This week it's all about the Wanee Festival, the Allman-Brothers-hosted all-star jam extravaganza that brings a big crowd to Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Fl.
This year's lineup, as in past years, is epic. You can get your online ticket discount through tomorrow. It's $221.50 (including all the fees) online for a weekend ticket, which gets you shows Wednesday through Saturday and free primitive camping. On Wednesday, it's gate prices only -- and that will set you back $265. (Note: The Early Bird tix were $165!) Still, considering the number of shows and awesome musical raging that will doubtless occur, it will be money well spent.
Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk is going to do a James Brown set Wednesday night. And that's AFTER JGB (Jerry Garcia tribute band) AND after the smokin' New Orleans' band, The Radiators. Lord have Mercy! That's just Day One.
Here is the crazy good lineup:
The Allman Brothers Band, Widespread Panic, Robert Plant & Band of Joy, Steve Miller Band, Warren Haynes Band, Derek Trucks & Susan Tedeschi Band, Jaimoe’s Jasssz Band, Ween, Stephen Marley, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, Mike Gordon, Hot Tuna, 7 Walkers Feat.
