Here's my list:
Robert Plant/Allison Krause
Lucero (the rock band from Memphis, not the Mexican diva)
Thad Cockrell
Alejandro Escovedo
Nick Lowe
Bad Livers (Danny Barnes rules!)
Richard Thompson (fantastic musician, too bad he's such a leftist)
Roan Mountain Hilltoppers
Jerry Douglas
Wayne Hancock (will be seeing him on Dec. 27)
I’ve seen Toussaint play at some small venues and with Elvis Costello at the NOLA Jazz Fest. Very entertaining.
Don’t see him for the line up this year. But he has on occasions just shown up and played with others.
09 Jazz Fest Line Up if interested.

The Rio Hondo Symphony Orchestra (of Whittier, Calif.)
The Occidental College Glee Club
The Welsh Choir of Southern California
The USC Trojan Marching Band
A screening of the Harold Lloyd movie “Safety Last,” accompanied by Chris Eliot on the Wurlitzer organ at the Plummer Auditorium in Fullerton, Calif.
You're not alone!
They get NO MORE of my money or my family's money. Not a movie, CD, concert, TV show, magazine, or Internet click.
We started our pop-culture ban in September. We're on month four and none of us miss it. Actually, it's rather fun and we've got a lot more cash than we did before.
I'll second that! Saw them in Cincinnati, had a great time.
Great Big Sea - The best concert ever
My wife in her choir
Blue Man Group - They were OK
Miley Cyrus - OMG, she was bored, tired, and not good.
The Eagles played 4 sold out shows near Atlanta, and they played each night well past the first encore.
Well worth the tickets, which were expensive.
I saw Leon Russell 15-20 years ago at a very small venue. He sat behind a skirted table and played his keyboard we guess.
Fact was he never moved. We weren’t sure he was even alive!
Tower Of Power.
Oh, baby.
Nick Lowe played a solo/acoustic set. Still, well-crafted songs sound great in any context.
Still funky after 40 years
Les Dudek
Vince Gill
I think it’s funny seeing people mention that they saw Rush this year. I saw them in about 1974! :)
Spiritualized
The Polyphonic Spree
Fleet Foxes (had to miss the Athens show)
Darker My Love (just heard of em)
Eh, gotta run, that’s all for now........
George Strait with Little Big Town. My wife loves Strait so I had to go with her. Nice music. George being George.
Rush
2 Christmas concerts (elementary & middle school)
2 Spring concerts (elementary & middle school)
The only shows I went to were local ones where when my band played. I’m feeling pretty old!
The Bad Livers are back?
Is Mark still in the band?
Are the keyboards out of the band?
Jon Anderson (of Yes) with the School of Rock
Fish - 13th Star (Scottish Prog Rocker, ex lead singer of Marrilion)
Wishbone Ash
Rush
Yes In the Present tour
There are some interesting things that happen under the radar...
