Our hearts go out to the members of Rondo Hatton and their families as several members have been deeply affected by the flooding in Baton Rouge and surrounding areas. Unfortunately this means they are unable perform at this year's StompFest but hopefully will be back for next year's. I talked Sunday to lead guitarist Bruce Lamb who told me he was still planning on making an appearance so you may still hear a couple of Hatton tunes.
We are grateful however that our aquestrian friends SEAWHORSE from Richmond, Virginia will be making the trek down to perform for us. These guys played here in June and really put on one heck of a show so you're pretty much guaranteed a good time.

Chad, with the variety of artists mentioned & other surf events, the pieces of history mentioned, the something-for-everyone approach, that was a GREAT interview. Well done man!
Have a great time! Looking forward to hearing Seawhorse if anyone gets some video.
