The site for folk music in Woodstock, Illinois, which is such a nice place that it was actually chosen to star in a movie. Director Harold Ramis picked it to play the part of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, in his 1993 comedy Groundhog Day.

And the National Trust for Historic Preservation named Woodstock one of a Dozen Distinctive Destinations for 2007.

This is the Internet home for three different folk music related undertakings in Woodstock, Illinois:
Masthouse
A monthly folk festival... or is it an open mike? Either way, Don Mast has been hosting music in his home since 1980. Through the years lots and lots of people, both musicians and those who don't think they are, have found music and more in this friendly environment.
Amy Beth
Woodstock's own lady of story and song, Amy Beth, is always doing something to bring people together to share music or reflect on life's meaning and purpose. An accomplished instrumentalist, singer, teacher, and storyteller, Amy will make you feel good about being alive.
Woodstock Folk Festival
