35th Season? Wow, I didn’t realize the show has been around that long. Good stuff. And from the looks of it, a pretty killer line-up for 2009-2010.
Speaking of Dr. Dog and Hardly Strictly Bluegrass, I forgot to post the lineup on this when it got posted. Or was it just posted today? I didn’t make it out for this at all last year, but you can believe I’ll be in Golden Gate Park for most of that weekend. You really can’t beat a free music festival. READ MORE
It’s officially a proper start to the summer festival season with today’s first day of Coachella underway as I type this. The lineup didn’t necessarily blow me away this year, so thankfully for my skin and my pocketbook I won’t be in attendance. But I will get to enjoy some of the action from home thanks to the ever-present corporate webcasting giant, AT&T. Over on their new iteration of the Blueroom is a site called AT&T Music, and they’ll be webcasting all weekend from Coachella. Tune in today at 2:50pm PST when the actions kicks off.
