Mike Clifford Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I've been hearing about this on the radio lately, and it seems like a really cool idea. http://lazyrivermusic.com/ A music festival on the Fox River with camping and late-night jam sessions/acoustic sets. Woodstock on the Fox? My buddies and I have been known to break out the acoustic guitars for a few songs (Sunday Morning Comin' Down is a perennial favorite of ours) while camping on the Kankakee, but this looks really impressive. Check out the line-up. I had to YouTube some of the bands, which made it even more interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pts9889 Posted May 17, 2008 Report Share Posted May 17, 2008 Thanks for the heads-up Mike. Son Volt made a couple fantastic albums in the 90s including Trace which is widely considered the greatest alternative country album. Even you don't go to the festival, Son Volt is a band to check out. Good fishing. Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 18, 2008 Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 I always travel with 5 or 6 harmonicas so next time we have an outing or meet for breakfast we can have a blues jam in the parking lot. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Clifford Posted May 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2008 All we need is Gordon P on bass, and we'll have a regular jam! Speaking of harps, Phil- I never played with them, but can play just about everything on guitar that Neil Young ever put to vinyl. We might get along fine at a campfire somewhere...

Guest Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Gotta travel light, bongos, washboard, rib bones, side of tackle box. I'm going to go to Famous Daves and get some rib bones. I could never figure them out but if I lock myself in a room I think I can do it. Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Kast Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 I could just sling my talking drum over my back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
