Tungsten Gruvsten Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 It's actually an amazing fest they have - the production company I used to work for does it and it's full blown every year - video screens/big stages etc etc....and -gasp- blues artists at a blues festival!

mark tonin Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 It is a well-run festival and everything is free except for the Thursday night, which is when Los Lobos and Colin James play. I think tickets are $40 for that event. But everything else is free ...Peace, Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamilton Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Colin James is a significantly better performer than his radio songs might have you believe. If you're going to be there for Los Lobos anyway, don't miss Colin James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamilton Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 So... that was a pretty awesome show last night! Colin James was super cool (with the exception of one cringe-worthy song titled, I believe, 'Nothing is Better Than Freedom'), and Los Lobos SMOKED. No Cesar Rosas, though. I wonder what was up with that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
