No promises, save the promise to bring the best music in the world to you all summer...

The question is...who do you think belongs on the Fred Shellman stage in Telluride?


On your mark....get set....GO! :bolt

DWEEZEL ZAPPA   :vibes :vibes :vibes :vibes :peace

I'd much rather see the Ed Palermo Big Band play Zappa than Dweezel I think, those guys are tight.

But how about also:
* Mark Johnson and Emory Lester
* Poor Man's Whiskey
* The Biscuit Burners

If a banjo player picks in the woods, and no one is there to hear him.... is he still making an awful lot of noise?

I would really love to see the Clumsy Lovers come to Telluride.  They put on one hell of a show.  The fiddler player is a cross between Natalie McMaster and Sam Bush and she wears just killer boots.

Yep - They are a staple in the French Quarter - but I haven't seen them since Katrina, I'll check with my friends who know them to see if they are back yet.  By the way and on the subject, this place is awesome.  If you have never been to New Orleans now is the time.  I just love it here and am happy every day to be home - even if I am living in an rv in the driveway. 

I went out and saw Curley Taylor - now that was some fun Zydeco.  Sunpie and the Louisiana Sunspots would be awesome.  He's a park ranger by day, an incredible dancer and rockin' zydeco accordian player with a great band.

I'm wondering when Boulder Acoustic Society will be in the official line up, it seems like a perfect year for them to be in print.  Did they not wow ya at the sound check last year?
