Here we go for Year No. 3! Although still on the smallish side (I prefer the term "intimate") this is becoming a wee Woodstock of Pure Drop (with Seven Nations and the Mickey Finns thrown in for a little leavening). Tim Benson and the Red Wellies are on board in addition to Brían Ó hAirt, a clutch of the usual brilliant Baltimore suspects, and who knows who-all else -- more musicians and other stuff being added weekly. The sessions go on all day; this is truly a players' festival. If you fancy the chance to sit on a haybale next to someone like Turlach Boylan or John Skelton in a session (making sure you mind your manners, of course) this is your weekend.
Yep, camping's cool and Tim Benson will have some of his fine pipes on hand for ogling/purchase.
Y'all come!
