I've lost my taste for the radio, and in spite of all the problems with the recording industry, I love listening to TBF performers and I will probably take home music in the form of cd's. I have no idea who will takes us this year, but I won't be disappointed.

Well I really was not pumped for the Zac Brown Band, thought they were going to be the stupid modern country portion of the festival, but then I saw this:

Agreed on the Zac Brown Band. They have done "Killing in the Name of" and "Gin and Juice" too. They should be a lot of fun.

Watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQ84EinHL08&feature=related

These guys are perfect for the festivarian circuit!

We were  thinking that the Zac Brown set may be a good time to wander into town but now thanks to you guys, we are re-thinking that. Thanks!

How is 'Ol Ft. Worth? We lived in Arlington for a couple of years and I was the chef at Walnut Creek CC in Mansfield. Our daughters loved taking trips to the gardens in Ft Worth.

I think he will be the sleeper set of the festival.  (by that I mean the set the fewest people expect greatness and are pleasantly surprised.)

It's good! Growing a lot right now-i'm afraid it is going to become Dallas!  Not that big of a music scene here, but hey, I guess that's what road trips to Colorado are for  :)!
I LOVE the Botanic Gardens!! Go there quite a bit- they have a nice concert series in the summer!

Oh, how I wish Ft. Worth got more shows than Dallas, I like that side of the airport so much better.

If we got the shows that Dallas got that would be awesome...the rest can stay in D though!

I bought Connor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band's Outer South last week and after a few listens I would highly suggest picking this up.Thumbs Up I didn't expect a whole lot from this band, but am thoroughly impressed with their sound (I can't quite put my finger on it, its like Bob Dylan meets the Clash meets something else). Anyway, I'm really looking forward to hearing their live set on Thursday night. Yet another great band that this festival has turned me on to that I would probably not listen to otherwise.
