Tickets: Hop on the website for some Early Bird tickets – available until April 22nd. All of a sudden the ticket sales have started to roll in. Gulp…

Who is Playing: We now have 54 bands registered, and 200 musicians. Which means you need to think about accommodation sooner rather than later – word is, the Castlemaine accommodation is filling up fast – although there are plenty of good places available in Maldon, Bendigo, and the local towns – all within 20 minutes of Castlemaine itself.

This week’s featured artists include:

· Cheap Frills: Cheap Frills has a diverse repertoire: Jaz Stutely sings everything from Bessie and Billie to Jobim, Janis Joplin (hence the band’s name) Momma Cass and Maria Muldaur.

· Ruby Rogers: yes that Ruby Rogers!

· The Wild Bunch New Orleans Party Band : party party party:
