AppleJam 2007 It Rocked!

     The stage is now  quiet, the cars are all gone, and our Music fest for 2007 is history.  Here are just a couple of photo’s from the night:

      It’s hard to put into words what you’ll experience @ our music fest.  More than one person came up to us last night and  said “I wasn’t sure quite what to expect, but this totally exceeded our expectations.” :-)

     Talking to Fran  last week on the phone he told me in certain parts of the United States,  the Dalziels  could easily command $500 to $1000 a night for their performance.  They are just that good.    The whole evening was full of special moments.   Dennis a banjo player/ historian whom I’d never met before,  Matt a cowboy keyboardist, D M. who got on stage w/ Scott and Michelle and WAILED on that harmonica!   If you happened to be there last night and stop by the blog, I would love to get your perspective  on the night. 

     On a totally different note, we got an e-mail from a young woman from the UK who is planning a tour of the Midwest this coming March.  Here is a link to her website:

click on the link to her song “He can’t save her”.   Let me know if this would be something you’d enjoy and I will keep you posted on the specfics.   I told her I’d love to  put something together on this end when she comes to the US, probably rent a coffee house or other cozy intimate place to listen to live music.

     It’s not about #’s for me.  I would have enjoyed myself if I had been the only one, but when the dust settled, I think there were at least 150 people, possibly 175.  The energy you feel when you see 150 people having a good time listening to live music in a 100 yr old barn is hard to describe.   Wish you could have been there, maybe next year.
