The Peterborough Folk Festival Was a Hit!
/
There were lots of shady spots to throw a towel down and listen to Kate LeDeuce After a sold-out show at a special opening night event on Friday night, Peterborough Folk Festival had a fantastic turnout on Saturday during their full day of events.
The 'learning to drum' stage turned into quite a gathering
There were numerous vendors, including a Hula-hooping workshop
And here's The McFlies covering "Sunglasses at Night" at PFF:
