We had a blast playing at the rebirth of the Redwood Mountain Faire in Felton CA last weekend. Years ago this was held down the road in Ben Lomond at Highland Park. After a year and a half of planning and fund raising, the festival was brought back as a one-day event at Roaring Camp.<\/p>\n

Yes, steam trains chugged by and blew smoke\/steam during our set. I just pretended we were playing in a really big coffeehouse with a REALLY big espresso machine in the corner.<\/p>\n

Here’s a clip of us playing “Highway 17”, along with the story about how I received my first ASCAP statement with real money on it. (Note: The statement was for $0.08. Seriously. Getting rich in folk music is a long-term process, people.)
