So, it a funny thing happened on my way to global dominance (with respect to running a music website). I got a job. It has really, really cut into my time and energy and all of a sudden, it's been 6 months since I even wrote a lousy blog piece.
An even funnier thing happens when a guy who does trade shows, specializing in Lawn/Garden and a guy who knows a fair bit, but cares even more about, music have a beer. They decide they ought to throw a music festival together. In two months. How much experience do they have? They went to Bluesfest. Once. Separately. That should count for something. Right?
So my old high school buddy Steve and I recruit Jeff, my Lysten partner (you all know him right?) to run the technical side of this, because well...he's on Facebook, so he knows things. Right?
Collectively we decide we ought to have someone with a little experience on our side, and we recruit Chris White of Ottawa FolkFest fame. He knows stuff right? Sure does.
