Umphrey's Mcgee And The Disco Biscuits combine for Brain Damaged Eggmen show at Resonance Music Festival!

Thats right! After 7 years they are bringing it back for a one off show at Resonance Music and Art Festival. Resonance will take place September 20 - 22 at Legend Valley in Thornville, Ohio just outside of Columbus. The lineup features Papadosio playing 4 sets, EOTO with 2 sets, JGB with Melvin Seals, Pink Talking Phish, TAUK doing a Beatles tribute, and many more. They have recently announced that The Disco Biscuits will also be playing a headliner spot. I am betting Umphrey's will do the same. They have also recently announced The Omega Moos featuring memebers of Umphrey's and The New Deal are playing which will be an amazing show as well. The entire lineup is outstanding but Brain Damaged Eggmen is the big draw for me. I have not seen them since 2005 when they did a quick 3 song band change during their combined late night at Bonnaroo. It was my first time seeing Umphreys McGee or Disco Biscuits and it was life changing. It sent me off on a couple years on tour, hitting festivals and shows all year.

In the past few years Bisco and Umphrey's have drifted apart a bit after seemingly being joined at the hip. Its great to see them combining forces again. Legend Valley has never been my favorite place to see a show but they have made many improvments over the past few years and it has become a neutral for me. The venue isnt a draw for me but its not a deterent anymore as it was in years past.

Resonance has made a name for itself not just for the amazing musical lineup but also for the incredible artists that make it something more than just a music festival. It's a celebration of creativity. A smaller version of Electric Forest. So much to look at and shop for. With huge names like Alex Grey having stopped by before it's definitely becoming recognized as not only one of the premiere music festivals out here but also an amazing art show. There are plenty of reasons to be at Resonance this year. Let me know if your planning to make the trip. I personally cant wait!
