For those of you who have been to the Canterbury Fiddler’s Picnic, we’re planning on conducting this event in a fairly similar fashion, except it will probably be quite a bit bigger, and there will be a lot more going on so we won’t be the center of attention quite as frequently. If you haven’t been, click on the link above to see the Canterbruy Fiddler’s Picnic web site, and some of the details of how it’s been run. We’ll play a lot of music, mostly as a group, but if any subgroups or individuals want to play separately, that would make for an interesting change.

I’ve posted a tune list as I do for the Canterbury Fidddler’s Picnic. it’s not meant as an assignment, but more as a guide to help us change tunes or to come up with something if we can’t think of something.

* Update, Thurs. 9/10: My e-mail incorrectly listed the ending time as 1:00. It really is 1:30 as it says above and in the flyer.
