Topic: Merlefest Day 1
Big day at Merlefest. Way too many groups to see and hear but
nonetheless an interesting afternoon. Doc looked great and played
wonderfully. I got to hear a bit of the Docabilly set. He really
loves rock and roll! Hell, he loves music and likes to pick, simple
as that.
The workshop was good and well attended. We just played for 50
minutes and there were even a few questions from the audience. Since
Tommy had left his snare at the Music Factory, he played a box. I
really liked that a lot.
The dance set was just that: a straight dance. I think we wore out
the crowd, as there was barely 15 seconds between songs. I don't know
how you could dance all that much after being at the festival all day,
but I guess that's what youth is about. We were done by 12:10 and
back at the hotel by 12:45. It was a long day.
On Sunday, most of the big acts had left, and some of the vendors had gone as well. We played on the Watson stage at 3, followed by Linda Ronstadt.
