Fishguard Folk

No posts for a month then two come along at the same time. Just like London buses (preferably Routemasters).
Just to add another date to the random music calendar:
Fishguard Folk Festival, Friday May 24 to 27 and featuring the likes of Miranda Sykes (of Show of Hands fame) and Rex Preston, Tyde, Kent's Green Diesel and our own Welsh borders The Village Quire (who emailed me).  Any chance of a gymanfa ganu, some street music or a walk along the famed Coast Path (right)?

Bristol's buskers

Give a man a guitar and he eats for a day. 
Not in Bristol 'tho the Council say they'll make "some central areas of Bristol busking tolerant, as a way of animating the city..."
There should be some street music at: 
May 8, Tullamore, Ireland; 
May 17, Ascona in Switzerland; 
May 24, Salisbury Arts Festival.
