phorbesie Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 The lineup was just announced on the radio, but the festival didn't update their website yet, sooo.... Kenny Rogers, Feist, Maceo Parker, Bad Plus, Bill Frisell are names I heard. I think there might have been a Scofield mention? bouche 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Not Bob Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 As predicted (by people smarter than I am), Hudson brings the Scofield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Great lineup as always. Too bad King Crimson aren't on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Them St. Paul and the Broken Bones are a must-see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booche Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 The Lemon Bucket Orchestra were at Blue Skies last year, same night Velvet and Heather were there but they missed them. Anyways, most of you folks will want to check them out. Saturday June 24th. Same night as Kenny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A way to see an act that performs at US off-strip casinos and jamborees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobL Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Kenny is on at the same time as scofield medeski and DEJOHNETTE. Most of will be inside I am thinking bouche 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phorbesie Posted March 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Yeah, that conflict is a bummer! It will be my only time to see Kenny probably, so I feel somehow obligated that way, but the Hudson show will be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Fact: Hudson will be so vastly better than Kenny Rogers in a musical sense that the two events cannot even be measurably compared. Fact: I will be at Kenny Rogers that evening. Fact: Sometimes I can be really, really stupid. bouche 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Not Bob Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 Sometimes you go for the music. Sometimes you go for the event. No shame in either. Northern Wish 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 I'm convinced Kenny was replaced by a crude look-a-like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
