gentlemonkey 17 Report post Posted February 3, 2010 Well, artist announcements are only 2 months away.. and with the number of rumoured and official lineups being posted, I thought we better get started whipping up the rumour froth on our Bluesfest!... :chug: A quick websearch yields a few possibilities:- Norah Jones- Tragically Hipand- FOGHAT! I'd believe any of those. Kinda hoping for Neil Young this year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
