Apr 09 - 08:15 AM LOL. Would you believe... |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: gnu Date: 14 Apr 09 - 10:49 AM A cunning Ham? |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Beer Date: 21 May 09 - 10:56 PM Well it is time to bring this thread back up for a little while. this was started last Aug.28 and Gnu was the last to record a message on April 14th. a little over a month ago. Hope you have been checking in on the web site. Not to much to report on except that the Bus thing doesn't look good but on the other hand the "Montreal Folk Reunion" session (90 minutes) maybe be professionally recorder both on audio and video. If this works out folks we will have a gem. For those of you who are viewing this thread for the first time the M.F.Reunion features: Penny Lang(Canada's First lady of Folk.) Bruce Murdoch. Willie Dunn, Ron Bankley,Jessie Winchester and Host Mike Regenstreif. A note from the web site: The Montreal Folk Reunion brings together six people who played leading roles in the vital folk music scene that Montreal enjoyed in the 1960s and '70s. They'll reminisce about the old days at clubs like the New Penelope, the Café André, the Back Door, the Yellow Door, the Karma Coffee House, the Golem Coffee House and the Montreal Folk Workshop, and show us why they remain important forces in the folk scene so many decades later. Singer-songwriters Jesse Winchester, Bruce Murdoch, Penny Lang, Willie Dunn and Ron Bankley all started their careers on that Montreal folk scene. Host Mike Regenstreif started hanging out on the folk scene as a high school student in 1969. Soon he was one of its major organizers. http://www.applehollowmusicfest.org/english.htm Adrien |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: bankley Date: 22 May 09 - 07:48 AM good news about the recording, Beer... maybe later a dvd can be made available for sale, with some of the proceeds going toward next year's Fest... you have my okay... just a thought... R. |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: frogprince Date: 22 May 09 - 02:14 PM This better be good; people from at least as far as Michigan are expected to attend. : ) Dean |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Dorothy Parshall Date: 22 May 09 - 05:13 PM Michigan??? I'm driving from The State of Washington (Puget Sound) for no better reason than to be THERE! |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Jeri Date: 22 May 09 - 05:33 PM Dorothy, I look forward to meeting you. I'm just coming from New Hampshire, but sometimes there are people (other than performers) who come from the UK, |
Subject: RE: Apple Hollow Music Fest Quebec Canada '09 From: Dorothy Parshall Date: 22 May 09 - 05:39 PM Hope to get to meet a few of these folks, and visit with those I've known for years or knew many years ago. 2700 miles worth! I know it will be worth it. |
