Soon it will be festival weather. Our dance card is filling up with gigs for spring and summer. We both love festivals, and through the years, we've played at many.One of the first festivals we attended together was Horse Pens 40. It was a bluegrass venue, but they had all kinds of folk and acoustic music there too.
We'll be playing Art in the Park soon. It rained when we played there last year so we ended up in the gym and the sound was dodgy. The only thing you can do when the sound is dodgy is to circle the wagons, stand close enough to each other that you can hear enough to stay on key.
We had a friend that played with John Denver and he taught us that trick. Once they played in a huge venue when the stage monitors went out. They all gathered close, and John began clicking time with the heel of his boots. He said it wound up being one of the best shows they ever did.
I hope you all have a great Wednesday.
Festivals are great fun. Good luck to you guys for your performance. I hope there are no incidences like last year and everything goes perfectly this time around.
