Thanks for the reminder.....Sonny Landreth kicked things off with some smokin' blues....then on to BeauSoleil....and now the Drive By Truckers and Booker T are funkin' it up!!!!
After that bodacious thread from the Savannah webcast, and some of y'all said too bad we didn't have a chat room, then couple weeks back GTD sent me some ideas on things and also said the same thing...wouldn't it be nice if we had a chat room for this sort of thing?
Well I ain't got it ready yet, but in the next week I will. I wish I could have it ready for tomorrow cause they're webcasting again but I can't get er done that quick cause I just started it.
But with it being festival season, and knowing there will be several that are webcast, we'll have our own chat room to use. More to come as soon as I get it farther along.

How was Joe Cocker and Dr John? Had to run some errands and missed them both. Great lineup tomorrow!! Just wish they were broadcasting the Rads set instead of the Neville's. Not that there's anything wrong with the Neville Brothers, it's that I'd just rather see my boyz!

I had a great time that Sunday hanging out with Kerry (Swampcracka) and Ute (Firefly). It's true, Neil Young was amazing. All the shows I saw were fantastic. Can't wait til next year! Here are a few pics:

Ash, how were/are Cedric and Malcolm? They were at Skipper's a month or so ago but I could not get free to go, though I wanted to badly.
