This is a most impressive list Cherie. I was looking at the Wild Goose site but they don't have a lot of information there. Regardless, I am intrigued. I wonder if you might someday write a post on your time at the festival.
Peace to you in this new year.

Rubye, Wild Goose is in transition right now so they don't have their lineup for this year yet. I have blogged about both of my visits (2011 and 2012) - just search "Wild Goose" on my blog and they'll show up.
