| The most amazing concert space! |
Our fourth concert was in the most amazing space, an actual yurt (yourte)! Le Rond Coin is a restaurant and resort in the woods, and we took a fun
tour of the grounds with the owner before the concert, who built the
structures.
Here is the wikipedia definition of a yurt:
"A
yurt is a portable,
bent dwelling structure traditionally used by
nomads in the
steppes of
Central Asia as their
home. The structure comprises a crown or compression wheel, usually
steam bent, supported by roof ribs which are bent down at the end where they meet the
lattice
wall (again, steam bent). The top of the wall is prevented from
spreading by means of a tension band which opposes the force of the roof
ribs. The structure is usually covered by layers of fabric and sheep's
wool
felt for insulation and weatherproofing."
