If this is your first FARM Gathering, welcome home! We’re so happy to have you here. The past three years in Bolingbrook, IL have brought us more and more first-timers along with all the FARM regulars who never miss a gathering. Everyone’s an old friend, the minute you walk in the door. We hope it will be obvious that a lot of love goes into creating this conference as each year a small band of volunteers works extremely hard to bring you an event which raises the bar from the previous. This year is no exception. We’ve got another stellar batch of artists - including those on stage under the bright lights and those playing their hearts out in every corner of the hotel. Luminaries and emerging artists, world travelers and hometown favorites – we’ve got’em all. For the first time this year, FARM has opened a small number of rooms for Private Showcases. Along with our Official Showcases, DJ Showcase and Performance Lane, there will be no shortage of great music being heard. Our Planning Committee this year was the tops! Cindy Morgan, VERY Special Thanks to our our volunteer coordinator, works for weeks in advance to 2011 FARM Gathering Sponsors: ensure we have enough help to make everything run smoothly. We’ve got ‘greeters’ and ‘enforcers’ and who will be on hand to make sure you have what you need. Just look for the folks Wheatland Music Organization wearing a black FARM T-shirt.

Weavermania!, conceived by Michael Smith and Barbara Barrow, has performed to enthusiastic crowds at art centers, folk festivals and music clubs in the U.S. since 1999. Weavermania! is comprised of four outstanding musicians in their own right: Michael Smith (Lee Hays’ bass parts), Barbara Barrow (Ronnie Gilbert’s vocal parts), Chris Walz (Fred Hellerman's vocals, guitar), and Mark Dvorak (Pete Seeger’s persona, banjo, vocals).

PAGE 6 www.farmfolk.org 2011 FARM GATHERING PROGRAM Conference Info This is our third year at the Holiday Inn Bolingbrook and many of you know your way around. However, there are many first-timers and we’ve made some changes to the floor plan so read through this information to be sure you know what’s what and where everything is happening. Most all activities take place in or around the 3 banquet halls. The diagram below should help you find your way and our volunteers (look for the black FARM T-shirts) will be happy to help you. REGISTRATION opens at 4pm on Thursday and 9 am - 9pm Friday & Saturday. If there is no one at the table, a volunteer should be close by to assist you with check-in. Credentials are required to enter any of the halls for any reason. Please wear your hang tags at all times. DINING will take place in the pool area and those who paid for meals will be given priority seating at the tables. Volunteers will be checking wrist bands at the buffet line but all are welcome to hang out. Please be mindful if you’re just socializing and you see someone wandering around with a plate full of food. DISPLAY TABLES are provided at no cost for all paid attendee to set out press kits, flyers, stickers and whatever merch you would like to share. Please be economical with your set-ups. Small CD cases are fine but no large posters or display boards and absolutely nothing hangs on the walls. We reserve the right to adjust your set-up as needed, but you should check yourself as well. As a courtesy - unless you are a venue, festival or DJ - check with the artist before helping yourself to CDs. This is an honor system, so if you don’t want attendees taking your CDs you may wish to carry them with you to distribute at your own discretion. WORKSHOPS & PANELS are held in the the Clovers and Amaranth rooms. Please see the floor plan below for room locations. You’ll find a sign on each room listing the schedule for that room.

  • Michael Smith Is a Legend in Folk Music Songwriting, Having Been Recorded by Hundreds of Artists Across the World Today
    The Folk Club of Reston-Herndon Preserving the traditions of Folk Music, Folk Lore, and Gentle Folk Ways Volume 22, Issue 4 April 2006 April 11 Showcase – Mike Haley by Dan Grove Michael Francis Haley was born in North Carolina, but had settled in Manassas in time to go to Stonewall Jackson High School, where his ability on the violin first drew notice. He was playing fiddle tunes in the school talent show when a member of the audience, a local auctioneer, heard him and offered him a job as a strolling violinist for a dinner gala. As a senior, he was the recipient of the Prince William County Public Schools Music Achievement Award. Since then, Mike has been a violinist in the George Mason Symphony Orchestra (he also got a degree in Speech Communication there) and the Prince George's Philharmonic. Influences on violin have been Luis Garcia, a teacher in Triangle, VA, and Henry Kashinski, Concert Master of the Prince William Symphony, plus videos, recordings, and books by Jascha Heifetz, Vassar Clements, Nigel Kennedy, Itzhak Perlman, Bobby Hicks, and others. Mike also went through a rock phase (what he jokingly calls his musical “deviation period”). In high school he idolized Angus Young, the AC/DC guitarist, and from 1988-1991 he first sang in a “metal hair band” called the Backstreet Kidz, and then played guitar with a group called Discovery. He has composed and played lead electric rock violin, too, including making a music video. With the musical “deviation” over (but with the hair surviving), Mike now performs exclusively as a solo violinist.

  • ASCAP/BMI Comment
    Stuart Rosen Senior Vice President General Counsel November 20, 2015 Chief, Litigation III Section Antitrust Division U.S. Department of Justice 450 5th Street NW, Suite 4000 Washington, DC 20001 Re: Justice Department Review of the BMI and ASCAP Consent Decrees To the Chief of the Litigation III Section: BMI recently alerted its community of affiliated songwriters, composers and publishers to the profound impact 100% licensing would have on their careers, both creatively and financially, if it were to be mandated by the U.S. Department of Justice. In a call to action, BMI provided a letter, one for songwriters and one for publishers, to which their signatures could be added. The response was overwhelming. BMI received nearly 13,000 signatures from writers, composers and publishers of all genres of music, at all levels in their careers. Some of the industry's most well- known songwriters added their names, including Stephen Stills, Cynthia Weil, Steve Cropper, Ester Dean, Dean Pitchford, Congressman John Hall, Trini Lopez, John Cafferty, Gunnar Nelson, Lori McKenna, Shannon Rubicam and Don Brewer, among many others. Enclosed you will find the letters, with signatures attached. On behalf of BMI, I strongly urge you to consider the voices of thousands of songwriters and copyright owners reflected here before making a decision that will adversely affect both the creators, and the ongoing creation of, one ofAmerica's most important cultural and economic resources. Vert truly yours, Stuart Rosen 7 World Trade Center, 250 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10007-0030 (212) 220-3153 Fax: (212) 220-4482 E-Mail: [email protected] ® A Registered Trademark of Broadcast Music, Inc.
