Not to beat a dead horse but here is the Suns official retraction and 'apology' today:

"Neil Young and Pearl Jam aren't coming to Bluesfest.

A source had told The Sun both would be announced for the summer music festival, but on Wednesday executive director Mark Monahan said it just isn't going to happen."

Nothing about the Sun regretting the error or the usual verbage that accompanies this type of retraction/ apology/ clarification.

Neil Young and Pearl Jam aren't coming to Bluesfest.

A source had told The Sun both would be announced for the summer music festival, but on Wednesday executive director Mark Monahan said it just isn't going to happen.

Did it occur to the reporter (or his editor) to check with Mark Monahan before they ran the story rumour?

Aloha,

Brad

so I wonder if there will be any more announcements today? Aren't there supposed to be more announcements before june 1?
The festival expects to announce the lineup for the free concerts next Monday and announce extra programming for Lebreton Flats by June 1, Monahan said at a news conference. Festival organizers will also launch a $500,000 international marketing campaign.

The dulcet tones of Iron Maiden may be only metres away, but have no fear. Kelp Records is ready to rock.

Enjoy 3 hours of Ottawa's finest, capped with a special "Kelp Records Revue" featuring the Flaps and Empiricals backing Kelp Records' favorites such as Rolf Klausener (The Acorn), Jim Bryson, Flecton Big Sky, and more.

Should be a terrific night. Like the Skydiggers VS Kiss, our PA may be smaller, but we will power through!

8:00 - 8:25 - Andrew Vincent

8:30 – 8:55 - Chris Page

9:05 - 9:35 - Rhume

9:50 -10:30 - The Flaps vs The Empiricals

10:30 -10:55 - The Kelp Records Revue

Limited edition woodcut posters made by SEAN STARWARS on billboard paper, each one with a unique look, will be available at Bluesfest.
