On January 9th, 2010 Grace Potter and the Nocturnals will play The Midnight Ramble with the legendary Levon Helm. The date appeared almost magically on gracepotter.com a few days ago. After performing on the same bill as Levon at “Gathering of the Vines” and “Merriweather Post Pavilion” it will be great to see them together.
For those of you not familiar with the setup, here’s a fantastic Jambase article on the Ramble.
So yes, it’s expensive ($150 per person) to head up to the woods and catch a Ramble. But, with a capacity of around 200, and no seat in the room more than 25 or 30 feet from the stage, you are truly immersed in the music. The intimacy that Helm and his team have created in The Barn rivals any concert I have ever been to, and the pristine sound and the care taken to ensure that everyone on site has a great time is a tribute to how much these folks care about music and delivering a once in a lifetime experience. Helm is a musical legend and is proving, on many Saturday nights through the year, that he is still as innovative as ever.
