Happy Summer Festival Season BISS Listers! Did you miss me while I was away at High SIerra Music Festival? As many of us all know, High Sierra is absolutely the best way to kick the summer season into high gear! This year was no exception! Great daytime shows distracted us from the heat and the night shows under a growing Moon and glowing Jupiter reminded us of the magic that brings us together. All those that participated and contributed made it the extra special event it is every year! Thank you to all!! Up next on my personal Summer festival radar, is my favorite cozy Nor-Cal fest to attend and work at called For The Funk Of It. It takes place in the quaint little town of Belden, CA (population: 22) over the weekend of 8/11-8/13. We are gonna have a blast! The lineup for this year's For The Funk Of It is stellar with all kinds of BISS List favorites including Karl Denson's Tiny Universe, Zigaboo Modeliste and The New Aahkesstra, Afrolicious, Dirty Revival, Mojo Green with Hornmageddon, Vokab Kompany, Katdelic, Soul Scratch, Tracorum, Motherlode, ZuhG, Pamela Parker & The Fantastic Machine, GROOVINCIBLE, Drunken Kung Fu, Hi Strangeness, 10 Minutes to Funk, The Sweat Band Experiment, Twin Engine, Sofa King, GNARPHUNK, Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio aka DLO3, Black Star Safari, & Boca do Rio. We are currently running a For The Funk Of It contest, giving away a coveted vehicle parking pass (value - $200) to the BISS Lister who spreads the word the most by sharing on Facebook, Twitter, Email, etc. Once shared, you simply email biss@bisslist.com to let us know where you've been spreading the word. We will be selecting a winner for the current contest by 7/15, However, I know we will be running another contest (not sure what fabulous prize that will be yet!) that starts on 7/15. While you are marking your calendars for all the best festivals coming up, be sure to make note of the Hangtown Music Festival taking place in Placerville, CA the weekend before Halloween (10/26-10/29). In it's 7th year, Hangtown's rocking lineup includes three nights of Railroad Earth shows, with Greensky Bluegrass, Dark Star Orchestra, Chris Robinson Brotherhood, Leftover Salmon, Turkuaz, Lukas Nelson & The Promise of the Real, Todd Snider, Fruition, The Dustbowl Revival, MarchFourth, Joe Craven & The Sometimers, Shook Twins, Monophonics, Scott Pemberton Band, Afrolicious, Mojo Green, City of Trees Brass Band, Low Flying Birds, Joe Craven (MC), and more to be announced.
