Willie Nelson and some fine New Orleans musicians will give a free day-long concert on Pensacola Beach Sunday, Oct. 17, thanks to money from Gulf despoiler BP.
The free shows happen on the final day of DeLuna Fest October 15 and 16. You can get two free tickets per person. Check the DeLuna site (linked above) for details on that. Also on the Sunday lineup: Galactic, Big Sam's Funky Nation, Kermit Ruffin,and Honey Island Swamp Band. Nice!
Headliners for the two paid days of DeLuna Fest include Stone Temple Pilots, Daughtry, 311, Bush, Dierks Bentley, 30 Seconds to Mars and Michael Franti & Spearhead. In all, the two paid days encompass more than 20 acts on three stages.
Weekend passes, which include admission to all three days of the festival and guarantee admission to the free third day, are $90 advance, $99 at the gate. You can buy single-day passes for $47.50 per day advance, $55 at the gate. Purchase of single-day tickets doesn't guarantee admission for the free day. Complicated enough for ya?
No camping for this one, they want you to suppport hotels on Pensacaola Beach, which is probably a good thing considering the hellish summer the Gulf Coast has been forced to endure.

Thanks for sharing this information about the free concert in Pensacola! And for sharing the attached photo which is very moving. We all need to be reminded that the damage is still very real, even if we can't see it any more.
