Hey JohnnyK -
Well I'm stoked! Like you, I see - great blog.
I'm only going for the first week only this year ( Friday a.m. thru the following Friday) so I'm glad the first weekend is a strong one. Lucinda! T-Bone! Van! Bonnie! Calexico! JJ Grey! and so much more.
Do you guys have an itinerary yet?
Oriana (from Oregon - we met at the DBA last year)
Hi Oriana (from Oregona), great to hear from you! We are going the second weekend, arriving on Thursday afternoon. And, yes, the first weekend is VERY strong, many of my personal favorites. I'm jealous. But not to worry, it's great no matter when we go. Hope we bump into you on Thursday. Perhaps, in your restful periods, you can email some personal Fest observations/photos to share on johnnykmusic. In the meantime, Johnny Gumbo is counting down the days for us!
