The “Vandalia Gathering” is an annual event held on the grounds of the West Virginia capital complex. This festival is intended to exhibit the traditions and many influences of West Virginia folk life including music, dance, crafts, and food.
Many of us have been coming to this event but this will be the first time to post our experiences. There are no contests and did enjoy the performances of other bands (i.e., on stage) and had a good time joining informal jams with other musicians which took place under a shady tree. Besides the music we got to hear some story telling and tried our hand at some flat foot dancing.
