I'd love it if Tom Petty came, but given his announced dates, the only days that would make sense is if he played on one of the first two days.

These blues players are more than likely coming:
Ana Popovic
Curtis Salgado
Janiva Magness
John Németh
Leon Russell
Watermelon Slim

Also:
Tom Petty

Stevie Wonder

According to this:
http://eventful.com/events/...
Levon Helm is listed as playing with Carolyn Wonderland. She is actually playing, according to her website. Not sure why Levon is listed with her, but let's hope he is actually coming!
He also has bluesfest listed under his tour dates here, http://apps.bebo.com/my-ban... you will have to find it yourself though, I can't direct link to the date.

BRING RUSH! Rush baby Rush.

Why so angry Goldenboy9x? Do you want Jane Arden to come instead?

Re: Ottawa Bluesfest

golden9x — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 15:55:02 -0000

both the Hip and U2 deserve to play with each other...horrid bands!!!

Re: Ottawa Bluesfest

headhunter — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 15:17:38 -0000

u2 would be a great.

only because ottawa is such a shithole and they'd be a huge draw.

Re: Ottawa Bluesfest

The Source — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 15:15:49 -0000

U2 is rumoured. . . Dont Complain may be right!

No Shock, but it looks like the Hip will be there this year!

This is a good thing!

Re: Ottawa Bluesfest

DontComplain!!! — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 17:34:37 -0000

. . . and yeah The Roots would be a perfect act to bring to Bluesfest!

Re: Ottawa Bluesfest

DontComplain!!! — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 17:33:41 -0000

U2 - July 14th . . . only open date just before Mtl on their tour! No more a budget concern than KISS was. . . not a lot of big acts this summer, so lets not complain. This will be a huge show and one to remember! Besides it may attract the likes of Kravitz, The Fray or Interpol as well who will be on some of the U2 shows. Come on people, Bluesfest was always more then a Indie fest, it has a great balance of both large and smaller but amazing acts.

Re: Ottawa Bluesfest

Justin — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 16:04:20 -0000

I say Rage Against The Machine! their last tour date so far is june 12th at download, they could definately make it here! Soundgarden would be awesome too. Here's some more suggestions:
Rush
Alice in Chains
Black Crowes
Creed
Neil Young
The Offspring
Priestess
Rise Against
The Scorpions
The Smashing Pumpkins
Tool
Gorillaz
Radiohead
Wolfmother
The Roots
Les Claypool or Primus
