I was thinking of going to see the “O Brother/Cold Mountain” show at Wolf Trap tonight, but my Dad’s out in Ashburn today, and we’ll meet up for dinner tonight.
Not like there’s a lack of shows to see. This weekend kicks off the festival season with the Herndon Festival (next week is Celebrate Fairfax, then the Alexacndria Waterfront Festival, and the Old Dominion Beer Festival the last week of June).
The whole schedule for the Herndon Festival is here, but here’s some of the acts I might see:
Thursday
7:30pm Surf’s Up (Beach Boys Tribute)
9:30pm Fireworks
Friday
8:00pm Tempest
Saturday
12:00pm Shane Hines
2:00pm Sam Fisher
3:30pm Shane Hines Band
4:00pm We’re About 9
7:30pm Matt Nathanson (he’ll be the best act here)
9:30pm Fireworks
Sunday
1:00pm Kevin Tully
2:00pm Cerulean Groove
4:00pm Virginia Coalition
The fireworks are pretty cool, because they set them off from the golf course, which is even closer to our house than the town green.
