    Default Calgary FolkFest 2009

    I love the Calgary Folkfest! I try to attend all four days if I can. I thought that I would put this in the off topic section in case any other Calgarians or tarpies would like to add to it.

    Here we go! Just some random photos from day 1.

    The crowd settles in.




    A Press Photographer turns his camera on the crowd.







    This guy had a 'virtual' tarp. Actually, he was just staking out a spot for the rest of his crew.



    Food Vendors at the Nomad's tent.



    Justin Rutledge- he's hot girls! He had a great set as well!

    A Vendor from the Nomad's Tent, my favorite food place.

    1600 volunteers make sure the Festival runs smoothly.

    Looks like it was a fun event. I especially like the guitare players in post 1 and the close up of the vendor in post 2.

    These 'Voyageurs' seem to be lost.

    Ha! Ha! I am not really a beer tent person. I confess I am a tarpie! I was a little disappointed that Michael Franti could not attend (ruptured appendix) but there were a lot of great acts. Lee Harvey Osmond, Arrested Development, The Decembrists, Alejandro Escoveda, Justin Rutledge, Iron and Wine and Gomez were the highlights for me.

    Yea Thursday was a bit of a gongshow, but how could i resist? We spent most of Sat afternoon at the Broken City stage as the tent provided some shade. We saw a lot of burnt people. The whole thing was a blast just like last year. Always well organized and well attended.
