i was getting Twitter updates and other random notifications all weekend about Newport Folk Festival.  For me, it turned into like the day GPN/Panic/Warren/Umphreys played the Hangout Festival-at some point i just said to myself "damm, why the hell am i not there?" 

KC thanks for posting the vids and i will definately check them out when i get home later.  my questions for those who attended are...did anyone see Aoife O'Donovan? did anyone see Kristen Andreassen? and did anyone see Wanda Jackson sing the Amy Winehouse song?
