Kanada Kev Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) Seeing Calaiuta or Bozzio with Beck would be amazing. Also, hope that he has Tal Wilkenfeld on bass. She's fantastic with him: Edited March 11, 2009 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gentlemonkey Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 So far I think I'm most excited about Jackson Browne. I'd love to hear "Running on Empty" live, in its entirety. Preferably with Lindly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bouche Posted March 14, 2009 Report Share Posted March 14, 2009 I had a dream last night that Gentle Monkey's idea of the BnB powered night was the beginning of something amazing in Ottawa. We got to make that happen somehow.This isn't it, but I love this Marvin Gaye cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Velvet Posted March 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2009 Ryan Shaw on July 9thhttp://www.tourtracker.com/artist/ryan-shaw/551957Looks like another Pedal Steel Guitar Summit! Bob Taillefer is coming toohttp://www.debbo.net/This suggests that Counting Crows and STP are possibilities:http://chathamdailynews.ca/ArticleDisplay.aspx?e=1494790KISS, Counting Crows, Stone Temple Pilots at Bayfest Posted 1 day agoThe Observer Bayfest’s rock weekend lineup is official, with KISS, Counting Crows, Stone Temple Pilots and The Trews hitting the stage in July. Organizer Michele Stokley said she was relieved to finally get the word out. “People have been so anxious to know the lineup. It’s been more overwhelming this year than any other year,†she said, noting online petitions and social networking groups focused on Bayfest 2009. “It’s great that people are putting so much thought into Bayfest.†Internet rumours had focused on KISS making an appearance in Sarnia, and Stokley said she can finally confirm it. “We’ve been trying for years and years to get them,†she said, noting organizers came close last year but conflicting tour dates kept the legendary rockers away. “It feels really good; we’re really excited.†The two-weekend Rogers Bayfest concert will kickoff Thursday July 9 with U.S. rockers Counting Crows. The band is well known for their 1993 hit single “Mr. Jones,†and most recently for the song “Accidentally in love,†featured on the Shrek 2 soundtrack.

AD Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 Denis Armstrong (Sun) has a "Bluesfest Scoop" (that he probably read here). It lists many of the artists Todd has been keeping track of but also adds a few new names to the rumours.http://www.blog.canoe.ca/nowopenSources close to the festival are reporting that Kiss, guitar-slinger Jeff Beck, former Rolling Stone Mick Taylor, The Alan Parsons Project, Paul Simon and Jackson Browne, folkie Chris Smither, Traffic guitarist Dave Mason, David Lindley, Belle and Sebastian, Stone Temple Pilots, Los Lonely Boys, Michael Jerome Browne and Blue Rodeo will play the 2009 Cisco Systems Bluesfest at LeBreton Flats between July 9-19.Also fanning the rumour mill is Grand Funk Railroad, The B-52s, Death Cab for Cutie, Arcade Fire and Iggy Pop.The complete schedule for Bluesfest will be announced on April 22 on their website www.ottawabluesfest.ca Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YearsAlongTheSea Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 I'd be really stoked to see Death Cab for Cutie, Paul Simon, Arcade Fire and Grand Funk Railroad...Bonus nostalgic points for Stone Temple Pilots... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted April 1, 2009 Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 I totally overlooked Paul Simon, shit, that'd be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted April 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2009 I was just mentioning the Paul Simon rumour to phorbesie this morning. That would be awesome, but as she pointed out, it would be a lawnchair fiesta.As I pointed out on this good rumour page, the fact that Michael Jerome Browne is playing Ottawa Folkfest sort of eliminates him from Bluesfest, doesn't it?http://consequenceofsound.net/festival-outlook/ottawa-bluesfest/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
