Linn and I will be there, in need of a bed, as usual; and I think our friend Bob Frost, an old friend of Judy and Dennis, is planning on coming also.

What will you be wanting for food/drink?

Hope to see some of you at the shanty session the week before - Tom

Dagnabbit.

I wonder if we EVER can get Judy for a house concert in Cleveland (where acapella singing enthusiasm seems to be limited to early music enthusiasts, my 6 singing friends and me. sigh.) we ARE on the way to Chicago, really.

She playing that squeeze box o'hers much lately?

love to Judy and envy for you lucky sorts,

Joanne in Cleveland (with her own squeezebox)

Trubrit & spouse's guest quarters are excellent, provided you can find her house from Sins's. Best have one of them drive, especially if you stay late for the singing.

Oh so nice to see comments from friends! I'm glad I'll be seeing a lot of you there.

Yes, Guildford - and all of my stops in England - were lovely. I've been singing Barry Finn's Ida Lewis among others.

The Concertina has been getting some limited play.

I will, in fact, be looking for house concerts in the Midwest in Sep/Oct. From here in Maryland Cleveland looks like the Midwest, Joanne.

We have Geoff Kaufman giving a house concert here in Laurel this Friday.

More later,
Judy

Would you sing Ida Lewis for me someday Judy? I'm honored that you find her worth touring with.
Sorry to be missing you but hopefully I'll catch up with you in May

One of my favorite Barry songs too. Just remembered where I tucked away a piece of hideobilia for Judy. Hope it's not broken. A cheese tray if I remember rightly. Very nice...

No - yours was a disgusting chip and dip bowl. Remember? It was filled with jelly sharkes. This is a new piece in a similar theme.

I'm happy someone is listening to, more I happy someone's (besides me) singing it.
Judy, do you do that as part of your strong/sea woman program?

Barry - Yes, I sing Ida Lewis and Grace Darling as two heroic lighthouse keepers daughters, as part of Songs of Women and The Sea. I did that show at Universities at Hull and at Leeds as well as for the Music Institute at Guildford in Surry. When I sang Ida Lewis at the clubs I didn't sing Grace Darling since it's an English song...I just referenced it.

Leadfingers - Eddie Upton!! I have not seen him for ever so long. I hope he is well & singing beautifully as ever. I'm so pleased he said nice things.

Actually, Sins, besides the chip & dip swimming pool bowl (filled with gummy sea creatures), I also gave you a LOVELY pink and white ceramic mouse (or was it a bunny?) cheese (or something) covered tray. Elegantly tasteful. I think salt and pepper shakers were involved as well.

I haven't seen it on your groaning board of late... ;-)

It was a mouse, BG - a very pink mouse with matching salt and pepper shakers. Mercifully I can't find it.

Oh, jeez, Sinsull. Something perfect for Chez Sinsull was just posted on a Freecycle list I'm on -- "Female snowwoman stands about 2 feet tall......she sings Santa Baby, dances and swings the beads in her hand".

You're just lucky, I guess -- I don't have time to try to snag it. ;-)

I second "Buckskin Bag of Gold" -- and also request the Eau Plaine River song (whose exact title escapes me at the moment).

Also the one about the young woman accosted by several young men on horseback who tells them "what I crave lies between your thighs" -- and then makes off with the leader's horse.(Sorry, my mental data base just crashed and my random access memory is getting more and more random.)

Good choices! Bat Goddess - that's "The Crafty Maid's Policy." I love the title. I'll be sure to put that in...and Buckskin Bag of Gold...and Kid's Liberation. I'll see how far back in the brain "The Banks of the Little Eau Plaine" is (I saw a version of it one as "Banks of the Little Low Plain"

Sounds like we'll have a lovely evening.

Rats! I would love to be there and can't; far too many good things to do that weekend, but a friend actually asked me to be in the studio to sing along on his new album so I will be singing at least. Would love to hear Judy again. I too have grinning memories of the Buckskin Bag of Gold from Getaway.

You'll have a fun evening there, Judy. Just don't get on to the topic of Britt Ekland's body double in 'The Wicker Man'. They seem to have an unhealthy interest in that kind of thing.

Hi to Brian.

I'm looking forward to another trip to the thrift shops with Judy - we had fun last time. Plus, it's just about yard sale time again! She might just have time for the Saturday night concert somewhere in the mix!
