Summerfest is incredible. Its the BIGGEST rock and roll show ANYWHERE and I can imagine spending an entire week there. Too tired to describe it but check out their website to get a feel for it….
Have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE these two women! Just got back from another great performance by two of the queens of rock and roll (imo there are very few women that can claim that title, it belongs to Janis, Chrissie and the Wilson sisters).
Not only was it a great show, but I got to sit between two guys who are passionate about music, Drew (my honey and the reason that I am here in Wisconsin) and Joe, the fantabulously groovy rock and roll writer and blogger extraordinaire.
It was great to meet Joe (aka Rock and Roll Guru). He is exactly the same in person as he is on his blog - full of life, fun, interesting and a down to earth great guy.
Ann and Nancy kicked ass as usual. Those two only get better with age. I love them! Ann’s voice is exceptional. She’s managed to keep her voice strong all these years. Not a single note was less than perfect. And Nancy is so fun to watch….she plays with her own style and sense of fun. I hope they keep rockin for years to come.
They did one of their new songs during the encore. It hasn’t been released yet and I can’t remember the name of it, but they dedicated it to “Michael” and I assumed they were referring to Michael Jackson. To read a very moving story about Stevie Wonder’s performance and tribute to Michael last night at Summerfest, see Joe’s post here.
Tomorrow night its back for more great music, we will be seeing Davy Knowles and Back Door Slam. In fact, I may even get to meet Davy, should I tell him I chose his band as the number one new band of 2008? Can not wait to hear him play/sing.
