50. New Bedford Folk Festival

Week 50  7/9/16

We try to go to the New Bedford Folk Festival every year. This is a great festival that takes place during our wedding anniversary week, so we get to celebrate. For a few years we've shared the day or weekend with our friends, Deborah Cantor and Vincent Valvo. We always get to enjoy performers we've followed for many years and are introduced to new ones.

Festival musician Bruce Molsky  poses with a fan, musician Laura Goldhamer who is Deborah's niece. Laura and Debora attended every one of Bruce's performances on this Saturday. Paul and I enjoyed being with our friends and getting to know Laura. She had a fun day playing her guitar and singing here and there as we moved between venues, as well as seeing and hearing these great acts and shmoozing with some performers and other attendees.

At the end of the day the five of us ate dinner at a Portugese Restaurant.



Here Paul, Vincent and Deborah are discussing which venues to visit and how to find time for a lunch break.
