SOUR NOTE ON FESTIVALS
Every ;:year, the Music Festi-
val throws our establishment in-
to a ring-tailed tizzy. And this..
year. it was. the•same :old ' story
In' the ';first : place it always
takes place at the . worst time . of
year:. One year ' it will be in the
middle of the opening of `trout
season By the time get out,
• after listening to all those crumby
gone, and I have to' thrill .over. the
leftover . seven-inchers.
Another year, it strikes • at the
height of thosefirst golden green
days on' ,.the; golf course, This
year, it caught me right in the
middle. of • about 100 ; hours ..of
marking 'exams . "in 'my spare
•time,"~'as the ;taxpayers. put it.
But I'm not .'••complaining. I'm.
little . `kidsplay the : same; old' usedto• sacrificing the. finer things
crumby pieces, the big fish are all of ' life for. 'what my... wife thinks
