California Roots Festival @ Monterey Fairgrounds

[Drunk Monk]

It's a solid Cali Reggae line-up, if you're into that sound. It's pop reggae. I wouldn't say that you're out of it. I'd say you're just not hip to the Cali Reggae scene, which is just as well. I think I have a sense of your reggae ear and it's not your sound. It's not mine either, but I've adapted to it as it's more prevalent nowadays. It's not rebel music. It's pop.

Thurs is about Alborosie for me. I was into him when he broke out. Italian Reggae. Wouldn't be desperate to see him tho. I have fond memories of the Dirty Heads here because I did a rescue when they were playing. 

5/24-25/13
I assisted a C-spine to Dirty Heads "Lay me down" which struck me as funny, even though it wasn't.  Poor girl.  She wasn't even drunk or high.  She just slipped and hit her head - LOC so we had to roll.  

Fri, well, I hate Rebelution because their assholes. J. Boog is Jawaiian which I also don't care for but he makes the ladies swoon. I kinda like Natalie Rize because some friends worship her but I couldn't name a song. 

Sat is phat Cali reggae. I'd work a lot whilst my Cali reggae fans watched the acts.

Sun - Jr. Gong. 'nuf said. And I'd check out Sublime out of respect, but I'd be prepared to be disappointed. 

It's so far away tho so it doesn't really matter. Maybe we'll revisit this thread in a year...
