Tonight my wife and I will venture into the Long Island thaw to catch Josh Ritter perform at the Landmark on Main Street in Port Washington. I know nothing about Josh Ritter, my wife is a fan, but this quaint theatre, where we attended a North Mississippi All Stars show some time back, is a bit of an unusual venue that has the feel of an old church basement; it is also unusual that the venue sells its own tickets thus eliminating exorbitant Ticketmaster fees, which is a nice bonus.

The Newport Folk Festival sold out immediately as usual and has begun its annual slow roll out of performers attending the July event held at Fort Adams in Rhode Island. Three stages; three days, many surprises, and one of my all time favorite events to attend each year.

Getting Ready to Get Down

Rock on!
