30A Songwriters Festival: January 14 - 16, 2011

[Smiling JOe]

We saw many people come through check in yesterday, but today will probably be even busier. By the way, the official merchandise for 30A Songwriter's Festival will be available at only the WaterColor check-in for the festival, while supplies last. Tee shirts were flying off the shelves yesterday, so if you want one, don't wait around to buy one.

We saw Shawn Mullins last night at a very packed Fish Out Of Water. He's a great story-teller and just love his gravely voice. We will probably see him again at Seaside this afternoon. Pandora's was hopping Friday night, and it looked like Caliza has been as popular as ever.

This is definitely one of my favorite 30A events - and was one hell of a great idea Jennifer had to get people into town in January!

Can't wait for next year!

And thank you to all the fantastic volunteers - I exhaust myself attending, so can't begin to imagine what organizing/riding herd on us is like!
