hope they get DBT & Wilco on the same day. that would be epic. a few years ago, i had a concept for a summer tour that would feature those 2 along with maybe my morning jacket. the plan was it would be an all day affair with the 3 bands all doing full sets. maybe with the time slots rotating. i'd go!

I’d go as well!

They’ve already done 2/3 of that with the 2013 Americana tour with Dylan, Wilco, and MMJ

What a lineup. I've heard great things about this fest as well.
Love each other, Motherfuckers!

The one and only date they canceled on that tour was the date in Columbus
And I knew when I woke up Rock N Roll would be here forever

as Jack Handy would say, "it's probably because of something you did"** :lol: :lol: :lol:



**= "If a kid asks where rain comes from, I think a cute thing to tell him is, 'God is crying.' And if he asks why God is crying, another cute thing to tell him is, 'Probably because of something you did.'"

No doubt, but....there's only one act on the top line that should be there over our guys. I get why Shovels and Rope are on the top line- it's their shindig- but the other two, nah. Yeah, I get that both may have more widespread popularity, but that still don't make it right. Neither have the standard of quality or body of work that DBT does


Shout out to Nor Cal's (Oakland) Shannon & the Clams, they just recently laid waste to Sierra Nevada's Big Room here in town

The obvious act to get top billing is Mavis Staples. If I go, the top reason will be to see her.
The sooner we put those assholes in the grave&piss on the dirt above it, the better off we'll be
