   Well, I said because often UK performers play the   
   festival but I don't think any are this year, the   
   focus is more on local talent this year.   But that   
   local talent, including The Once and A Crowd of Bold   
   Sharemen, have been influenced by UK folk music down   
   through the centuries.  Oh, but Denis Parker is   
   playing some acoustic blues and he is originally   
   from the UK.   Also Martin and Eliza Carthy played a   
   recent festival.   
      
   Also mainly I crossposted it to uk.music.folk since   
   I thought that some UK folkies might be interested   
   in taking a trip over here for the festival.  Similarly,   
   when I was in Vancouver the Rogue Folk Club people   
   told members about the Edmonton and Winnipeg festivals.
