For the Grids

[mendelj2]

I was there...believe I was there with Amy and Jeff and some other folks...just special. I saw Warren play with the Mule after Garcia's death as well and he just is able to verbalize such emotional issues....He had played at the CAC with the Mule and Galactic (was that it?) very late the prior evening. I have the JF recording of the set and it gives me chills every time I hear it.

I had to buy the cd of that. It was one of the best JF sets I have ever seen and still amazing today. The end with And it Stoned Me, One, and Soulshine was magical.

Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Oh, the water
Hope it don't r**n all day


And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home
And it stoned me

[chrisjoseph]

Oh, the water

And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like Jelly Roll
And it stoned me
And it stoned me to my soul
Stoned me just like goin' home

Oh, the dailies
Oh, the dailies

And it snowed me to my soul
Snowed me just like Rock 'n Bowl
And it snowed me

[glinda]

Now, I have no idea who that is. But he/they are on the schedule.
On the schedule? What schedule is that? Suzy Snowfake, you sho is a snot.

[chrisjoseph]

Wednesday, April 30

[ohio]

Wednesday, April 30
the sound of one hand clapping ;)

[chrisjoseph]

The good news is is that I get my pick of stages.

[NYMAMA]

On Charlie Musselwhites page it says
5/3 Private event La.

look like he's in the area!:)

[chrisjoseph]

yeah, we that discussed, but since I can't confirm it, we can't add it to the rumors page.

[jhjpotter]

Hey, I can't believe that nobody mentioned Warren Haynes JF set in '06. He played so beautifully and you knew that he chose every song from his heart..directed at post-K New Orleans. It was mesmorizing and I totally fell in love with that dude from that moment on. Was anyone else there?
That was an incredible set. One of my highlights that year for sure!!

[chrisjoseph]

Jeff, did Amy tell you that you are my new hero?

[jhjpotter]

Hope it don't r**n all day and if i recall, it was cloudy and stormy looking that day, and the weather seemed to subside at this line. I believe buffet was over on acura thwarting the weather with his song choices tooo.

[sophisticated sissy]

:eek: No way, they're selling tix for SEPTEMBER? Man, girl..I take it that it's sold out huh? That's going to be incredible! It's at someone's house?? Can you bring a guest? ;) wow!


Yes, I think the announcement was made in late August, believe it or not. And , yes, it is now sold out.

It's at a location called The Fur Peace Ranch in S.E. Ohio. It's a small (cap. 200), acoustically perfect performing space on the ranch, which is owned by former Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna guitarist, Jorma Kaukonen.

Warren is also heading a 4-day workshop there . The workshop sold out in less than 3 days.

Maybe I can sneak you in in my backpack?!?:D

[chrisjoseph]

here's a first weekend snowflake:

Delbert McClinton, 4/27 at the Fest

[almarco]

geez chris I have been looking for info for him at the fest for a while , well I am glad o see hes there.....

[chrisjoseph]

I don't know his music all that well...is he worth seeing?

[djgriff]

I really like Delbert. In looking for some information, I came across the following documentary. Anyone ever seen it?

Rocking the Boat: A Musical Conversation and Journey

For nearly 50 years, 3-time Grammy® award-winning, Roadhouse/Roots/Rock legend, Delbert McClinton has been playing to everything from packed honky tonks to opera houses. He is a revered figure among his musical colleagues.

He is said to have taught John Lennon licks on the harp as well as being the inspiration for the Blues Brothers, who honed their act on stage with him at the Lone Star Cafe in NYC in the 70's.

Since 1995, he has leased a cruise ship and filled it full of his musical friends and fans and thrown a floating music festival and retreat. From 11a.m. 'til 3 a.m., every day for 7 days, they rock the boat in the Caribbean. If you ask many cruisers where the ship is going they don't know. Most don't even care.

Rocking the Boat combines interviews with Delbert's fellow road warriors, as well as 21 live shipboard performances from the likes of Delbert, Rodney Crowell, Marcia Ball, Stephen Bruton, Jeffrey Steele and many others. The cast represents some of the best and most successful singer/songwriters working today. These artist are fiercely independent and have made many choices in favor of artistic integrity over commerce.

RTB was shot with 5 cameras in HD (this release is standard def). Two designated 24-track audio packages were used to capture live shows that will rock your world.

In 2007, RTB opened the 37th Annual USA Film Festival, won best documentary at the 16th Woods Hole Film Festival, and was also selected by the Breckenridge, Lone Star International, and Dixie Film festivals.

[almarco]

Hey chris he rocked the tent last time at the fest a few years back , a must see for sure. my calander is now marked!

[kapeman]

I wonder if this bodes well for a set from Kinky Freedman, too. Delbert
and Kinky are faves of Don Imus. Delbert is definitely worth seeing.

[csoul]

I don't know his music all that well...is he worth seeing?

Oh, for sure. He will have you dancing. Rumor has it that he taught John Lennon how to play the harmonica. He plays around Richmond quite a bit and he is one of my favs. I'm so Pizzed as we are 2nd weekenders. DAMN! Been checking his web-site, too.

[chrisjoseph]

Snowflakes fall slowly from the sky....

[festivalgirl]

I don't know his music all that well...is he worth seeing?

Most definitely. He must be playing 1st Sunday, right?

[chrisjoseph]

1st Sunday. But of course. Huh. I'm going to be there that day.

[Orleansnj]

Snowflakes fall slowly from the sky....

okay.....so what's next???? C'mon now.....we need a little flurry - or a blizzard?

[bluesmama]

:D I don't know his music all that well...is he worth seeing?

OMG! OMG! is he worth seeing
all i can say is don't put him in the blues tent & tell us not to dance!
there will be some booty shakin goin on fo sure !

[Staxsun]

Oh, for sure. He will have you dancing. Rumor has it that he taught John Lennon how to play the harmonica. He plays around Richmond quite a bit and he is one of my favs. I'm so Pizzed as we are 2nd weekenders. DAMN! Been checking his web-site, too.

Apparently the rumor is true. When he was a teenager he went to England with Bruce Channel who had a big hit at the time. The Beatles were on the bill with them, and Delbert taught John the harp. Shortly thereafter, John played it on "Love Me Do".

[Lit]

Now there is a legitimate and welcome snowflake for first weekend! Thanks Chris. Delbert is one who I actually checked on while looking for snowflakes myself. Seen him at fest before and he was great. I figured he might be likely to return for first weekend this time, because it appears to have a bit of a country theme going so far. I don't really like the Tim McGraw style of country music (and I was hoping it wouldn't veer too much in that direction, because that's not my thing) but I love Delbert, who is more country/blues/roots rock/Americana. It seems that the second weekend, as per the recent trend, is more jamband oriented. I do like a lot of that music too, but I don't like the dynamic that develops when bands like WSP, DMB, Phish, etc. who have their own mass following play the fest, because it seems like it's adding an entire additional crowd to the crowd that is already there for the fest. Same thing happens when Buffet plays and all the Parrot Heads come just because he's there. At that point, usually mid-day on second Saturday, the crowd just seems to become overwhelming almost everywhere on the fairgrounds. But I digress...great news about Delbert, and keep those first weekend snowflakes coming. More acts in the "good" country vein, including alt-country, would be The Gourds, Drive By Truckers, Robert Earl Keen, Steve Earle and James McMurtry.

I received the info on Delbert McClinton from someone who emailed Dank. However, it can be verified by going to the website:

http://www.kevinmckendree.com/dates.htm

What's my point? for those of you searching for snowflakes, another way of searching is to look at band member websites or myspace pages.

[VWGal]

I love Delbert -- this is a great snowflake! Haven't seen him for a few years, but I worked a dance party here in town a few years ago where 500 people had a sweaty-boogie-your-rear-off night that some are still talking about. It will be a lot of fun to see him at Fest....

[csoul]

I won free beers all night at a bar one time because I knew that irrelevant piece of music trivia ;)

The amount of irrelevant music trivia that I know could fill.....oh, nevermind; it's irrelevant. I've won lots of stuff over the years, but I stopped playing trivia in bars when they started saying "does anybody besides this guy right there know....?"

I know I am a bit late to the snowflake party here, but I have become so fixated on the disparity between first weekend and second weekend rumors that you have motivated me to spend hours and hours surfing the websites and myspace pages of literally more than a hundred acts that have come to mind, and those who have been offshoots of them. In that time I have found nothing except the curious trend that most artists' current schedules either end in March or have convenient gaps in late April through early May. But I have managed to pi$$ off my wife by having my laptop open constantly while sitting around the house and refusing to give a straight answer to her inquires about what the hell I'm doing spending all this time transfixed by the computer like I'm on a mission or something. It is to the point now that I am re-checking all the artists again to see if there is anything new since the last time I checked--kind of like I check this thread, oh, every ten minutes or so...

This is your first fest, isn't it? My husband has learned to appreciate my ..... obsession is an ugly word, but ...... The best thing that can happen is when you find out her favorite band/musician will be at JF. ;)

[funkkjunkie]

LOL! Welcome to the world of loving jazzfest more than anyone who doesn't can imagine! Really, no worries because once you're there, it is all so very good.

[almarco]

i THINK LIT IS ON THE WAY TO GETTING IT!......

[festivalgirl]

i THINK LIT IS ON THE WAY TO GETTING IT!......

Now we need to bring Mrs. Lit on bored.

[almarco]

Come over to the darkside mrs lit, the force is weak .......

[chrisjoseph]

I've never been able to get my wife to come over to the dark side. She thinks I'm completely obsessed with Jazzfest stuff. Am not! Are too! Oh. Been listening to my kids fight too much. Back to work!

[almarco]

ok mental pic , chris as the dark side master hunched over his laptop looking for snowflakes (look I have found another one lord vader .....)

[chrisjoseph]

that's a pretty accurate visual.

[rosetree]

I've never been able to get my wife to come over to the dark side. She thinks I'm completely obsessed with Jazzfest stuff. Am not! Are too! Oh. Been listening to my kids fight too much. Back to work!

Me either! Although Mrs. RT does enjoy the Threadhead Nation when we meet them or go out, she will never have this obsession!;) She says that she really likes my friends, but I do get the "hairy eyeball" if I go online at work while she is here....

[almarco]

Well the skery thing is chris is not alone , most of the threadhead faithful look like that more so as the line up release gets closer.....

[The Krewe of Chew]

Mary Weiss's appearance at the Ponderosa Stomp will be Tuesday (according to an e-mail just sent out by Richard X. Heyman, her guitar player). It lists 5pm as the time, but I'm assuming that is just the start time of the Stomp that day.

For those of you who don't know, Mary was the lead singer of the Shangrilas and she hasn't toured in 40 years.

That look left Festivalboy's face forever [I hope] when I booked the $39/night hotel. ;)

Although, he's in music download obsessionland when I'm hanging out with you guys. So I guess the trick is two computers when spousal obsessions differ.

and she put out an album in 2007 that's pretty damn good.

[Lit]

Nope, not the first fest for me. Seventh or eighth, I think (started in '95 and have been to most but not all since). And Mrs. Lit definitely gets it--all too well, from having attended four or five--as do young children of Lit, who have been to two fests (and counting...) themselves. But for various reasons it is not to be for the rest of the family this year, so Mr. Lit going solo again knows well enough to keep his mouth shut and count his blessings that he has such a wonderful wife that she is willing to allow this, while staying home with young children who are very, very upset to not be returning themselves this year. Simply put, it would not be wise for me pour salt in the wound by saying "Oh, I'm just ignoring the rest of you while checking hundreds of websites to see if I can find out who I might be able to see at the fest (which you will be missing) three months from now."

Here's another 1st weekend (first Sunday no less!) snowflake:

4/27, Sun at the Fest---

AsheSon

I think they are a local band; cuban music.

[almarco]

AH THE FORCE IS STRONG IN THIS CHRIS OH OBIEWAHN!.....

[mightyradgumbo]

ooohhhh, I like cuban music and have not heard of these folks...ahhh the wonder of jazzfest-another band never heard of to become a fan of.

[steffie]

ooohhhh, I like cuban music and have not heard of these folks...ahhh the wonder of jazzfest-another band never heard of to become a fan of.

Oh have I got some cubano music for you!!!!! I was in Cuba in October and have some fabulous cds. I will be there the week before jazzfest and I will be sure to grab some extra cds from the "local" musicians for you! :D

Cuban Mojito

[Corona]

That was the first time I had seen Warren Haynes live. Absolutely transfixed. Also love him playing with Dave Mathews Band in Central Park NY Video. Their version of Cortez the Killer is monumental.
Oh man, you nailed that one. I can't get enough of that tune. Good taste my friend :)

I've never been able to get my wife to come over to the dark side. She thinks I'm completely obsessed with Jazzfest stuff. Am not! Are too! Oh. Been listening to my kids fight too much. Back to work!
Roflmao....you're losing it hunni :)

[Stella Blue]

1st Sunday. But of course. Huh. I'm going to be there that day.

We are getting in that day, and the plan was to take some down-time after the plane ride, enjoy the energy from all the festival-goers when they got back into town, have a great night, and be well-rested for Piano Night the next day.
Cassandra Wilson is blowing a hole in that plan.
I realize first weekenders don't have a lot on the table right now, but Wilson is surely a treasure. I'm assuming she will be on later in the day -- and I'm also assuming we will be tossing our luggage to anyone gracious enough to take it at the hotel and bolting toward the grounds...

[NeenAtlanta]

No Springsteen.

Go ahead, kill my girlish hopes!
:rolleyes:

[denideadhead]

SNOWFLAKE.....PORTER BATISTE AND STOLTZ MAY 1st.

[Lit]

April 26th

Warren Storm,Willie"Tee" & "Cypress"

Per Warren Storm's website. He's a swamp pop drummer, plays in Lil Band O Gold.

[csoul]

SNOWFLAKE.....PORTER BATISTE AND STOLTZ MAY 1st.

YESSSSSSS! With that awesome snow flake, I will go to bed and have JazzFest dreams!

[funkkjunkie]

Oh yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! If yall haven't seen PBS lately, you gotta give them a listen. The boys are all in the same groove of funkiness. Everybody is smiling and playing hard.

[ohio]

Oh man, you nailed that one. I can't get enough of that tune. Good taste my friend :)Of course, it was written by the sweetest songwriter of our generation!

[funkkjunkie]

Lit, Willie Tee passed this fall. I imagine that was last year's fest date.

[Lit]

Lit, Willie Tee passed this fall. I imagine that was last year's fest date.

Hmmm...it says 2008 schedule on the website:
http://willietee.com/warschedule.htm

But I do imagine something's not right if Willie Tee passed away. Strange.

[Lit]

Ahhh. It's Willie -Tee Trahan of swamp pop/boogie music, not the more famous, now deceased, Willie Tee Turbinton, the New Orleans funk and soul legend. That's why. Still appears to be a legit snowflake then, albeit perhaps not as nice as it would be if it were the latter.

[Amyloves...]

OMG Lit...I am giggling all over the place reading your posts. You are DONE my brother. Welcome to threadhead-land. You'll get to the place where we all are...she'll start noticing "that look" on your face and walk from the room shaking her head.....or notice the spewed drinks across the monitor when it starts getting really obnoxious on here. Stick it out cause most of us are very nice folk and when she gets here in 09 she'll find out too. My dear hubby did all of the above but he later got it (but he still teases me about us all being a bunch of freaks.)

OMG! OMG! is he worth seeing
all i can say is don't put him in the blues tent & tell us not to dance!
there will be some booty shakin goin on fo sure !Ah yes, I believe the time has come to once again raise the battle cry, perhaps in its own dedicated thread, to
LET US DANCE IN THE BLUES TENT, GODDAMNIT!!!

[vegas]

U-Melt, Blue Nile, late night 5/3 (technically 5/4)

[chrisjoseph]

that one will be for Dank, for the club grids.

Ah yes, I believe the time has come to once again raise the battle cry, perhaps in its own dedicated thread, to

[Stella Blue]

Bump! Sorry, I know "The Dailies'' are the cool, happening thread right now. And tomorrow apparently will bring even hipper threads filled with joyous material. But I just couldn't let this one go yet, having watched it grow from a baby to the promise of another great festival.
Goodbye, "For the Grids,'' soon to be relegated to the back pages of the jazz forums -- unless, of course, people keep it going for the night performances?
You have been a fun, uplifting thread, mysterious in ways that the official announcement could never be... I will miss you:)

[windowman]

After looking at the lineup for this year, it seems clear that one band has been left out who is more appropriately named to play the opening slot on first Friday. You can catch them next Thursday, 1/31 at Republic Nola as their tour with Super Furry Animals comes to town. I am speaking of none other than the band who calls themselves Holyfuck:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

[mendelj2]

We can keep this alive for the inevitable "additions"!

Always torn - pumped for my weekend (1st) and jealous of 2nd!

Great lineup all the way through though (assuming its legit)!

[Carolina Beadhead]

For the Grids will now return to it's previously held purpose: To explore strange new websites, to seek out new gigs and new musicians, to boldly grid what no man could possibly experience in it's entirely.

:D

I love you guys...

Yall are more fun than a barrel of monkeys.

[VWGal]

I have to say that in my short history as a Threadhead (5 years), this run up to the Dailies was the most phunnest of all. Chris, you tease -- thanks for the fun! :D

[Corona]

I second that....thanks Chris :)

Now it's time for nighttime grid surprises!!!

[chrisjoseph]

Night-time grids....sigh. This is where I bow out....drum roll please....please meet your night-time gridder: DANK!

[jazzykeb]

What is the story with the night time grids? Is Dan doing it? Nothing over there on Jazzfestgrids.com

I didn't want to bother him with emails of announced shows if he was not running it this year.

[chrisjoseph]

Dank is the man. You can email him with info.

[jazzykeb]

thanks cj, will do

[marignygreg]

Dank, don't forget St. Claude Ave. music clubs. The Hi-Ho lounge and Saturn Bar have been hosting live music on a consistant basis as of late and should be hoppin at Fest time.

[mendelj2]

And thanks for doing your part CJ! Kept us going for weeks!
