Well, that was a few years ago, as you can tell by my skinniness and all that air. And this is still a good idea of the festival though even though the tape was made in 79. These are Norwegian dancers, Ukrainian dancers. You got to remember that all these folks live in Tucson and are doing their own stuff. I hope these people will be on this year on Saturday the 11th during this magnificent Ukrainian Casa dances except the kids have all grown up old Hi, I'm Fiddler's not only Southwestern Fiddler's but Fiddler's like this gentleman from New Brunswick Canada who now happened to live in southern Arizona.

On Saturday, the 11th, the Joaquin brothers, they're an autumn or Kapha goes we used to say bunker band. And that's very traditional style of music and they end up the Saturday evening performance with a dance. We all clear the chairs away and do a little bit of traditional social dancing because of course the way to appreciate a dance band isn't to sit and listen to them. It's to dance, there will be folklorico dancing, and lots and lots and lots of other things. I always say that the program starts on Friday night with an old time Western swing band. And it ends on Sunday afternoon, late with a tom or Tom circle dance with everybody invited to join in. And you won't believe what's in the middle and it's all from Tucson.

So that's one thing you can do on the mainstage. There's always something going on during the festival hours. But then there are other areas there's a little area called workshop stage and that's where the Cody though competition is. That's where we have on Saturday in the early afternoon. We have accordion players, there's just going to be a of accordion, an Irish accordion player and a Papago accordion player and a Czech accordion player and a Slovenian accordion player all talking about the different kinds of music that they get out of. There's similar instruments or ethnic instrument workshop, some of the unusual instruments that are played Armenian dance instruction, you know, sort of intimate things that aren't as showy that really give people a chance to find out more about the folks who keep these traditions up. Sunday afternoon on the workshop stage, we let the old time fiddlers loose for about two and a half hours Fiddler's fiddling traditions from all over the country living in southern Arizona, and also Sunday afternoon, games, traditional games, group of Italians will be playing bocha our items will be teaching some traditional odd time games.

And that's the kind of sharing we always try to do something a little informal and new. And this year, our new informal thing is cat's cradle. Also in the afternoon, there's crafts demonstration, not much crafts sales, we try to be educational. And so we have of autumn basket maker and a group of Mormon ladies with a quilting bee with some spare needles to join in, and embroiderers and different traditional folk art and crafts people from these various communities.

One of those offices has the Arizona folklore archives in it. And that's been going since the 40s. That was started by that grand lady, Dr. Francis Gilmore, who taught folklore here at the university for so many years, was followed by Dr. Byrd Granger, who was sort of a legendary exciting teacher at the university. And so we have the archive, and the archive is Chucky jam full of the results of all the field work that all of us have been doing since the 40s. That's the good news. The bad news is that there are only two full time people on the staff. And we cannot open the archive for viewing except by appointment only. So if you need something in the archive, we'll do our best to get you into it. But you need to call. And that's listed under folklore in the university directory. And so that's the that's where the center is and what we're supposed to do are four things. One is maintain the archive. One is add to the archive. And that's what has me running around all over the state with a camera and a tape recorder and a notebook and finding out things and talking to folks and recording folks and doing all that neat stuff. We are administratively, strangely enough, a part of the university library system. And so another of the jobs of the center, which means my job's is to be a sort of one person Reference Desk on Arizona folklore and I answer about a little more than one question every hour on all possible aspects of Arizona folklore from professionals from Washington DC who are studying the details of something or other to people saying granddad he used to sing a song and I can't remember it. Can you help me find it? of two people saying how do I hire a mariachi orchestra? And I got answers to that too. I've got the list of people that I can rummage around in and find out about. And finally, we have a public education aspect. And that's where things like Tucson, meet yourself come in because the fourth part of our job is to turn around and share with the people of the state of Arizona. What we have discovered about the traditions of Arizona's folk and ethnic communities. We do that festival every year. We've put on music exhibitions of folk art. We have done LP records and will in the future I do a weekly radio show with KUAT am weekly TV show show on KYTC. TV on the folklore of southern Arizona folk arts, everything from ghost stories to great big flower tortillas. Have. We do lots and lots and lots of outreach kinds of programs, a lot of public lecturing.
