Mike, mea culpa. I used the move thread function and it seemed to cause your post to go missing. Fortunately, Rick copied the crux of it here.

Please keep the festival discussions in this forum. I've added, in the [Links] section, a hyperlink to eack of the festival threads here in the forum. People can use the [Links] to visit the sights as well as our discussions about them here.

Sounds like a plan. Thanks.

FYI, ProgDay has a new domain. It is http://www.ProgDay.net

I have updated the AM Links section to reflect this change.
