  1. Alright, point made.

    But, thing is I'm not down with buying off ebay (not because i don't trust or haven't done before, just for other reasons) and I don't need the best guitar in the world. Just a solid guitar for 300-500 range that I can find locally. I mean, i really like telecaster style, but I'd be open to others.

    ...or would Fender Standard American Teles be a better bet?

  2. Excellent lineup! Granted these aren’t the biggest names, but there are a lot of really talented, upcoming, local acts that talk the “folk†aspect to new areas.

    ...just throw in a Patrick Watson and we're good! :-)

    (sadly theres a high chance I may not be able to make it too :-((

  3. I stand corrected Ollie. Still seems weird to let the fest sit dark for a day, but maybe I'm just bitter because that is the first day of my vacation.

    Going over the list it seems that, compared to other years, they haven't really dished out the big money for acts. Now I have no clue what these acts charge or what the Bluesfest budget is but it seems scaled back. I mean who on that list would be really that expensive besides say Santana? There's lots of Canadian bands, mid tier acts and unknowns.

    I'm hoping this means they saved their dollahs for some more big names, I guess we'll see.

    This year's talent budget will come in at about $5 million, said Monahan, which is up about $1 million from last year. "It's hard to top every year but I would say if you look at the major festivals across North America, this lineup stands with the best of them," Monahan said. The theme is Bluesfest Goes to Hollywood, a nod to the fact that actor Kevin Costner and his band, Modern West, are booked to perform July 17.

    Monahan said the $5-million total includes the money spent on programming the Blues in the Byward offshoot festival, which will feature free outdoor concerts in the Byward Market over two weekends: July 9-11 and July 16-18. That lineup will be announced in mid-May.

    Notes

    - Recorded approx 35ish ft from stage in front of soundboard, however at times the sound

    will fluctuate because I move forward a few feet or to side to either get better view.

    - Their set overlaped with Lynyrd Skynyrd and threw some humurous knocks about it.
