Re: It's that time again...
Wed, June 25, 2008 - 4:46 AMWhere would we park? I would usually park in the parking building near the old Namaste site but would that be open or the street closed?

Re: It's that time again...
Wed, June 25, 2008 - 1:45 PMWe'd love to have you!
We'll be performing right in front of Taylor Books. I copied these directions from Taylor Books website.
From I-64E, I-77S & I-79S take EXIT 100 (Leon Sullivan Way & Capitol Street Exit) exit ramp to LEON SULLIVAN WAY (formerly BROAD STREET). At the THIRD STOP LIGHT turn RIGHT onto QUARRIER STREET. Go to the THIRD STOP LIGHT and turn RIGHT onto CAPITOL STREET. Taylor Books & Annex Gallery is located at 226 CAPITOL STREET on the RIGHT.
Of course, part of the street will be closed due to FestivALL, but there are plenty of parking garages and paid parking lots. In fact, there's one on Quarrier St. past Capitol St. Parking is also available on the street (metered).
If you have any more questions let me know I'm happy to help! -

Davi, thank you for sharing your knowledge. You and your drum mate were awesome! I loved just listening to you--and so amazingly wonderful to dance to.
Jenna Brooke's studetns--You ladies were beautiful! I enjoyed talking and sharing stories with you. And most of all--dancing with you. Hope to have the chance again.
Sherry!!!!!!! Wow!!! I am so thankful to "know" you and to have danced with you is something very special. -

Re: It's that time again...
Mon, June 30, 2008 - 3:56 AMJenna Brooke, we had a troupe photo shoot yesterday. We did our best to make it to your last set (we didn't even stop to change), but it turns out you had performed an hour earlier than you had on Sat. Sorry!
But again, we saw some of your students and enjoyed them! -

Re: It's that time again...
Mon, June 30, 2008 - 6:23 AMThank you so much, everyone, for coming to FestivALL! You added so much energy and life to the show! I was honored to dance with each of you....we have such a lovely community of dancers, and I am happy to be part of it! Regardless of the rain (which I found to be cleansing) we were able to rock Capitol Street!!! Yes!
The third member of the band...my brother, guitarist, and drummer...his stage name is Random Genius (hee hee!)
I wish I would've had more of a chance to talk to everyone...I start spinning with all the energy...weeeee! We shall all meet again and share many memories! -

Re: It's that time again...
Mon, June 30, 2008 - 7:07 AMWhere do I start? Everything was just wonderful. Both days.
Jenna Brooke - You were fantastic, graceful and beautiful. Just a reminder of how much more I have to learn from you and how much I look forward to doing so. Oh and by the way you do realize you have the totally cool mom right? :)
Sherry - I am so glad you chose to hand out with Angie and I. You are great and your costume and dancing were beautiful. We must get together again. I completly need to see you do a performance.
Kali - It was wonderful getting to spend time with you. And I will attest you looked gorgeous on Sunday. You must come to one of our drum/dance circles. You would add so much.
Angie, Paula, Joy and Kate - You guys already know I love ya right? Anytime we get to hang out is a good time.
Now to the guys......
Random Genius - I don't know how Random but you are a musical genius. Fantastic playing.
And last but so not least our Davi - What can I say you are always extraordinary. And as much fun to hang out with as listen to. P.S. I still love the wrap. lol
