 Bob,

I am surprised to hear you say this because, we have 3 sites that are
dedicated strictly to Trad bands.

Also, the schedule is set up so that for the most part, if you stay in one
area, most of the bands will eventually come through.

However, when you have bands such as the Titan Hot 7 & Jim Cullum, you have
to put them in larger venues.

Even with the logistics, when you have this many bands, over 130, it would
be difficult not to spread them around the town.  Let's face it, it is a
happening!  It may not be perfect but what is?  I wouldn't miss it for the
world.
