Dancer'sChoice Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 We all heard last weekend that DSO is headlining Gratefulfest 11 this July 4 weekend. So, simple question, who else would you like to see on the bill? Personally, I'm hoping Keller makes another appearance, and I would love to see Cornmeal, as I have only heard their recordings on Archive. I'd also love to see JGB again, but who knows if Stu will be a JGB member by that point. If that's the case, maybe we can see Melvin play with Kimock again.

Guest deadheadmike Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Serious post !!! with no Rothbury this summer the available talent is somewhat limitless at this point in time ... if I make it to G-Fest this year , my primary reason will be to see DSO ... everyone else is secondary ... there should probably be some strong secondaries though ... I really like the ones you mentioned ... the official line-up should be pretty darn good ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarahsmile Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 aside from the usual suspects, I really enjoyed DJ Harry last year and Cornmeal and The Bridge the year before that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Cornmeal! Nothing that I need to add or do... Melvin and JGB! Coming fresh off last Saturdays show, et cetera et cetera... Plus Greyspoke and all the other unusual suspects! Plus a cast of thousands...

Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I think Kdub should play a late night set in the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP kdubfan Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I think Kdub should play a late night set in the woods. the late night woods sets will start Sunday or Monday at the latest! Thanks Rick... You rock! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP Mango Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 jgb and cornmeal are staples of gfest so they gotta be there. Medeski, Martin, and Wood- probably a long shot but that would be sick. Toubab Krewe- If you haven't heard them I suggest you do. they played rotherbury last year... http://www.archive.org/details/tk2009-10-22.akg483.flac16 the only band that is a priority for to me see is, of course, dso. and mike- seriously considering not going to gratefulfest???? get a hotel room if you have to but don't miss the best weekend of the year!

Forum MVP anddave Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 '07 festers may recall we got a pre-fest treat of Rickie Lee Jones! Nice set but I fear we frightened her. Terrapin Nation is always enjoyable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP chuckvegas Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Terrapin Nation is always enjoyable! True that! But they haven't been around since NYE at the Keswick, I don't think. I wonder what happened, they didn't like the crowds either...? It sure would be nice if they did another sound check or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugdog Posted January 26, 2010 Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I was listening to an acoustic "Terrapin Nation" show yesterday from back in '06 (I think)......I know they played an acoustic Aiko (fun-fun), a Dire Wolf, and I'm pretty sure Rob covered "Ophelia" also. Keith Moseley (SCI) does a great cover of Ophelia too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP found Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Will DSO be playing a soundcheck set on the thursday before the "start" of the festival?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum MVP anddave Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I wonder what happened, they didn't like the crowds either...? DSO would steal all their musicians after every show! I'm pretty sure Rob covered "Ophelia" also. Kevin sings Ophelia. >ahem< Kevin, Callous is a great song and it should be played at the Ledges!!

Forum MVP Teacher Matt Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 I would not say Cornmeal is a staple of Gratefulfest ... last year they were at High Sierra Festival in California... and the way that they have been playing more stuff West of the Mississippi don't be surprised to see them in Cali again.. with that said - hope they are at GFest for ya all Warren - the closest town with a hotel is only about 20 minutes away...

Forum MVP Teacher Matt Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 you have a few to choose from since it is close to the Ohio Turnpike... also should be able to locate some Bed & Breakfasts in the area around the Ledges ... a little research would be needed.... but with the amount of posts you make I imagine you do have some extra time on your hands...

Forum MVP Tom Banjo Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Mike, just get yourself a tent and an air mattress and come party with the freaks out in the woods. We plan to get loose. I think the Teacher got a little lost in the woods last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forum MVP kdubfan Posted January 26, 2010 Forum MVP Report Share Posted January 26, 2010 Well Mike it's sounding like tents freak you out a bit. You can always have an RV set up and ready for you when you get to the Ledges. I was thinking about it but I would miss all the fun in the woods at night. After all that is where the real magic happens :) Bone up on your boy scout days and rough it! (sorry that sounded so gay) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
