The Seattle Times is reporting that Trey Anastasio and 70 Volt Parade is going to play the upcoming Bumbershoot Festival over Labor Day Weekend in Seattle, September 2-5. It’s not confirmed on Trey.com nor Phish.com nor the Bumbershoot Festival website. Therefore, I’m calling this one a rumor for the time being, but it seems pretty believable. The already confirmed lineup is awesome.
From Bumbershoot.org
Devo + Ani DiFranco + Son Volt + Tift Merritt + Brazilian Girls + Digable Planets + The Decemberists + Ted Leo/Pharmacists + DeVotchKa + The Gospel Hummingbirds + Sarah Lee Guthrie & Johnny Irion + Keren Ann + Sonny Landreth + Billy Preston + The Duke Robillard Band + Billy Joe Shaver + Mavis Staples + hundreds more to be announced!
I’m assuming that Trey is part of that “hundreds more to be announced” statement. They’re telling us that we’ll get the rest of the lineup this upcoming weekend on July 15, so stay tuned to the Live Music Blog for the update.
