new things are good, and hanging out is good. i know a lot of folkies already, so i have plenty of folx to kibbitz with, plus i meet new people pretty easily at these things, so it's a toss up. i went alone, ended up being buddies with my two tent neighbors (as last year), and will probably invite some of them to various boston area events later - i think they'd fit into some of the circles.
on the other tentacle, i find it kinda amusing that in the last couple years, some 'boids have finally got enough critical mass that they all want to attend things like falcon ridge. together, or not at all. we've had that happen in regular waves at vfw, but it seems that it's not always to the group's liking and they leave. the dynamics are interesting i think.
very few people seem to do things on their own, although, the ones that really do, don't particularly tell everyone they are either. which is also fascinating.
hmmmm.
personally, i think FR and such are the greatest things, but that's because of what i get and put into it. others may find the whole lot horrifying. that's life i guess.
