Trey keeps popping up all over the benefit and memorium scene…the latest out of the Bad Lieutenant’s camp: He’ll join Warren Haynes and friends at the 17th Annual Christmas Jam in Asheville, North Carolina. The lineup looks pretty sweet:
Warren Haynes Presents: The 17th Annual Christmas Jam on Saturday December 17, 2005 at the Asheville Civic Center in Asheville, NC. The initial list of performers is Trey Anastasio, Gov’t Mule, Electric Hot Tuna, Ray LaMontagne, John Medeski, Ivan Neville, Dave Schools, Jon Scofield and Paterson Hood and Jason Isbell from The Drive By Truckers. More additions will be made during the coming weeks. Tickets will go on-sale through X-Mas Jam Ticketing on Friday November 4th and through Ticketmaster and The Civic Center Box Office (no service charge) on Friday November 18th. [PT, Greenhaus]
