Yonder Mountain String Band Cabin Fever Tour 2010

Yonder Mountain String Band announced their annual Cabin Fever Tour which will take them all throughout the Midwest and Southeast. The band will do New Year's Eve at the Fillmore Auditorium in Denver and cap off the tour with a series of sets at Jam in the Dam 2010 in Melkweg, Amsterdam. Yonder is perhaps today's most popular touring bluegrass bands. They do a great job of modernizing the somewhat fading genre by doing interesting cover selections and keeping their live shows upbeat and in-your-face. Check these guys out if they come to a venue near you.

2010 Festival Updates

Festival season 2010 is a long way from now, but it never hurts to start your vacation planning a little earlier than usual. The festival that seems to be at the top of today's news is the Sasquatch! Music Festival that takes place annually at the Gorge Amphitheatre in Washington. Organizers have announced that the festival will once again take place on Memorial Day Weekend and while no lineup announcements have been made, Pitchfork reports that Pavement will be one of the 2010 headliners. Special 3-day early-bird tickets are already for sale for Sasquatch! on their website. Lollapalooza, Chicago's big summer classic, will be returning to Grant Park on August 6-8 2010. Early bird tickets have already sold out for Lolla '10, but organizers would like to hear from you as to who you would like to see play next year's festival. As it reads on the website:

"Tell us who you’d put on next year's Lollapalooza lineup, happening August 6-8, 2010. Give us your Top 5 artists — monster headliners to bands we’ve never even heard of -- from rock to avant-garde, indie to hip-hop, and all the sounds in between. Speak up by November 10. We’ll collect all of your ideas, then see what we can make happen."

Thats not much time to act, but if you're thinking about attending, its worth a submission. Just visit their website to do so. Below are a few more dates announced for other popular summer festivals.
