Saw the Infamous Stringdusters last night and was talking to the merch people. Tickets should go on sale for The Festy Experience in April and lineup should be out in May. Awesome fest in the Rockfish valley right at the base of Wintergreen ski mountain in VA. On the grounds of the Devils Backbone Brewery.

Hey Jeff, how you doing man? I guess it is that time of year for you to resurface. Hope all is well with you and your wife. You two doing allgood this year? I think I'm going to pass this year. Any other good fest I should look into? Something closer to Md perhaps.

My last show was Anders and Denson doing the sticky fingers album. Going to see Alabama shakes in 2 weeks.

Hey Brian! Sorry to hear you guys won't be making All Good this year. PJ and I are going with our freind Steve again. Hanging out with you and your wife in camp will be sorely missed. I think we're also going to hit Camp Barefoot in Bartow, WV and the one above.

Barefoot is KDTU, Ghostland Observatory, Keller, Dumpstaphunk, Kyle Hollingsworth, Zach Deputy and a bunch of VA and NC bands. The campround looks way cool and the valley floor is at 3000' so it ought to be a few degrees cooler than Raleigh (or MD) in August.

Last year Festy was so much fun. Stringdusters, Larry Keel, Grisman Quintet, RR Earth, Toubab Krewe, Rubblebucket, Emmitt/Nershi, Wood Bros, Giant Panda, Sarah Siskind, Jim Lauderdale etc. Lots of sitins from Dusters with everyone and everyone with Dusters. It should be about 4 hrs from downtown B'more (I forget where in MD you live) which is similar to Marvins. Barefoot would be 4.5 hrs. Let me know if either of those sound like something you'd be interested in and we will make it happen.
