This Saturday seems to be a problem for many of us - less than half of us can make it, so Saturday's rehearsal is cancelled.
We *will* rehearse Thursday at 7:00, at Mmap, 2nd floor Arts and Culture Centre, go in the door to the right of the AC Hunter library entrance. We'll see if we need another practice - if it looks like we do, we'll try to squeeze another in before our gig on Sunday Aug. 3. We need to practice our stage-show - we want to look really professional. This will be an international audience!
Repertoire for the NAFCO gig -
Walt Hallett's etc.
I'll Hang My Harp/Genevieve's Reel
La Bastringue
Luke Payne's Tunes
Peak of the Topsail, etc.
I know we've played these rather a lot lately! We will be doing some different repertoire for the Folk Festival - but for this gig we want to hit them with our very best stuff.
Can everybody please practise the Rufus tunes for Thursday, that I passed out at the recording session? We might try them out at the Folk Festival.
Don't forget to pick up a pass to the NAFCO workshops!
See you all on Thursday.

NAFCO/ The Morning Show /Folk festival
Hi everybody!
I've tentatively booked two rehearsals:
10:00 am Saturday the 26th
7:00 pm Thursday the 31st.
at Mmap (Arts and Culture Centre, 2nd floor. Go in the door next to the AC Hunter Library - the door that used to lead to the Art Galleries - and go up one flight. First door on the right.)
Please let me know as soon as you can whether or not you can be there. If there are too many "can'ts" I may try to reschedule.
The Morning Show - on CBC!! We have been asked to publicise NAFCO. I need five volunteers from the Emile Benoit class. We have to be at CBC studios corner of University Ave. and Paton St. at 8:00 am on Friday Aug. 1
Folk Festival! Our time on the Neil Murray Stage is 3:00 pm on Saturday.
NAFCO is looking for volunteers. Call Tiffany Pollack, volunteer coordinator, 737-3661.

NAFCO
All about NAFCO!
On the website you'll find all kinds of info. http://www.mun.ca/nafco2008/conference/
Workshops are going to be *fan*tastic* (I've had an advance peek) and well worth the price! Go to as many as you can! Information is here http://www.mun.ca/nafco2008/event_sched/workshopsched.php
The workshop schedule will be posted in a few days.
You'll find a schedule and list of performers and concerts on the website. I've looked at the concert schedule - I'm really afraid I'm going to have to go to *all* of them, they are all so good!! Go to as many as you can - you'll probably never get another chance to hear so many fabulous internationally famous fiddlers all at once in the same place!
Our performance will be the afternoon of Aug. 3. on the concert entitled "Fresh Fiddles." Rehearsal info will be posted soon!
