Above: David Francey demonstrates how he dances ("just plant your feet on the floor and make sure they don't move") during his concert with Craig Werth at Hugh's Room on Sunday night.

Jeff and I went to the David Francey concert at Hugh's Room with Tom, Sue, Walter and Trish. You can read my post about the concert on blogTO: David Francey: Story and Song at Hugh's Room. This is my first music-oriented post on blogTO; I was hired mainly for the Restaurants and Books/Lit section, but was told that it was ok if I occasionally posted in Music. BlogTO doesn't focus much on folk music, so we'll see how this goes over (fingers crossed).

Anyway, please do go over and take a look if you're interested; I know there are folk music fans out there. If this post gets enough traffic, then that'll help justify more folk music posts. :-)

I found out about David Francey from Dave Clement and Tom Jeffers. Dave and I perform "Torn Screen Door" in open filk sometimes, and Dave and Tom have been kind enough to invite me to do "Saints and Sinners" with them in concert from time to time.

David Francey, Sue and Tom:

The lighting in Hugh's Room was pretty dim; I never would have been able to get the following photo without flash if I didn't have a low-light lens like my Sigma 30/1.4:

Walter brought his Rebel, too, and you can see his photos in Flickr. Here's one I especially liked:

Thanks so much to Tom and Sue for organizing this outing!
