I don't feel at all qualified to teach, but I would be happy to help with
any of the other aspects of running an event (feast, gate, etc.). The
only exception I can think of off hand is set up and clean up (especially
the latter) because the dust it kicks up has been known to turn me into a
cross between a tea kettle (wheezing) and a leaky faucet (sneezing). Hope
you understand.<br><br>
Just a thought, but if we do this as a separate event (which I like the
idea of a lot), maybe we could do some sort of potluck feast. That way
nobody has to spend all day in the kitchen, which would limit both class
time and performing time. Thought, anyone?<br><br>
Not real sure how many would come that aren't on this list, but if you
advertise it right, you should get plenty, especially if there are
opportunities to watch performances. You might also invite people to
bring period games to play or calligraphy and illumination to work on, as
that would provide distraction for, say, family that aren't attending or
giving classes. It would also fit in with the feel of the event without
requiring lots of extra help.<br><br>
Same for dance, not as a class, but as an activity for those who are
interested.<br><br>
Not too crazy about King's College, since the TBA worries me
also.<br><br>
Oh, and Snorri, um, hard to say for sure what I'll be doing in 2005 or
06, but the idea sounds good. Do you really need that much advance to get
on the calendar? And if so, do you have to plan now, or just reserve a
date?<br><br>
Sorry to be so verbose. Too <i>much</i> caffeine.<br><br>

Many people have written that they would love to attend - most responses
have included an offer to teach (too cool!). Do you think we'll be
able to pull many people who are not on this list? Think carefully
about this - the answer will have a very big impact on whether I try to
make it it's own event or attach it to something else. An
additional thought - King's College is on the calendar for June (site
TBA) - I could ask the autocrats to allow one or two tracks of bardic
classes. Comments?<br><br>
