FabFest Interview Schedule For July 10th

As I mentioned on WBTV this morning, I'll be interviewing Joey Molland of Badfinger at 4pm in McGlohon Theater, to close out our day portion of the festival on July 10th.

Joey's interview will be my third interview in as many hours that day. At 2pm, I'll be interviewing original Steely Dan vocalist, Carole King lyricist and Charlotte-based photographer David Palmer in the presenter's room, followed by a talk with Beatles collector Phil Winfield, whose collection has to be seen to be believed. 

Tickets will be available at the door, or at fabfestcharlotte.org. A portion of events both outside, and inside Spirit Square will also be free. Wall to wall Beatles, wall to wall Fab. Hope to see you there, and see you on the road.

Saturday, on WBTV at 7am to promote FabFest, photos of the Dancing Fleas live recording in Shelby, then to Monroe, NC for photos of the Mod Sixties. Sunday, photos of Firefall, Orleans, Pure Prairie League and Atlanta Rhythm Section in Fletcher, NC. Special mention goes to the Rusty Young and Poco tribute that a group of local musicians presented.

FabFest 2021

In just over two weeks, FabFest returns to Charlotte on July 9th and 10th. This year, you can see the Fab Four at the Belk Theater on July 9th, and the annual Tosco Beatles tribute at the Belk on the following night.

On July 10th, we'll take over Spirit Square from 10am to 5pm for both free and ticketed events, both inside and out. Games, music, rare Beatles videos, and lots more. I'll be one of the featured speakers and presenters, and you can watch me interview Joey Molland of Badfinger onstage at the McGlohon Theater at 4pm. Joey will also be performing, and will also be at Belk Theater that night. 

I'll also be talking FabFest on WBTV this Thursday, around 12:20pm. Tune in and turn on.

Spread the word. Music is back. Support your local artists, musicians and venues. You're such a lovely audience, and see you on the road.

Mr. Cash, Eighteen Years Later

Eighteen years ago today, I photographed Johnny Cash performing a tribute show to June Carter Cash at the Carter Fold, in Hiltons, VA. An amazing, emotional and unreal experience that has never left me. Here's to you, Mr. Cash. May be circle be unbroken.
