The Hangout 2011 in Gulf Shores was great! My husband and I went with some friends for the weekend festivities. The concerts included performances by Cee Lo Green, Foofighters, Amos Lee, Brandi Carlisle, Cas Haley, Avett Brothers along with many others. The artists that I listed are some of my personal faves. Of course, there were all genres of music at the fest but we went to acts that were of interest to us . I must say that the Foofighters put on the best show! They are awesome performers. Cee Lo Green also came out to perform with the Foofighters-so cool:) Although my style of music is mainly acoustic folk, I enjoyed the different sounds from all these artists. Click on the artist names to check them out for yourself!

Sounds like this was the perfect activity for you and your husband.
Jen,
I actually love your blog. I love music too and how original to tie these two together which also includes a very important piece of your life. All of you look like you were just so relaxed and having a great time. My daughter went down there for the festival and forgot to get a hotel room. So mom had to come to the rescue and put her and four friends in a tent at the local campground for the night. How appropriate, Hippy style!
I just left you a comment and it has not shown up. I hope it finds the way to your blog, but I wanted to post my favorite and it is Amos Lee.
Suzanne,
Amos Lee was awesome at the fest. We thoroughly enjoyed his performance. Love the story about your daughter and the tent...haha
Jen,
It turned out to be really funny them having to learn how to set the tent and sleeping with without air-conditioning. It probably helped them adjust though to those high temps out on the beach. I would love to see Amos Lee in concert because he has such a stage presence. Do you and your husband ever sing out in the local churches?
Jen,
My fiance and I were suppose to go to the festival too, but I got sick and was unable to make it. I love to go see different bands play. There is nothing like a live performance.
