Hey, Bill -- The cat must have been shocked by the lack of message-board spam. It is pretty amazing, isn't it? (I'm assuming the cat wasn't drinking Blatz.)

Anyway, the last I heard we play two sets, at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. on July 2. Supposedly on the Garden Stage or the World Beat Stage -- not exactly sure, to be perfectly honest. I couldn't find a stage by either name on the Summerfest site. I'm just praying it's bigger than a picnic table and located in the shade.

Hope to see you there.

The cat won't touch Blatz. She's strickly a single malt scotch drinker.

I'm not sure about those stages at Summerfest either. The ones listed on the webpage don't match the names shown on the grounds map. I think the whole operation has gone into the dumper ever since they showed Bo Black the door. What the heck. We'll push together a couple of picnic tables for Billy's drum kit and you guys can set up under the overpass (where it's shady) and we'll make our own stage.

See you then!
