Subject: RE: Happy! – Jan 12 (Don Grooms) From: GUEST,Pete Peterson Date: 12 Jan 06 - 06:33 PM One of the more wonderful customs of the Florida Folk Festival (Memorial Day weekend, Stephen Foster State Park and you can guess what river runs through the park, but I digress) is to leave vacant the camping spots that some of the more wonderful Florida musicians used to camp at during their lifetimes. There's one for Will McLean, and one for Don Grooms. "Gone but not forgotten" |
