Not sure about the food, but they announced today that it's being moved because weather is going to be shitty.

Everything will be there that would be there if it was outside: Food, Art, No change in Lineup, Alchohol, Kids Area, etc.

The River center is a lot bigger than most people and myself think. They did a good job with the addition of the exhibition halls and the "flow" between them all.

Come on out.

Weather looks like they shouldn't have moved it inside. Ground could be muddy i guess. Im still a gametime decision, seems like its gonna be a clusterfrick.

I kinda don't want to go now that it's inside and the weather outside is incredible. Also, I don't think I can bring my dog now

It wasn't bad at all, considering it was inside

I saw heartless bastards at memphis in may a few years ago and enjoyed them. The chick lead singer is good. They seem like an odd choice though, they seemed more like indie pop to me.


Heartless Bastards are far from "indie pop". I would say they are a rock and roll band with some blues influence.

Nope, walked in with back pack, 2 bottles and a chair.


Also, while watching Henry Gray, spoke with Kenny Neal, he mentioned having a music fest in June somewhere in Port Allen

I really miss playing this festival. It was an amazing experience playing on The Old State Capital grounds back in the '80's.

I was one of the three guys talking to him when you came over. First time to meet him, unreal how nice and humble he is.

Did anyone catch The Chambers? I'm pretty sure I saw a 17 year old Jack White clone, was blown away.

Nah. I moved 2700 miles away and rarely play blues anymore. The old 12-bar 1-4-5 standards wear me down after 20 minutes. Plus, my drummer and bass buddies have passed away.
