DevO Posted February 25, 2003 Report Posted February 25, 2003 Hmm, looks like Dr. Didg didn't call it quits after all eh! He's listed on the Scottypaluza lineup. A quick look at his website shows that he's been playing shows throughout February too.
mark tonin Posted February 25, 2003 Report Posted February 25, 2003 I'm liking the looks of the Adirondack Mountain Music Fest - a very eclectic lineup and a great location in the middle of nowhere from what I can tell. And very close for people in the Peterborough - Kingston - Ottawa area.These two testimonials on their site tweaked my interest:"Culling artists from all over the sonic roadmap, the AMMF rocked and swayed back and forth, righteous and ideal at times; shaky on the verge of insanity at others. The music was stellar and genuine day in and night out… the weekend was epic."Jambase.com (2002)"I've been going to music festivals since the 1960s, and this was the most picturesque festival site I've ever come across. The stage was set up on a sandy beach along the edge of a lake, and the stunning panorama from the concert area was something else."The Revolving Door Magazine (2002)Peace, Mark

DevO Posted February 26, 2003 Author Report Posted February 26, 2003 Holy, those quotes about last year's Adirondack sound pretty damn good! I'd love to make it down there for that weekend. I believe last year's had Granola Funk Express, The Wailers, and several other great acts. Has anyone been to that festival venue in Mariaville, NY? Its where they host Max Creek's annual festival, and a few others.. Just wondering what that place is like. Scotty used to bring a few Canadian acts down for Scottpaluza back in the day.. BNB, Fat Cats, Jomomma, etc. I wish this trend would continue! Also, I'm putting together a little write-up for the front page, just a brief preview of the Canadian summer music festivals. It won't be completely comprehensive (its a brief write-up) but will include some info on the upcoming CTMF's, Evolve, Hillside, St. Andrew's.. I'm looking for any more info that should be included in this. What's goin' on out in Alberta/BC? Another Kaleidescope? Email me at kevo@jambands.ca" target="_blank if you've got some info. Thanks!
