Winslowshire and Abbadia Mare coming up soon!

    Hail and well met!  This will be my last post until both of our festivals have occurred!

    Winslowshire Festival is in 8 days from today and we are ever so grateful for all the support so far!  We actually got featured in The Sun Chronicle in Attleboro which will be putting in an article this week.  We also marched in the Foxboro Founder's Day Parade and handed out hundreds of flyers (with coupons).  Extra parking at the New Testament Baptist Church in Norton with free busing to and from the event.  If you come dressed in Renaissance Attire you get $2 off admission!  For more information on that is: www.winslowshire.com  (June 25th and 26th, 37 Eddy Street, Norton, MA) - Also another reminder that this is a vegetarian venue as this is an Animal Sanctuary that we are doing the event as a fundraiser for.

    Abbadia Mare Festival is coming very shortly as well in Gloucester, MA - we were featured in the Boston Sunday Globe Magazine for Things to do this Summer, and we have an ad in the Boston Phoenix Summer Guide!  We are planning on marching in the Horrible's Parade in Gloucester on July 3rd and then off to Faire on July 23rd and 24th (80 Hesperus Ave, Gloucester, MA).  Do know that all parking will be at Stage Fort Park in Gloucester, MA for an additional amount of $15 per car.  *Also do note that Hammond Castle is NOT handicapped accessible and we advise to leave the baby strollers at home*  For more information on that, see our website at www.abbadiamarefestival.com

     

    Hope to see you at one or both of these great festivals!  Huzzah!

    Hallo... Ther's a very nice very jazzy-bluesy-rock version of "Greensleeves" and "We Three Kings" on YouTube by Jethro Tull called "Greensleeved" and "We Five Kings". Enjoy!

    It looks like via Google there's at least one for Crabs in the skillet. You might have an easier time looking up "Horslips"(Irish rock 70's band) on youtube-pretty sure they did a version of Crabs. I'm alsO VERY fond of the 70's progressive rock (rather jazzy and Renish too)band "Focus" from Holland. I played flute in elementary thru HIgh School w/piccolo for marching band.

    Been meaning to mention this one for a while now; one of the trad Irish dance tunes "Crabs in the Skillet" naturally has a bluesy/jazzy feel;should be in "The Session" I originally found it in O'Neil's "Dance Music of Ireland". Do you play Irish Flute,tin whistle and/or flageolet too?
