PETE!  YEA! 
Who does the voting? Is it PB staff or is it done by festival goers?

Everyone be sure to come over to the tiki bar Camp Cascadia area for some Pete pickin. Especially at 2p on Tues and Wed for the Neil Young and Dead sets at Tiki. I just talked to him - he really wants a toe job before he goes into the competition  Evil

He has tons of live tunes for free download on archive.com and he'll be playing the NWString Summit this summer and the Camp Cascadia RainDance Oct 7-9, both at Horning's Hideout in Oregon.

Camp Cascadia would LOVE to host some of you festivarians up here.
