10,000 Lakes Festival

The lineup for the 2009 10,000 Lakes Music Festival was announced a while back while we were still on hiatus, and they announced a few lineup additions late last week. The festival is set for July 22-25 back at Soo Pass Ranch in Detroit Lakes, MN, the long-time site of the beautiful and intimate four days of camping and musical celebration. Read on for the full lineup. READ MORE

Another music festival got announced this past week that we missed posting on, but it’s a mighty and strong performer in the annual “which festival is truly the best jamband festival” contest: 10,000 Lakes Festival in Minnesota. They announced the lineup for the festival set again on Soo Pass Ranch in Detroit Lakes, MN on the weekend of July 23-26; Phil Lesh & Friends and the Flaming Lips are the major headliners, with Michael Franti & Spearhead, George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic, and Mickey Hart Band rounding out the top of the bill.

People are always raging that this is a solid festival and I’ve never made the trek up there myself. I think I’ve got to get back into festivals soon and hope to hit a camping festival sometime during 2008. I’m not sure if this lineup itself would do it for me, but for any friend of the passed-out wooks all around us, this is solid bet for a ticket to Jerrytown.
