Acoustic Americana Music Guide, Sep 12 through 21
.
Team Effort Edition. The editor still can’t use the computer as his recovery from eye surgery progresses, and others have stepped-in to get this edition published for you to use and enjoy.

For many of us, Thanksgiving arrived early this year. Firefighters saved over a thousand homes (many built where they should never have been). And for at least one grateful editor, dedicated surgeons saved an eye that otherwise would have been lost.

This edition extensively covers the third week of September, including the Event-of-the-Month pick and summer’s last hurrah, the September 18-20 MILLPOND MUSIC FESTIVAL in Bishop.

Yes, Virginia, there’s MUSIC (a LOT of it) at the Los Angeles County Fair in Pomona: check our special sections at the beginning of each day’s listings. Plus (as always) there’s an almost incomprehensible number and variety of live acoustic performances all across the L.A. region. And we tell you about all those acoustic festivals, everywhere. AND radio shows featuring live performances and interviews with acoustic musicians that are available on the web. So raise a toast to the firefighters and enjoy some wonderful live acoustic music!

Whether you got to go anywhere this summer or not, the wonderful “MILLPOND MUSIC FESTIVAL” (the 18th annual), is a fine last hurrah to celebrate summer’s end, just north of Bishop, September 18-20. It’s an “EVENT-OF-THE-MONTH” pick; last year, Millpond made FolkWorks “Best of 2008 / Top Ten;” www.folkworks.org/content/view/35788/166. All you need to know about it is in the listings for Sep 18, 19 & 20. That, and all else that’s happening, hither and yon,

Yes, it’s true –
There are more ACOUSTIC AMERICANA / ACOUSTIC RENAISSANCE music performances EVERY week in the Los Angeles area than the COMBINED TOTAL of ALL OTHER KINDS OF MUSIC!
+
(And that doesn’t even take into account the dozens of electric Americana shows!)
