I feel like there arent enough hootenannies anymore, we need more... I'm throwing a hootenanny!!!

@freemo I always thought a "hootenanny" referred to a "party" or a "good time", in the general sense.

But according to Wikipedia:

'Hootenanny was also used by the leadership of early firefighting battalions to describe a "meeting of the minds" of higher ups or various department heads. The term has trickled down to working companies and is now used, with some frequency, at working incidents and other circumstances that require a focused discussion between key individuals.'

This what you mean?

@fortifieduniverse No I meant a party with folk music, the more traditional usage of the word.
