Dispatch. - I am trying but...........

[BuckeyeDog]

I think we should expect them to be either the last or next to last band on Saturday night - usually the spots reserved for the overall festival headliners.
 

Do you think so?  Weren't they a daytime set last time?  If this is a "headliner"....better have a lot of $$$ to spend on the 45th in 2018.

The brain cells diminish with age, and the good folks here can correct me if I am wrong, but Dispatch may have been the closing act on Thursday night. That was the 40th anniversary year, and the lineup was outstanding. The Friday closing act was Steve Martin, Edie Brickell and the Steep Canyon Rangers (the "replacement" for Mumford, who still owe us a show BTW). Salmon closed Saturday and the House Band on Sunday. Even the monks making the sand mandala that year was amazing.

Is there a headliner this year? I'm ok, I am very happy to see my favourites but I have to admit that Louise is already muttering that she isn't sure why she is travelling to US from Australia to see this line up. She doesn't have the Telluride crush that I have, of course. And, without wanting to sound like a complete broken record ( oh god, AGAIN, she is mentioning it AGAIN), I am really, really, really hoping that Alison Kraus having a new record means she might make it. And if Union Station came too I'd be in heaven. Greensky and AKUS. Fab

 

AND this is when I start getting goosebumps. They love to watch us guess and struggle and speculate and just when we give up guessing. BOOM they hear you, us and the whoopee cushion is full and ready to pop.  OK Ferg, Brian, whomever.  STOP! SHOW US THE BEEF! they love this stuff.

So appropriate for my final post .

Guess I managed to forget that. Well with any luck they'll be up against Greensky's nightgrass so I can get to the Palm nice and early.

Yeah. Being able to make that sort of decision is one of the beauties of TBF, for sure, although I think I'd rather have the opposite problem of having a tough decision to make. :-)

Sounds like you guys have a bad. Case of FOMS (fear of missing something)! At least a Dispatch Set is a good cure for that!

I know where I will be campers!

It's not enough to feel it, it needs to overwhelm you
The senses you are having you need for them to blind you
And you would

Such a great, great part of my life
