Jacob’s ladder festival
We just came back from a great weekend - the Jacob’s ladder festival. It’s an anglo-saxon folk festival - which means the music is mostly irish/english/country, and most of the crowd is from those countries - which means that you almost only hear english around you. Feels like a real vacation. The music was great, too. I really liked the country bits, and there was also a beautiful performance by ‘La Vashe Kiri’ - an israeli band playing east-european music (romanian, armanian, kleizmer, that sort of thing) - that was the highlight for me, anyway.
I even got Michal to do some square-dancing with me, and it was cool (for the short while it lasted).
