Wish we could -- I went to Filk Ontario in the early 90's when Steve Dixon was the interfilk guest (yeah Steve) and had a great time. Met some wonderful people and it was my first introduction to Lloyd Landa and Karen. Lloyd died a few years ago - a great loss to many, but his spirit lives on in the many musicians he influenced.

If you have a chance to check out Toronto -- try to grab it. (SARS isn't the issue it's been blown into in Toronto, I've many friends there and their all fine)

Anyway - we're going on a geek cruise and the end of that month and that's got our available funding locked down.

Maybe next year - small is good too.

ps - don't forget Pondfilk III it's coming soon
