Please, please…get Yonder back again, their set last year rocked! Last year was my first Dunegrass, and I loved it. Great lineup thus far!!
ANOTHER GREAT LINE UP FOR A GREAT FESTIVAL…BECAUSE OF YOU FOLKS WE ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO. THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT EFFORT. P.S. YOU OUGHT TO LOOK INTO THE SIM REDMOND BAND OR POSSIBLY RICHARD THOMPSON IN THE FUTURE. THEY BOTH WOULD BE A GREAT ADDITION TO THE LINE UP. THANKS AGAIN….
I would seriously love you forever if you could get david grisman back this year. I missed him last because of volunteering and still regret it.
Looking forward to another great year -
Take Care
Have you considered trying to get Keller Williams? He'd be a great addition to Dunegrass, or as a single billing at the Opera House!
Thanks,
Neil
I can't wait!!. Last year's Dunegrass was the best festival I went to last year. I would love to see Keller again. I really would love to see Mofro this year - their sound would really hit the spot.
Hey you should try and get Spearhead! They put on an awesome show!
peace and love
I agree that Keller would be an excellent addition. His set last year was absolutely amazing!
As far as other bands I'd like to see, I think Umphrey's McGee or Tea Leaf Green would be amazing additions to the 2008 line-up. I absolutely can't wait for this incredible weekend. See you July 31!!
How about Harry Manx? He would be a great addition.
Back Forty was the perfect fit for DUnegrass last year…. PLEASE say you're having them back again. Oh, and YMSB also!
Nice to see Donna on the bill. How about Terry Adams Rock and Roll Quartet? The piano genius of NRBQ has a smokin' new band, guaranteed to blow everyone away!!
Buckethead kicks ass I will be there for sure!!
I second Dave's comment. We NEED Yonder back. I'm dying for more Yonder this year.
How about Umphrey's McGee? Also see if the feet will come back. It's nice here in the summer.
yeah sup kids last year was my first dunegrass festy (just moved back from fla,) we need younder, keller back this year. its gonna be sweet t0 see melvin seals and jgb see yall there
How about turning Ratdog onto this beautiful festival?
How about WookieFoot from Minneapolis! They would rock!

Hey, how y'all doin'? The line-up looks ever so inviting once again. I would also like to put in a suggestion for other headliners: The David Grisman Quintet, Bella Fleck, or maybe even Yonder Mountain String Band. Love these guys and I know you will be putting on another wonderful family gathering. Much love to y'all, peace.
Oh hey, don't forget Cornmeal, and what about The New Riders Of The Purple Sage? I think they would love to visit and spark things up. Give it some thought, peace.
Oh, just noticed that The New Riders Of The Purple Sage are already scheduled for The Gathering Of The Vibes music festival taking place the same weekend, oh well maybe an idea for the future. Take care, hope to see y'all there, peace.
Yonder + Cornmeal. Puh-lease! Last year's sets were stellar. Do you remember Tim Carbone joining Cornmeal?!
Last year was amazing, wonderful lineup, but why beg for the same festival headliners to come back? That was last years great show. Let's see some new names, Avett Brothers or Old Crow Medicine Show? Any word on the location? Hoping for Empire again!
Love Tim Carbone, but Ally Kral ripped the fiddle ridiculous last year! Cornmeal is a MUST SEE!!!
I am loving the lineup thus far, but it seems theres a lot of people/groups that arent coming back this year. Darkstar Orchestra, Yonder mountain, david grisman, leftover salmon, cornmeal-any of those might kill me…..or just save my life.
Last year was awesome! This year could be better! The Waybacks would be the perfect addition, Bob Weir and the Waybacks even better. Here's some other great bands that would fit right in: Eddie from Ohio, Sam Bush, The Infamous Stringdusters.
OK….My friends went last year and loved it. Part of the appeal for me to go this year is that it is still a relatively small festival. Let's keep it that way. I'd agree that Yonder would be great. If you're looking for another name try The Time Jumpers… a little more western sound to it(twin fiddles and steele) but man the vocals and harmonies are out of this world.
awesome festival! good work! see ya all there
Last year's Dunegrass was awesome. Possibly one of the best music festivals I have ever attended… and I have been to MANY. That being said, I am very much looking forward to this year's Dunegrass, and I have every bit of faith that the organizers are going to make sure that the festival retains it's community/family vibe even though it is becoming more popular every year.
To all who plan on attending, have a GREAT time this year… and please be kind and courteous to those around you. It is possible to have an amazing experience AND still be kind and respectful to those around you. I know for fact, cause I witnessed it all around me last year!
Kudos to the Dunegrass organizers and volunteers!!!
