It Doesn't Get Much Crunchier Than This

K and I spent last Sunday in Raleigh at the Festival for the Eno River. We happened upon this event solely because a band we really like (Girlyman - pictured above) was scheduled to play. I had never heard of the Eno and was certainly unaware of the annual hootenanny that celebrates and supports it. I thought I had participated in my share of hippie/granola/green events, but this was something else. Lots of organic food, homespun flowy skirts, and pit hair. I was not inspired to chuck my razor, but I did enjoy myself in spite of the crazy heat. We settled into our roly-poly Kozy Creek chairs and soaked in a great afternoon of music. Girlyman is (left to right) Doris, Ty, and Nate. They write great songs and have amazing harmonies. It was K's first time hearing them live, so that made the day even more fun. They played both of my (current) favorite songs - Young James Dean and St. Peters' Bones - so I was content. Watch out Eno..... we might be back next year!!!
