Hi Dave and Paulette, I'm using Cherry Wood Psaltery alot and its doing great since I got it. How did Down Home go this year? Please do friend Jeanie and I on Psaltery Strings, looking forward to play with you again at ETBPG! GREGG
It was great meeting you at Rick's, you are great entertainers and Paulette, what a fabulous bowed psaltery player!!!!!
Alabama is SOOOOOO far for me, but you never know what the future will bring
Hi Paulette, I didn't get the info
Where did you send it? You can also try sending it to my personal e-mail at dmalus@wideopenwest.com
Thanks!
Hi Paulette and Dave!
Is the information available for Tannehill 2013? I want to post the event. You are welcome to post it yourself if you prefer. I think that I saw it was June 8 but I wondered if you had a link to a web page or something?
Thanks so much for this!
Is everything outside? Does rain cancel? And, are vendors allowed, is there a charge for setting up?
Hi Dave and Paulette, Great to see you here. Lots of good folks on here and all with that same common interest we have. Hope all is well with you both. Looking forward to seeing you again for some jamming. Won't be at the dulcimer festival this year. It ended up on the same weekend as the Cumberland Gap festival I always attend.
