I've Got the Bluesfest Blues

 

Another Bluesfest has come and gone, one of the highlights of summer, and the year, for me.




I was privileged to see : The Black Keys, Flogging Molly, Great Big Sea and BB King.  Here are some videos :














 
 
The festival has been around since '94 and has evolved since. I've begun attending in 2010 though. Next year it turns 20. I'm curious to see who will perform and what will be done to celebrate the momentous occasion. Here is a list of performers I'd love to see who haven't played Bluesfest yet (correct me if I'm wrong, did my best to research this)
 
 
 
David Bowie
 
David Gilmour
 
Collective Soul
 
Daft Punk
 
Florence + the Machine

The Tolkien Signature Paperback Collection: Master Listing

If possible, it may be best to actually visit  the bookstore so you can see which one they actually have on their shelves.   This post is a Master Post, collecting ISBNs of the titles released in this style. I have made them into 'groups' or 'sets' for ease of reference, as well as possibly assist in purchasing them, if one were to get more than one book at once. Over the course of time, this post will get updated. Once a new title comes to this format, I'll do a separate blog post focusing on that title; and provide it's ISBN, cover art, and description.

An Update

So I bet you're wondering how The Saga of Kalvel is coming.  It's going well, but slow. I'm not putting into as much time writing the series as I'd like.

That's manuscript pages.  If I were total everything I'd ever written about Kalvel, it would be closer to around 100 (give or takr about 15 either direction, some things are in various states.) I've said before and again that the most difficult vo...
