I'm not familiar with any of the other performers. Does anyone know how long this has been running? Unfortunately it conflicts with the Mystic Sea Music Festival but I am curious. Maybe another year. Cheerily, Charley Noble |

What I find interesting, is that this year they are inaugurating the "Banjo Toss." The person who can toss a banjo the farthest will win - guess what? - a free banjo. May the jokes begin... Jay |
