Britt Fest, Jacksonville, Oregon

http://www.brittfest.org/ - big music and arts festival that has been running through the summer months in Southern Oregon for many years. Lots of big names, but I missed out on ticking Willie Nelson off my bucket list this year as tickets were sold out so quickly.

Son Gary and I went along and sat on the lawn on Tuesday to watch first of all Calexico:


The main attraction of the evening, however, was The Decemberists from Portland, Or. I've got a couple of their albums and knew some of their stuff - we've even played them at the Headbang - but I was a novice when compared with the rest of the audience, who seemed to know every word of every song:


Slightly eccentric and offbeat, but a really good gig.
