Were there any other Mudcatters at The Lunenburg Folk Harbour Festival 2003? Wasn't it wonderful?

My high point was the blues workshop at the Opera House, Rick Fines hosting. Magic from beginning to end.

I don't know. Dan McKinnon might have been there.

I didn't go. Glad you enjoyed it. It's usually pretty good entertainment.

The night concerts were all under a tent - and the audience was full of good listeners and singers. I think the tent made us feel more like a backup choir (accompanied by a talented foghorn) rather than feeling like a audience of spectators. Quite special. Maybe it was the way the tent was sheltering us all from the rain the the fog....

A double rainbow one night - when a momentary glimpse of setting sunlight hit the fogclouds. Also quite special!

I played Lunenburg twice and thought it the best festival I've ever played. Then the committee changed....Very happy memories of both the place, the people and the music...but not the mosquitos..I'm still wearing the T shirts!

I only met up with a couple of mosquitos, Harvey. They musn't enjoy fog.
