Im pretty excited to see some of the bands there...at the harmony theres Cake,Balkan beat Box, Sierra Leone refugee all stars, gaudi, matisyahu, and well cake. haha...Im just super stoked to see cake. Looove them!!! It sux cuz theyre local to where I live but they never play locally under the name Cake...they always go under a different alias so i never get to see em cuz i guess Im not cool enough to be in the loop. lol. Wow Im the queen of run on sentences and horrible grammar...I really like doing this..... love the dots.....
anywho...at the kate wolf patty griffin is playing!!!!! yaaaaay! I love women who play folk its just sexy....
oh and next wknd Krishna Daas and hot buttered rum is playin locally. Wooohoooo! Its about damn time we get some live music around these parts damnit!
*sorry guys and gals Ive had a couple margaritas to try and help me focus on homework but its had the opposite effect. Im ramblin like an idiot...on here...in my head...and to my poor bf who is laying next to me....blahblahrambleblahblurp.

 

yeah man im excited for the soundtribe + rusted root day at summerfest. but im much more excited for june 30th with natty nation and the wailers!!!!

 

I don't like any of them

 

can you really say that you dont like the yardbirds OR the wailers OR the roots? come on.. lets be serious.

 

I can say that with ease...
I can also say I've never heard of those 3 bands

 

I WANNA GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

So you're telling me you've never heard of components of at least one of those bands?
The Yardbirds - Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page
The Wailers - Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, Al Anderson

do you live under a rock?

 

its going to be awesome!!!!

 

I am aware of Eric Clapton and Bob Marley

and for future reference I live in a house with my family

 

monsieur coreymichael, i dislike you, purely because im jealous. tell the molly to come back to the uk

 

I ike flogging molly too, first thing that I saw on the whole list, then judas priest.... but luckily I got to see flogging in finland otherwise I would already be hitchhiking there

 

mkay that is acceptable but if you didnt know any of those people i'd be really surprised.

 

haha nah they can come jam out in milwaukee first
