ROTHBURY: IT'S ALL OVER!!

Sadly, one of the summer's greatest music festivals is now over!! I'm currently finishing up this final blog and then heading back to Toronto from Michigan...

Blog1

I just want to say, congrats to Madison House and the Double JJ Ranch, as well as all the volunteers & artists... This festival was a huge success on every level!! Rothbury delivered on the music, the greening, the location, the weather, the art, and the vibe... IT WAS HOT HOT HOT... I don't think I heard a negative or "NOT HOT" comment all weekend, and I for one can't wait to come back next year!!

ROTHBURY'S IT COUPLE: JOHN & JENNIFER...

Jennifer Aniston is at Rothbury!! Aniston showed up to watch her boyfriend, John Mayer's set, and she's standing next to the stage in a floral print dress... She smiled at me!!

John

The couple showed up just for the day (they didn't camp out) and what's even cuter is that she is now blowing him kisses while he's on stage... How romantic!!

DAVE MATTHEWS DANCES AGAIN!!

Dave Matthews broke out in his new signature DANCE last night during his band's performance of Thank You at the Rothbury Music Fest.... He danced WAYYYY longer than last time... So amazing and so funny!!

LOOK-A-LIKES??

Bob Dylan and his youngest son, Jakob Dylan...

Jakob was spotted at The Rothbury Music Fest. playing with his band, The Gold Mountain Rebels... His father is so much better I must say, oh well, at least he's tryin'!! They do look-a-like though!!

LEROI MOORE FROM DAVE MATTHEWS BAND IN AN ACCIDENT!!

Dave Matthews Band performed last night at the 2008 Rothbury Music Fest. and Dave told the crowd that LeRoi Moore had been in a serious accident...

Our sources afterwords told us he was in an ATV crash a week ago at his farm and is in stable condition at the hospital still... He will be off the tour for a little bit and is being replaced by Jeff Coffin from Bela Fleck and the Flecktones...
