I've been attending the Vision Festival ever since it began in 1996, every year and practically every set. I must admit that I am a music fest junkie ever since running away from home in August of 1969 (at age 15) to attend the Atlantic City Rock Festival, since my parents said I was too young to go...
Considering that I've been attending this annual Creative Music Festival since 1987, it seems hard to believe that this just might be the last edition of this wonderful, enchanting, challenging and important fest that I/we've grown to appreciate more every year that my friends and myself have traveled up to the Quebec countryside.
Saturday, May 1st was the actual anniversary of Downtown Music Gallery, 30 years to the day! I am immensely proud of all we've accomplished since we opened out doors on 211 East 5th St. in the East Village. Special thanks to all of the well-wishers who've written to us or come down in the past month, we do appreciate your kind words of support! We, here at DMG, are going to celebrate for the entire month with some live outdoor events, some in-store on-line events and a series of on-line episodes
