   70 for 6 sessions is high?   
   Thats less than 12 bucks a session!!   
   Paul Brady is headlining sunday night. I saw him in New York City and   
   paid 55.00 to see him play for 90 mins. (gladly).   
   Add Sarah Harmer, The good lovelies, The Barra MacNeils, Johnny Moynihan   
   and a load of the top local artists including Sean McCann, The   
   Dardanelles, Ennis to name only a few. I'd day 70.00 is about a 1.50 an   
   act. Winnipeg folk fest (although bigger) runs about 200.00 for a pass.
