Well, now that Gillian and Dave are confirmed...Craig, please get...

Robyn Hitchcock

Schudule Robin just before the Gill/Dave set or the Rawlings Machine
set.  The reason will be a likely WAY cool collaboration, since Gill & Dave
produced and played on Robyn's excellent 2004 album Spooked!

I second this in a big way.

So is the line up finalized?

had Brooks Williams ever played folks?

and I was just thinking that Stacey Earle and Mark Stuart haven't been there since 2002.

I wouldn't be surprised if Nancy Griffith will be at the folks fest this year, since she'll be playing iat Red Butte Garden in Salt Lake City that Sunday. Eh?

Any votes for my favorite Canadian, Gordon Lightfoot?  He really is still amazing

Gordon Lightfoot is playing Chautaugua on August 17th.  Thus, if Craig could get him,
he could easily close Saturday night!

Hey now! Greg Brown's available nearly the whole month of August (according to pollstar). It's been far too many years since we've heard his deep growl at RMFF! I would love to hear him sing "Cold and Dark and Wet."

Kerrville, Telluride and Rocky Mtn. Folk award winners, Paul Kamm and Eleanore MacDonald.  Not sure how long ago they won at Telluride. They have been performing for about 25 years .. maybe more.  i have no recollection of ever seeing them anywhere.   Worthy of consideration, for sure.  :)

Pollstar is listing Chris Isaak for Sunday Folks Fest.  However, Pollstar has been wrong before.

 I just got word that Danny Schmidt was a winner of the NewFolk contest at Kerrville.   Medal  Danny was among the suggestions I made back at the beginning of this thread.

check him out... if it's too late for this year, there is always next year.

 Cheers

Wasn't it just a couple of years ago that Michael Franti played Telluride?
