    Biggest thing I note at the #VancouverFolkFestival is the attendance skews markedly older

    The Kimberly Old-time #Accordion Festival closed when they had an ~average~ attendee age of 70

    There’s still a lot of younger volunteers and artists in #Vancouver’s #FolkMusic fest I think, but I saw few in the crowds

    It’s a great event. But I wish there was a way to make it accessible

  6. Good times at the #VancouverFolkFestival today

    Where the merch tent (run by #Vancouver used record-shop #NeptoonRecords) has far less #Accordion #CDs now than it did earlier 🪗💿

    More to play on @accordionnoir radio in coming weeks!

    Go get the lavish pop-up CDs from #WendyMcNeill ❤️‍🔥 who’s playing Sunday at 2:40 at the East Stage 😎

    I’m doing media, but I walked around and there’s some folks set up outside the front gate and if you walk around by the water, there’s other venders set up outside the far end of the festival

    Then there’s of course, lots of vendors inside who paid to support the #VancouverFolkFestival

    But I understand not everybody can afford the money to get in

    I wish there was another way to keep the festival going

    I’d hate to see #Vancouver lose it

    They played the #VancouverFolkFestival in 2017 it was marvellous!

    I learned my half assed but specialist #accordion Spanish was good enough to manage an interview with the #Basque band better than the provided translator ❤️‍🔥🪗😹

    If only I spoke 🪗 French Portuguese Japanese Russian Italian German Chinese and Arabic (and Finnish is important 🇫🇮)

    Probably a few I’m forgetting but those would be a great start

    Then I’d be set to write an international sequel to my #AccordionRevolution book

    Having the home-made badge “business” means I thought of this joke yesterday, and made these #AccordionMedia press identifiers this morning before the #VancouverFolkFestival

    The 🌈🪗 design looks pretty good

    Made the accordionists I interviewed laugh

    Mission accomplished
