Subject: Re: Nordic Roots Festival 2006 Line-Up Set!

I am so freaking excited for this. I'm already trying to get things
geared up to bring a group from my college down to Minneapolis for
at least two concerts, maybe three. If not, I might have to go down
for the whole weekend and go to every concert!

I've never seen Vasen, Gjallorhorn, or Varttinna live, and I simply
cannot wait until September.

This truly is an amazing lineup this year. I'm so excited, I can
barely contain myself!

Sarah
