DTL turns into party central this weekend as Folk Fest 22 takes over our old mill town. But nothing seemed old about the lively opening scenes last night, from rain-weary throngs packing BHP to long lines at the ever-popular Filipino food booth to to crowded beer tents to a pack of youngsters trying their hand in the Wii tent set up by Nintendo at the Dutton Street dance stage. Music rocked from the bluesy sounds of piano master Henry Gray to the two-stepping dance tunes of the the Creole cowboys. Loved the free Nestea and Moxie samples. Chowed on chicken on a stick and other Thai delights from Buddachak at Dutton and sampled some yummy grape leaves walking by the Athenian. Feel like volunteering? Mike Wurm of the National Park could use more on Sunday. Just stop in at the Visitors Center on Market St., and they'll give you a job. What turned you on tonight at the Fest? What do you look forward to tomorrow?

Party vibes across the city last night, as crowds poured into the streets after official "fest' events ended. Shamrock, Paradiso, Old Court all looked jammed. Too many people to count. Lots of police, too, to make sure none of the revelers had too much fun. Today, more music, pad Thai and grape leaves for me. And bring on the losh kebobs. I can hardly wait.
