The reviews are in, and Far-West was a resounding success. Really, you guys are gushing a bit much, aren’t you? 8^)

Dear fellow FAR-Westers,

It was another wonderful FAR-West conference. So much great music,
so many wonderful people. Julie and I feel truly blessed to be part
of such a vibrant, warm and talented community.

This was the first year that I brought my camera to FAR-West, so I
thought I’d share some of the images I came home with. These are
just some of the best photos that I took. It’s a small sampling of
what went on over the weekend. There was no way that anyone could
possibly get to every showcase, panel, discussion, jam session,
class, etc. So it’s not even close to being all-inclusive. It’s
just what I ended up with before my camera’s memory chip filled up.

The official FAR-West photographers have done a FAR better job of
covering everything and those photos will be going up on the FAR-West
website over the next few weeks, as time permits.

I’m already looking forward to next year.
