Cliff - Thanks for posting this!

I've never had a less than great time at this Festival.

The setting's magnificent, the booking (by Paul Pines who booked The Tin Palace once upon a time) is often inspired (and usually features players I like who I haven't seen to much of in recent years) and Lake George is delightful in a particularly Upstate/Adirondak Park sort of way. The drive along the lake(s) to get there from VT is spectacular.

If ya ain't been - go.

If you have been ...I'll see you there!
