Futhur, Levon Helm, Big Gigantic, Caravan of Thieves, Tedeschi-Trucks Band, Taj Mahal, Kung Fu, Big Sam's Funky Nation GOTV 7/22/11 Seaside Park

Start the day with a healthy dose of funk from Big Sam's, we are still at shady grove so Sam can't deride the Steeler's Man. Local group Kung Fu starts the second stage equal mix of jam and Zappa-esque fills from guitarist Tim Palmieri. Standard set from Taj, always great to hear him play Katy. Tedeschi-Trucks have a new record and an expanded lineup. Susan took over vocal duty with Mike Mattison for an awesome set, this "big band" of jam and blues were great. Levon's band rounded out by Larry Campbell and wife, and Levon's daughter Amy played Band classics and americana standards. Furthur's show started strong with some highlights such as the Beatles Golden Slumbers. Second set fizzled and ended with no encore much to the chagrin of the salivating crowd. Late night showed off Colorado's Big Gigantic a sax-turntable and drums duo with a cool light show
