Saturday, May 26th & Sunday, May27th,
2001
Thanks to some great entertainment,
fabulous vendors and guests who truly "weathered" the weekend
storm, we had another fabulous event.
Here's some highlights of the
weekend
|
|
Where would SkandFest be without the SAC? |
|
Dr. Fred gives a bit of "nasal
quality" to his particular brand of music |
|
|
|
Paul Dahlin teaching a fiddle workshop
"Anyone can play folk songs. It's
when rhythm and pause and bow technique and the special talent of
an individual enter the picture that folk music is made" |
|
Well, what do you know . . .
Grab a new partner and you might even win
a Hambo contest |
|
|
|
You haven't heard anything till you've
listened to George Langberg sing those foot stompin' songs
. . . in Swedish |
|
Paul Dahlin jams a little between
raindrops |
|
|
There was a final song . . .
in memory of the man who made it all
possible - Walter Eriksson |
|
|
|
Sometimes the pace of the entire weekend
can really get to you |
Two
fabulous days of Scandinavian Music and Dance, set in the
hills of northern New Jersey. The best 
ever.
