NEFFA

It sounds like a critical mass is interested in performing at NEFFA, so I will be putting in an application in the next couple of weeks.

I set up a page for our application last year. If you’re interested in performing, let me know, and let me know of any suggestions for improvement.

NEFFA

If we want to perform at NEFFA, we have to put in an application by October 30. Last year, we decided we wanted to perform if and only if NEFFA was live, and it turned out to be virtual. So if we have people who want to do it, we could put in the same application. Or of course, if people have better ideas, we could put in a new application.

I set up a page for our application last year. If you’re interested in performing, let me know, and let me know of any suggestions for improvement.

Barney Gage, a member of this group from its inception until he moved to upstate New York to care for his father, died last month. My plan is to write something more with more pictures, later. But we have missed him.
