01 Jun 00 - 01:37 PM (#236918) Subject: Fabulous Lineup! From: Metchosin If you are thinking of visiting B.C. this summer, you might want to consider this. Victoria is hosting a three day Rootsfest (sorry Aussies not that kind of orgy) and some of the lineup are:
Altan
Plus many more. You can find out more information at this site and if any Mudcatter is planning on coming to our little Island and needs accommodation feel free to contact me. |

From: black walnut our family is planning a trip west to vancouver next summer, 2001, probably july. does the rootsfest festival usually happen at the same time each year? what would be the best block of 2 or 3 weeks to hit the most folk music in vancouver or on the island? ~black walnut |

From: Metchosin Vancouver usually has a big Folk Festival in July, but I haven't heard much about it this year but if I find any information about it for this year or 2001, I will pass it on to you. Here is another link that might be helpful, if you manage to get over to the Island. click here |

01 Jun 00 - 02:29 PM (#236955) Subject: RE: Fabulous Lineup! From: Metchosin kat, I sent him a lot of the "Lime Bay Mutiny, Live at the Blue Peter" sea shanty stuff and a couple of MP3s of the Walter Bodega Band as well. Unfortunately I can usually only get the archived versions of Mudcat Radio and I really wanted to ask Max to play "March of the Dogs" by the WBB.
Oh well, maybe he might be able to do it next week.
Actually, that was my brother singing lead, not the best I've heard him do, on the Bonnie Ship the Diamond, as well as playing mandolin. An old tape, but there is some great stuff on it, particularly for female leads. Oops, thread drift. |

From: Metchosin I dunno...but I never thought of myself as chatty until I came to Mudcat...now I seem to be a little gun shy......maybe because my husband sometimes rolls his eyes when I go off on a tangent and uses the old Cloris Leachman line..."Trust me....that is not an interesting story." |

It's actually a bit of a joke with us. Yeah Mbo! I'm looking forward to Shooglenifty too! and Mandolerium of course! Are you coming out here? |
