So, the dust has settled, the Boots hangover has likely subsided a bit.  So now we wanna know, Who do you wanna see @ Boots & Hearts 2017?  Last year we only got 4 of the artists out of the 20 we had put on our WISH LIST.   Hoping that this year we are a little more correct.  Here is who we have put together for #BH6

Something amazing set up shop at London’s Budweiser Gardens on Monday night. Spanning the entire 200 feet of the arena floor, the stage was set, for what I would personally say, was the show of the year thus far in London.

There’s no denying that the summer of 2015 was an incredible one for live entertainment with stellar line-ups at veteran festivals and even the addition of a few new ones including Way Home, Bestival, Capital Country Fest @ Spencerville Stampede to name just a few. Well hold onto your hats because fall 2015 is going to be even hotter and it all kicks off later this week, here’s our look ahead to some of the hottest events and tours still to come before we say farewell to 2015.

This past weekend we had a chance to spend 2 days in the small town of Lucknow, Ontario.  For those of you not sure where this quaint little town is.   Lucknow is located just over an hour North-West of Kitchener/ Waterloo.  Before I get started we want to thank all the amazing volunteers who put this fantastic weekend together.  With over 600+ volunteers pulling together to make this my personal favourite of the busy summer season.  This was our 2nd year making the 1h 35min drive to take in some of Country’s biggest names.

Well, as we all know the summer is coming to a close and there aren’t many festivals left on the calendar.  However one of my favourite events of the year is a mere 3 days away.  Lucknow MITF kicks off its 7th year on Friday night with another fantastic weekend of country music lined up.

The sun had returned and the stands were packed for the third and final day of the rodeo by the time I arrived at the grounds for the closing day of the 4th annual Spencerville Stampede.  Out of all three days of music we had assembled for the weekend Sunday’s lineup was my favourite as it was a fresh lineup for me.

So next week London, Ontario turns into one of Ontario’s go to destinations for concert goer’s of all types.

Jones Entertainment Group has put together another amazing year of Rock The Park as well as the 2nd Year for the expanded Gone Country Music Festival.  Now as most of you know I am a die-hard country music buff so this is one of the key festivals for me this summer and with the final lineup being confirmed just a couple of weeks ago due to Little Big Town having to pull out due to some medical issues within the band.   Here is what Brad and his team have lined up for entertainment.

So…

With the loss of Little Big Town to their line up it seems that Brad Jones and the crew at Jones Entertainment Group were going to have to go back to the well and figure out what they could get in place of such a high-profile band for the 2nd Annual Gone Country Music Festival being held in London, Ontario July 16 & 17th.

So,  We are only minutes into the big announcement that The Band Perry will be headlining the Saturday Night at Lucknow this year and Dallas Smith will be the Headliner for Friday night.  For those of you not familiar with the festival just take a quick peek at last years SOLD OUT event!  Don’t miss this 2015 Line Up!
