Wishlist for Forecastle....

It really isn't.  Kinda sad, actually.   :(

Would be cool if they got John Prine, though.

didn't think of him....that would be great...

[ALady]

I'd like to see Charles Bradley and Gary Clark Jr.  I don't think either is particularly likely except that they'd be a good fit and seem to be on the festival circuit this year.

YES! Saw John and Jim at Newport in 2010... 

Nothin new to add here that hasn't already been mentioned....

Plausible additions: Dr Dog, Wilco, J Roddy, Dead Confederate, Iron & Wine, Lucero, Deer Tick, Dawes, Delta Spirit, Johny Corndawg, Calexico, PHJB, Neko Case, M Ward

Long shots: Black Keys, Neil Young, Pearl Jam

if even half of the bands we're throwing around in here wind up at the festival this will be one helluva weekend.

[sweatboard]

Bob Dylan and Daniel Johnston are nice thoughts.  Guided by Voices would be sweet. 

[e_wind]

Daniel Johnston doesn't seem like a dream... I saw him headline at Starry Nights Music Fest in 2010... A festival with less than 2,000 people.

[panack]

Titus Andronicus and The Hold Steady would be high on my list.

Yeah, but he has "issues".  Don't know that he could handle the crowd.

If Wax Fang and M. Ward are involved, I will be forced by the laws of physics to attend.

[Penny Lane]

then you need to come to Mt Jam with us!  ;)

[aMillionDreams]

Ya, I hope John Prine makes it.  I was gonna add Levon to the wishlist but I know that's out of the realm of possibilities. 

Oh, also Arlo Guthrie.  Jim's played gigs with him before and he's a great see.

[e_wind]

Why is Levon out?

[oistheone]

Levon is undergoing an operation next week and will be out of commission for a while, but he still has a date at Jazzfest, so I wouldn't say he's totally ruled out.

[aMillionDreams]

Didn't know Levon had a Jazzfest date.  Heard he was done for good.  Well, add him to my wishlist!

[oistheone]

Now that I look at it actually, the Jazzfest lineup just has the "Levon Helm Band" billed, which is the same billing that the band gets at Rambles even when Levon isn't present. So perhaps Levon will be out of commission after all. Either way, hope he gets well soon!

[bowl of soup]

The somewhat reunited Afghan Whigs.  Just my wishful thinking, but they have only 4 festival shows booked - 3 in Europe in late May and early June and then curating the ATP deal in New Jersey in September.  Big hole in the middle there, no Twilight shows, Kentucky Roots, JJ has talked about them as an influence.  Just saying.

Ezra Furman & the Harpoons
