Northwest String Summit
 

Anyone going to the String Summit in Portland? Yonder Mountain String Band will be hosting the whole festival, so they play, like, a 3 hour set each night! They're so awesome live. And they're cds are amazing as well. So, yeah, the festival is August 25-28. Who's goin'?

Here's a list of the rest of the performers:

Yonder Mountain String Band, Chris Thile of Nickel Creek, Son Volt Acoustic, Todd Snider, Brendan Bayliss of Umphrey's McGee with Jeff Austin, Darol Anger & Republic of Strings, Noam Pikelny & Greg Garrison of Leftover Salmon with David Grier & Shad Cobb, Wayword Sons, Hit & Run, Shanti Groove, Cross-Eyed Rosie, Deadwood Revival

I stole that from the NWSS myspace page, so I'm not sure if it's totally accurate.
