KCRF starts THIS MONTH, guys! I'm SO excited!  :D ;D :D ;D

This year feels a bit like deja vu for me, because my last day at my current job will be the last week of August, right before faire starts. (Dang outsourcing!) Good thing I have an awesome boyfriend who also happens to love faire, so my season pass is taken care of! ;D Also...at my current job I work Tues-Saturday, so I wouldn't have been able to attend Saturdays 'til late. Now? ALL DAY EVERY DAY OF FAIRE, BABY!!!  ;D ;D ;D

17 days, you guys!! We're down to the teens! Where is everybody? Normally there's a bit more excitement on this forum by now...oh well, guess I'll have to be excited for everybody instead! ;-)

;D ;D ;D

Yeah...I'm wondering the same thing.  I want to meet the owner of this smile! You listening, Tamtaro?

9. Days. We're in the single digits, people!!

;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

So what's everyone looking forward to most this year? I'm super excited to be playing fiddle with two of my friends in the lanes this year! (We'll be doing an occasional, not-every-day set in between Jolly Rogers shows. One of our "band's" members is in the Jolly Rogers, so we can't be an official stage act, but this is still going to be so much fun!) Can't wait to see the Jolly Rogers and Clearly Guilty too...eat a crepe and an apple dumpling...also interested to see the new pub sing (it's back in an actual "pub" this year instead of 3 Lions)! And of course most excited to see all my fairemly. :-) Getting to spend every single day (with the possible exception now of just the very last day) at faire for the first time in 2 years will be awesome, too.

I was bummed to see Garry Siler will not be there this year, but looking forward to drinking in the 'cove'.

Well, I will be looking forward to hearing more of your fiddle playing. Are you going to be playing the lanes with Vespar and Ivy?

Well, I'm going to miss opening weekend (going up to MNRF that weekend).  Also, may miss the next one too.  MIGHT be out that Sunday though; we'll see.  I should be there pretty much every faire day after that!  HUZZAH!

Yeah, Gary's not gonna be there.  He's doing an East coast tour, and possibly guest performances out there.

The ladies of Vespaer and Ivy have joined up with the Beerside Scoundrels and formed Clearly Guilty. Yes, I will likely be performing with them randomly at some point during the season. :-)

Four days, you guys!! Just four! :-D

The slight negative? This weekend, it's going to be hot. Absurdly, disgustingly hot. Everybody quadruple the amount of water you normally drink at faire...

Godfrey Daniels, I hope it's not going to be as hot up there this weekend as it is supposed to be down here...

I've traveled through time and overshot by a weekend!  I've heard it was hot as the blazes in Canterbury this past weekend.  I'm on the Columbia, MO to Bonner Springs, KS caravan for the upcoming Saturday and for as many more as I can after that.  Huzzah!! 

YES YES YES - definitely will find my way to Rendezvous at KCRF.  I shall smile vigorously perhaps even athletically at you all! ;D  (That's the most "athletic" I will ever be accused of being.) 

I was also sad to hear that Musical Blades was not in the line up this year :'(  I loved their performances!  Have you heard of any new acts? 

And I have been holding myself back from mentioning the CREPES!!  But now I must unleash my inner crepe beast!  I love you Crepes!!  Je t'aime! Je t'aime avec fromage!  (thank you Moonie!!)

Check out Ezndil this year if you get a chance.  They are a great couple of singers who don't just involve their listeners, they actually talk to and listen to what their audiences say.  They're great with kids too.  Really nice people.  I hope to make it to the fest on the 21st this year.  Huzzah!
