Seattle, Washington, USA: [Folk/Celtic]
There is an open band - open caller contradance Monday nights at the Tractor
Tavern (5213 Ballard Avenue NW); rumors of this ending have circulated
since the place changed names from the Old Town and the flavor of the other
events here took a sharp turn toward rock and pop, but it is still alive
and well as of August 1994. There's a $2 cover charge which is optional for
musicians who play most of the time they're there; 100% of the cover proceeds
go to the coordinating musician and caller of the night.
