MERCI FOR YOUR OPEN DOOR AND YOUR MUSIC
and for you and your friends

"Always me and my harmonica
Always deep in my pocket
It goes with me everywhere
Under the cirrus
Under the nimbus
In broad daylight
In the twilight
In the blowing
In breezes
And storms
When i have the blues
That's when I pull out my harmonica"

Sorry about the late reply. I am like 100 friend requests behind. I like to check every friend request out so I don't get spam. If that offer to photograph the fest is still out there let me know.

So hope I can make it...(more like I will make myself make it)...even if if it is a bit of a drive and I'm broke, perhaps I'll hitchhike or hope for a paycheck...It is not too often that you get to see a ton of wonderful musicians all in a day!
