Unlike so many other music festivals, this was about the music, not the almighty dollar. With free admission, reasonable food and beverage prices, the friendly people of Clarksdale, and unbelievable music - this festival is already on my calendar for next year. The only disappointment of the trip was the absense of John Lee Hooker (too ill to attend). Hopefully we'll get to see him in 2000. |
