Linda had the same reaction last night - Keb Mo in Freeport on Labor Day weekend. Can you imagine the horrors of trying to get there - and finding a parking spot???
Hey Keb pick up the damn phone and give your buddy Taylor a shout.Ask him if he can help you find Freeport Maine and keep you company in the willy-wags.
Keb Mo and Richie Havens?? Maine's another state I wish I lived in.
Thanks for the heads up!

Just a note on these if anyone goes.
1. Go very very early. The good areas to sit and see the stage fill up with local people very fast.
2. Car pool if you can. There is not alot of parking there.
3. Bring a hat and sunscreen.
4. Bring a chair/blanket if you can and your own food/drinks.
Other then that it's a really great place to see a cool show.
I might do Martin Sexton on June 28. Seriously thinking about it! Anyone want to join me?
If anyone is going to Toby Lightman (Fri. july 4), let me know....even if it's a few days notice, I am considering it.
