Get Ye to Philly, Man, the Folk Festival is this Weekend

Here’s the official ad on the official Philadelphia Folk Festival site.

Philadelphia Folk Festival 2010 – announcement from Jesse Lundy on Vimeo.

It’s a two hour drive, but it’s also Chris Smither, Jeff Tweedy, Iain Matthews and Richard Thompson. And an absolute slew of talented others.

Including, of course, Gandalf Murphy and The Slambovian Circus of Dreams. Here’s Gandalf and the band at the Philly Folk Fest in 2005 doing Dylan. Sounds just like Neil Diamond, except not.
