That's not a new things - "The tent army is encroaching!" was their battlecry... er, theme the very first time they came to Falcon Ridge, 96 or 97, I don't remember now. :) >And they sing the song in a close harmony reminiscent of the Kingston Trio >or the Brothers Four-- a very funny parody on folk traditions. *bounce* Yes, they're good. For what it's worth, the album this is coming out on (called "C") will not be available in stores - only at Moxy Fruvous shows and by mail order (which, until the MFHQ, the Canadian postal service and that of U.S. get their act together, I don't advise). If you would like a copy of the album, e-mail me and I'll keep you updated as to when I'll be able to send you one. They should already have it by the time they come to Boston on June 6-7-8 to play House of Blues for three nights. Provided I get payment by then (I'm *really* broke), I can get you a copy and mail it out. - -v - -------- Vika Zafrin -------- vika@attglobal.net -------- http://www.brown.edu/Research/Decameron "Are you done [with your assignment]?"

Peas, Court Falcon Ridge 2000 comes to Philly three months early! *relevant linkage at the bottom* On Thursday, May 11th, the Riverbend Environmental Center in Gladwyne (Close to Conshohocken) will present the Falcon Ridge Preview Tour with: Rachel Bissex Hugh Blumenfeld Ruthie Foster Small Potatoes The concert will be presented in a restored 1920 Sears mail order barn.. Seating is strictly limited to 60. Donation is $12.00. Doors open at 7:30, the show starts at 8. Reservations should be made early to insure a seat. Part of the proceeds will go to the environmental center, the rest (minus minimal expenses) goes to the musicians. The staff is all volunteer.

My favorite local discovery since moving to Connecticut: a really wonderful songwriter. Well, political conservatives might be unable to appreciate his wit and lyricism, but for the rest of us...
