We made folk music history Saturday night in Rockville Maryland where my friends Cheryl Kagen and David Spitzer run the Folk N’ Great Music  House Concert Series. Last week Cheryl negotiated a collective bargaining agreement with Local 1000, the traveling musicians union. This has several important implications for union members like me who make part of our living in these venues; not the least of which is the ability to contribute to the union’s pension fund. To mark the moment I led the standing room audience (about 70 folks) in a rowdy chorus of Woody’s song “The Union Maid”. Thanks to everyone who made the night so memorable!
