first, were did the apple carts go with there wonderful sweet treats? Next any idea who many were in attendance last weekend? C, what happened to the Queens bakery? or the Queens chocolate shop? Did any one make to the ball Fri night? if so how was it, and will there be another one next year? And after 21 years this was the first time I have heard about heading of to the bar sunday night after the gates close to hang and listen to more music,please help me locate the bar and other info. We live very far away so our trips have to be planed out well in advance. The one thing I know for sure is this was the best year (trip) yet!   ;D

Ok, this is a lot of information that I've HEARD, so take it with a grain of salt.

The Bakery apparently came back. There was a misunderstanding on the first weekend, this much I know is fact, but someone told me that they were back and running.

The Ball is not until September 24th. Apparently on some of the promotional materials had the wrong date.

Saturday, August 28th there were 13,000 (a little over that, actually). No clue on Sunday, but we seemed a little lighter to me (that's just my personal observation).

The bar in question I would assume to be Bottom's Up. Pull out of faire, take a right and its not very far from faire at all. Only music I'm aware of is the drum circle there though.


I hope I've been some sort of help with all of my quasi information...like I said, some of it is just stuff I've heard third hand, if anyone can confirm this, that would be awesome.

(drum circle) ends at 11pm starts at 9:30 ish we all go home after that.  It is a no smoking bar with food, people only hang out with whoever they walked in with, not much seating so folks eat and leave.  The locals hang out at the pool table. They keep the juke box very loud to discourage folks from staying around after eating.

Many new vendors  fill the booths this year.

I was very touched when they renamed the bakery after my dear Seamus!!
