The Monkees are mentioned on page 241 of the new Beatles Anthology table top
book written by the Beatles. In it, John Lennon quips (in 1967) about the
Beatles Sgt. Pepper’s image that if people want mop tops there’s the Monkees
for that.

Each January, for the last 15 years, the World Folk Music Association has
sponsored a exciting folk music extravaganza, bringing together a unique
mixture of both well-known and lesser known folk performers. It has always
been a wonderful opportunity to see and hear your favorite folk performers
as well as become acquainted with new ones. In 1997 the concert was expanded
from a single evening in a large concert hall to a full weekend of folk
music at one of the best listening rooms in the country:
The Birchmere has been selected as the site for the 16th Annual WFMA Benefit
Weekend, to be held January 12-13, 2001. Featured performers this year will
include John Stewart, Buffy Ford, Noel Paul Stookey (of Peter, Paul & Mary),
Christine Lavin, Tommy Makem, Peter Tork (of the Monkees), James Lee
Stanley, Side by Side, Dave Crossland, John Hoke, Dave Batti, Chuck
McDermott, Eliza Gilkyson, Craobh Rua and others.
There will only be two concerts this year. The Friday, January 12th concert
will feature a tribute to singer-songwriter John Stewart, and the weekend
will conclude on Saturday night, January 13, with an outstanding line-up of
folk performers.
Tickets will go on sale later this month. Also check out www.wfma.net. The
official hotel is the Holiday Inn National Airport. You must call the hotel
directly at 703-684-7200 and request the WFMA special rate of $79.
