BISS 07.02.15 - HAPPY HIGH SIERRA / HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY / HAPPY GD50 CHICAGO!!

Happy High Sierra BISS Listers! This week's BISS List is coming at you live from my tent at High Sierra Music Festival in Quincy, CA.  Over the next four days we'll get treated to the likes of The String Cheese Incident (two nights/four sets), Joe Russo's Almost Dead * Galactic, Shovels and Rope * The Wood Brothers * ALO, Nahko and Medicine for the People * California Honeydrops, The Barr Brothers * Pimps of Joytime, Surprise Me Mr. Davis * MarchFourth Marching Band * The Slip, Omaha Diner feat Charlie Hunter, Skerik, Bobby Previte, & Steve Bernstein, Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real * Rising Appalachia, Turkuaz * Steve Poltz * Sister Sparrow & The Dirty Birds, Living Daylights * Dan Bern The Brothers Comatose * Midnight North and many more!  The three-songs-is-a-set rule will definitely be in play! #workingtoo 
Another very important rule of BISS, is that there's no-such-thing-as-fomo (fear of missing out)! You're never really missing out, you are just somewhere else. Probably doing exactly what you are supposed to do. Whether that be in Chicago for GD50 or at home in the Bay with tons of great music and events to keep you entertained for months! 
There are tons of shows on the BISS Calendar of hand selected shows below and many chances to *WIN TICKETS* so read on! Please rep for BISS crew where ever you are!

I promise we will do the same!
