Do all y'all Chicagoans know about this fella? He's keeping it real real and real fresh.

Oh, that crazy Vincent! I personally like him best in the zoot suit.

Okay - so the other day while waiting inline at my local Woolworth's Supermarket..which the locals down here call Wooly's - I picked up a line up of the Sydney music festival and I jotted down a couple because I wanted to get your take on them before I decided if I should swing by and check them out.

I guess this festival goes on for about 2 weeks in January, so I would probably be able to see heaps (a lot) of them if I wanted....

Reggie Watts
La Clique
Juana Molina
Bon Iver (which I think you've blogged about)
St. Vincent (as far as I know he is not related to the real fresh Vincent).
Bill Callahan
Moscow Art Trio
Joe Henry
Kristin Hersh
Dan Zanes & Friends
....and thats just to name a few....
let me know your thoughts.

p.s. even though we aren't related....I like your blog too.
love,
sammy

Sammy,

The only ones on there I recognize/think are worth seeing would be Bon Iver and St. Vincent (it's a she). The rest are probably southern hemisphere type bands (although Reggie Watts, La Clique, and Juana Molina sound familiar). I'll look into it and get back to you.

Heart,
Kappy

St. Vincent is a she?....Right, I knew that...I was just testing you. And you passed. With flying colors. Let me know what else you can dig up on the others, the festival isn't until January so we have some time -

Happy Thanksgiving :)
