Hi Folks,

We're only about 3 weeks away from our Great Lakes region Just Plain Folks showcases so I wanted to give all of you an update on how many artists are signed up, who will be there and also who hasn't signed up (in case you see friends missing from our confirmed artist lists below). I am sure these lineups will change as we get closer, but I have to say I am very pleasantly surprised by the huge interest level in the Oakville and Toronto shows (Thanks especially to our friends in Oakville who have done an amazing job of getting the word out!). They have also expressed interest in starting an official JPF Chapter there, so we'll look forward to an official launch at this showcase.

I will send several more updates between now and the shows, but I wanted you all to know you are confirmed and for folks in Buffalo and Cleveland especially, that we need to get the word out to more area artists.

If you have any questions, please email us. If you need to cancel, please let us know that ASAP. Otherwise, we'll send more updates as we get closer! For our new members, please make sure you've officially joined JPF by entering your email address and info on our home page under the JOIN button. That will also get you on our membership email list. If you have general questions about the roadtrip, here's a list of the 20 most common questions answered:
