Here's the announcement I should've posted Monday, but for being so distracted (I'll save myself a bit of work and copy/paste from the band's announcements mailing list):

Greenman Festival website http://greenbeltgreenmanfestival.orgHow to get to the New Deal Cafe:
Near the spot where Greenbelt Road (rte 193) crosses over the Baltimore-Washington Parkway -- get onto Southway and follow it a few blocks until it ends at the shopping center on CenterWay.
There is parking in the shopping center, and maybe some on the street.
(If you'd like to get the band's mailings, which Felicia sends more reliably than I post announcements here, tell me the email address you want subscribed and I'll pass it along to her.)
Some of you will recognize the New Deal Cafe as the place
where
maugorn plays a couple of times a month.
According to the festival web site, the festival runs both days, from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. As noted above, we're playing tomorrow, at 3:30 PM.
I'm moving more slowly than I'd like, but other than that my day is not going too badly. My attendance tomorrow looks more and more likely. But even if I don't make it, the rest of the band puts on a good concert, so y'all plan to head over there regardless.
I'll be playing a borrowed guitar. I'll tell you why in my next entry.
