Ummmm, I don't think this is official yet.

(But it's still exciting.  I know nothing about Newport - has anyone ever been?)

the venue itself is worth going, it held at fort adams state park, the main stage looks out onto the water and all the boats, and they have 3 other stages with cool bluegrassy bands like the Mammals and old crow medicine show playing, very cool.

they should all form a superfolk band and do Band and Gram Parsons covers.
