Re: (ET) electrak swap meet

I think the people putting on the Alternative Energy Fair in Randolph, VT
August 22 through 24 they should take a note from the Solarfest in
Poultney, VT July 12 & 13.   It was $ 25 for Saturday and $ 15 for Sunday
at the gate and $ 5 less for each day if bought in advance instead of
needing to pay for both days even though only one may be needed.    It
also had music, but atleast I didn't need to pay for both days when I
only attended one day.
I go for the renewable energy and NOT for the music.
I therefore don't care to pay for two or three days instead of just one
as I can probably see all I want to see in one day without listening to
music I don't care for.   I'll bet there would be alot more people
attending if the entrance fee was substantially less without the music.  
People that are interested and may need renewable energy don't need to
pay extra and may not be able to afford the extra entrance fee for music
they don't need.
I may have attended just one day in Randolph, VT if the fee was for one
day and certainly if the fee was less without the music I don't care to
listen to.
Traveling long distance, over 150 miles one way,  is costly enough
without paying for something I don't need or want.
