Folks,
Ottawa is a summer hotbed of music festivals: Chamberfest, Jazzfest, Bluesfest, and Folk Fest - to name but a few. A lot of other festivals (like Dragon Boat Fest have stages and music galore as well.)
Bluesfest http://ottawabluesfest.ca/ is the biggest of the bunch and opens this coming Thursday, July 3rd.
If any out-of-town member has a hankering to take in a day or three of this ten day event, and wants a place to crash that's within walking distance of rapid transit that will take you to the show site and back, drop me a PM. Check out the lineup!
So far Gen and I are committed to this coming Saturday, headlined by Lady Gaga! But there's at least a few more days that will be hard to resist (Beth Hart, Blondie, Lady Antebellum, The Band Perry, Barenaked Ladies, The Killers, Styx/Foreigner, and the Drive-By Truckers are just a few of the acts that appeal to me.)
As well as great music, there's lots of food and drink as well!
Regards.
Jeff
