Mattoon St. Arts Festival 2013

[JIM D.]

For those of you on my side of the pond I'd like to remind you the Mattoon St. festival is on for Sept. 7&8 this year. It's the 41st year for the fest and info can be found at -- mattoonfestival.org -- if you visit this site take a look under food & entertainment and you will find a list of musicians that will perform during the two days of entertainment. I'll be working as the 2nd half of Bill Glenny's Dixieland Duo on the 8th between 2:00 to 4:00. Bill playing clarinet and myself playing the new FR-8x using tuba on the bass - guitar on the chords - and a combo of piano - banjo - and accordion on the treble. I'm also performing solo 4:00 to 5:00 strolling and taking requests with my recently restored 1940's Excelsior Symphony. JIM D.
