Appalachian Fiddle and Bluegrass Association Festival

Banjo Cat T-Shirt by Frank Lee

We sure had a great time at the Appalachian Fiddle and Bluegrass Association festival in Wind Gap, PA, this weekend. Great music and great company on the beautiful grounds of Mountain View Park. We did two stage shows on Friday, taught fiddle and dance workshops on Saturday, and attended old-time and bluegrass jams till the wee hours of the morning on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. We were planning on heading home Saturday evening, but we lost all track of time while catching up with our old friends, in the James Reams and the Barnstormers band, so we decided to stay over till Sunday and enjoy one more night of jamming. I was clean out of clean shirts, so I used that as an excuse to add one to my collection of Frank Lee designed T-shirts. After much deliberation I picked out this one with a cool cat frailing an old-time banjo.

Livingston, NJ August 6th Show Canceled

Good news/bad news. Unfortunately, due to logistical problems, our show at Livingston's National Night Out has been canceled. That's the bad news, the good news is the Livingston Library has rebooked us for a full length indoor concert on Saturday October 12, 2013 and we are looking forward to putting on a full length show for the good people of Livingston.
