[VT Festivals]

hi gang,

we have good advance sales and perfect weather on tap. fred's new
"tinderbox" is picking up
steam, as is mary gauthier's "between daylight and dark" with the
title track she co-wrote with fred [and "snakebit" which she co-wrote
with hayes carll]. lori mckenna's thursday night concert should be
awesome and mark erelli's new "delivered" will be at the festival.

is is not too late to make your plans to come for all or some of the
weekend. a couple of new food vendors this year, brand new t-shirt
designs, lots of interest in the instrument tent, free buses running
from bf to saxtons river to chester to springfield all day friday and
saturday.

come one, come all, come out for the best damned small town music
festival to be found, all here in my hometown.

see you soon.
