Pennsic Recap

Wow, what a war.

I very much missed my old campmates at Harpwood Hall, but I understand and sympathize with the reasons it's no more; we had a glorious run and it's time to move on. I found it a little hard getting set up in a new place, especially with Michael Kelly playing Tim's music next door the first night, but House Wild Rose was an incredibly warm and welcoming group.

I divided the War into two distinct sections, the first and second weeks. It helped that I had to go home after four days to get the next stage of my braces, which was thankfully more comfortable than the spacers I'd gotten the week before. The first week was very social, where I spent a lot of time visiting friends old and new. The second was very much a work week, intermixed with social time, and I played several sets a day. I also taught two classes at Pennsic University, and performed a formal stage show in the Performing Arts Pavilion on Wednesday night.

It was a very productive time.

I enjoyed myself very much, pushed myself in a few new directions, and kept many of my favorite busking habits from years past. Thank you very much to everyone who made it such an inspiring event, and I am very much looking forward to next time!
