I have a friend who attends at least one music festival
almost every year in Michigan. I’ve
never been but my friend says, “Just go-it’s a blast anywhere you go.”
Now, I know this post isn’t about writing but
isn’t music writing in a universal language?
And my sole Michigan person dropped and I just happened to be talking about
Michigan music festivals to my friend and I said, “HMMM…here’s my subject for
the blog.” And if you have ties to Michigan and you'd like to guest here next year, let me know.
Because of my music-minded friend from Michigan, I knew Michigan celebrated music a lot but,
click on the link https://localspins.com and you’ll find how much. There’s got to be something that interests
you musically in Michigan this year. Plus, there's plenty of festivals ALL the time so there has to be one that fits any busy schedule.
I’m partial to Wheatland Music Festival in September
because it’s just one of the many that holds a Woodstock feel. I was too young
for Woodstock #1 and not even close to in the same experience growing up in small
town Nebraska when Woodstock was going on but I do remember it happening. I had aunts and uncles who talked about
it. Years ago I had the original
Woodstock album—which I foolishly traded to someone as barter for, I don’t even
remember what. Funny how some things strike a person when they’re a kid and stick with them lifelong.
Anyway, check out the Wheatland Music
Festival in Remus, Michigan.
The Wheatland Music Festival is an annual
celebration of music and the arts, dating back to 1974. Each year, both local
and world renowned musicians gather together in early September for three days
of singing, dancing and friendship.
