On Sunday I decided to let myself sleep in, and didn't show up until 1:00.

First I caught the last little bit of a Gospel session featuring Linda Tillery and the Cultural Heritage Choir, The Blind Boys of Alabama, and Betty Lavette.

Then for the afternoon mainstage I saw David Bromberg and Angel Band, who was quite good.

Then I saw a concert by Show of Hands, which was one of the two best sessions of the festival in my opinion. These guys are great.

Then I caught another good session featuring Ron Kavana, Greg Brown, Chumbawamba, and David Bromberg.

After that I had to work from 6-9:30. I caught the last few songs by The Blind Boys of Alabama, who were really amazing. For the last performer, Sarah Hamer, I went and sat near the top of the hill and smoked a joint.

At the final Party was Salif Keita, Baka Beyond, and Amos Garret and the Festival House band.
