The Dead come to the Marcus Amphitheater tonight. The big question will be if Deadheads will swamp the festival grounds, or has the (Grateful) Dead following disappated. Opening for The Dead is country legend, Willie Nelson. If I were going, I'd see Willie and leave, but that's just me. This concert starts at 5:30, not 7:30 as most shows at the amphitheater start.
Summerfest isn't all music. Commedian Will Durst comes to entertain at the Hyundai Big Easy Club. He'll perform at 7:00.
Every once in a while a local band will get a big recording contract. The latest is hard rockers The Buzzhorn. Their major label debut is Disconnected. They'll play on the Moutain Dew Rock stage at 8:00.
Buckwheat Zydeco brings his foot-stomping, body-moving roots music to the Potawatomi Bingo Casino Stage at 10:00.
India.Arie (what's with that period, a dot-com thing?) sings songs from her latest Voyage to India at the Harley-Davidson Roadhouse at 10:00.
Also at 10:00 The Fabulous Thunderbirds play on the Briggs & Stratton Big Backyard.
Last but not least, Paul Cebar & The Milwaukeeans will be performing at 10:00 on the North Shore Bank Landing.
