This year I am unable to attend though I've participated for the last  
four years.

My thought is that the Y2K loopfest attracts performers from all over  
the world.  Why would someone expend the time and expense to attend a  
festival of "conventional" music far away when "conventional" music is  
available just about everywhere?

I don't really consider my music to be "avante-garde" however it is  
unconventional.  A festival of "conventional" music would not be  
interested in me, anyway.

With you in spirit,
