You know, Dick has a good point. In this particular case, the music was 
great, and the weather was fine. So there are even fewer excuses than 
usual. I guess I keep hoping that those local people who are interested in 
Jewish music (and perhaps especially in new Jewish music) would make more 
of an effort to get out and support other musicians doing the same. For 
those who can afford the price of a ticket, it helps keep everyone in 
business by keeping money velocity up, too ;-).

I do feel that this band is perfect for Johnny D's or Passim, but even so, 
when there is room for a big turnout, let's all turn out!
