    Wow! This is something that may even entice me to the big apple. Not being a person that likes even small cities, I often comment that I find the prospect of spending a weekend in jail more attractive than visiting NY City.
    Now this, could actually be a deal breaker.

    I've been to NYC once. It has everything, even something for Bill.
    It looks like a really great line up of instructors and concerts. And since the California Mandolin Summit is no longer available, this is the new opportunity to see great stuff.
    I'm planning a second trip!

    And, you can still get your weekend in jail if you want.

    I work in NYC so this is perfect for me. I have it on my calendar. Just trying to figure out if I will go more than one day. It may be info overload for me.

    Ahhh. I see MandolinMan from Belgium will be there. I have a recording of theirs: Old Tunes Dusted Down, which I enjoy very much. Here's a link to a discussion about them here a couple years ago.

    And a link to a video that Dagger posted on that thread.

    As Johnny Carson would say: Good stuff!

    Hello, Just wanted to let you know that MandolinMan has decided not to participate in the festival due to the cost of travel. We are hoping that they will join us in a future festival. We agree they are a great group. Instead an exciting duo from Italy will be peforming. Fourteen Strings. Hope to see you at the festival and please do introduce yourself if you come.
