I saw Dragon's Smoke last year. Much better than Galactic IMO. They only play once or twice a year.

Robert Randolph - House of Blues Friday, April 27.

Never seen him live, but I heard he puts on a hell of a show...not sure if he will be at Jazz Fest. Couldn't find him on the cube.

I've been pretty pumped about seeing !!! for a while now

Probably go see Zeds Deads, Toubab Krewe, Lettuce, EOTO, and Washed Out as well

Gonna be like the third year in a row I've been more excited about the after shows than the fest itself

I saw him at wakarusa two years ago. He puts on a really sick show. I could have sworn he is from the south by the way he plays but he is actually from new jersey i think.

Add May 5th- The Howlin Wolf. Rebirth, Papa Grows Funk, and The Original Meters.
I've got tickets for both this show and Primus. Killing me. Pretty sure i go to the first Original Meters Club show in nola in 30 years though. That show is going to be killer, plus add Papa Grows and Rebirth. Funky Funky Funky...

Robert Randolph is indeed from Jersey. First time he played the fest we met him backstage, really nice guy. Saw him a couple of months ago at the Iridium Club up here, maybe 100 people.

He is not playing the fest.

Eric LIndell at Carrollton Station the first Friday.

Oh so we can keep "your top 5" and "what your favorite" Threads?

We need threads like this on this board!

He learned to play the lap steel in his church. His shows are super high energy and a great time.
