Guess what we did this evening...

That's right. Manon and I went for our wedding present balloon ride.


It was worth the wait.

The Unofficial Blue Skies Music Festival Lineup 2013

2014 Update: There is now an official Blue Skies website with a performers lineup!

Because a CBC radio programmer asked, and I know times are tough at the CBC and they can't afford researchers, here is a list of performers found through Google who say they’ll be at Blue Skies this year:

• Ferron
• Trout Fishing in America
• David Ross Macdonald
• The Funky Mamas
• Ken Whitely, the Levy Sisters & Ben Whiteley
• Evalyn Parry’s Spin (with Anne Lindsay)
• Roger James
• Eve Goldberg (Leading the Ukulele Orchestra)
• The Brights
• Alyssa Wright
• Don Bray
• Suzie Vinnick
• De Temps Antan
• Kate Weekes with Keitha Clark and Grant Simpson
• Ian Bell
• Magoo (his website does not actually say he’ll be there, but Wendell Ferguson says he will)
• Wendell Ferguson joins his pals David Woodhead, Rebecca Campbell, Michelle Josef and Magoo to form JUBILEE. The dance band for the finale on Saturday night

About tickets: I cannot help you get tickets. I'm lucky to get tickets myself and I certainly don't get one of those primo camping spots that are somehow already taken when the gates open on Friday morning. I cannot help you get tickets even if they are for a friend who only has 6 months to live and whose only wish is to camp at Blue Skies. You might try your luck with the hundreds of other people looking for tickets at the Facebook Group.
