2009 Northwest Folklife Festival Seattle, Washington, USA May 22-25, 2009 --> Festival website: . Many of this year's acts can be sampled in the audio archive. --> Lineage for all shows: HLSC (w/windscreens) --> LS-10 --> USB --> CDWave --> FLAC Frontend --> Factors which may detract from the listener's enjoyment include: wind, ambient bleed from neighbouring venues, asshole talkers in the audience. None of these are too bad, really; but it is noticeable at times (especially on Friday afternoon and in quieter passages). --> With a few exceptions, the setlists are not known. If anybody is able to fill some of them in, please do! --> All photos taken by yours truly. Feel free to do with them what you will. --> Torrents in the series: 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 1 of 9) - Fiddlers' Showcase (887 MB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 2 of 9) - Folk As Punk Showcase (761 MB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 3 of 9) - Balkan Bridge Showcase (810 MB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 4 of 9) - Pirates, Punks, and Pints Showcase (661 MB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 5 of 9) - African Music Roundup (674 MB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 6 of 9) - Bluegrass Roundup (784 MB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 7 of 9) - Celtic Roundup (1.17 GB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 8 of 9) - World Music Roundup (986 MB) 2009 Northwest Folklife Festival (No. 9 of 9) - Miscellaneous Roundup (1.22 GB)
