Just a short note to remind fans of straight-ahead American Rock & Roll that this vibe seems to be the main theme tomorrow (good 'ole American Independence Day! Wed., July 4th) at the nation's largest music festival - Milwaukee's Summerfest! Of course, the highlight of MY day tomorrow at Summerfest will be the performance of my mates Joe D'Urso & Stone Caravan at the Leinie Lodge at the Koss Pavilion ! This will be the band's 8th year playing this great festival! If you are on the premises, please look for me out by the Merchandise Tent & say hello! Joe D'Urso just returned from another very successful UK tour a couple of weeks ago (his second this year) and we were just informed that Joe & the whole band will be opening for Van Morrison in Cardiff, Wales in October as part of Stone Caravan's 3-week UK/European Tour! For more info on Joe & the band, log onto http:///www.jdcaravan.com and for 30-second sound clips of the latest CD, Rock 'n Roll Station (Schoolhouse Records), click here - http://shopping2.altavista.com/product.sdc?p=12785348. Headlining the Marcus Amphitheatre Stage that night will be Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers w/Jackson Browne, while such internationally-acclaimed artists as Steve Earle, Sonny Landreth, Mary Chapin Carpenter, and Aussie heart-throb rockers Brother play the various other stages (for schedules- . Other acts for Wednesday, July 4th include R&B funksters Cameo, Keanu Reeves' Dogstar (...'k...), Stabbing Westward, and Latin stalwarts Cubanisimo. (Psst - and for the OV'ers in the audience, the Yell Leaders will be playing on Thursday supporting Brother & Semisonic...) Summerfest, the nation's largest and one of the longest-running contemporary music festivals in the world, is located just east of downtown Milwaukee on the city's scenic lakefront. The festival runs from Thursday, June 28 through Sunday, July 8, 2001. The grounds are open from 11:30 am until midnight daily and one low admission price of $9.00 gains you access to all 12 stages (except the Marcus Amphitheatre which are available by pre-sale only) which all run entertainment all day long.

Hope the trip home was good and that you're not too jet lagged. I won't say how old you are - since we're now the same age and that would be giving the game away!

If so, email me off list. I'm volunteering there both nights, and maybe I could meet a few of you?
