Hello all,
Contras are starting back up, and I thought we might play a little game.
I recently had the joy of calling my "most Vermont gig ever".
I had to go down a dirt road to get there.
Hosted by a farm, it was outdoors in a cow pasture.
Half way through the cows came down to the adjacent pasture.
There was a fabulou view of the sunset on the nearby mountains
The music was a wonderful local band.
The dancers were intergenerational, kids with grandparents and folks in
between.
When I finished my gig, I went to another contra dance less than an hour
away.
Over half of my pay was in maple syrup.
So that's my "most Vermont gig ever". What's a quintessential
experience
calling for you? The most ______ gig ever, where the blank might be your
own state, or festival, or wedding, etc.?
Happy dancing, happy calling!
