Tamfest ’08: Did you miss Bonnaroo or Lollapalooza this year? Aw, don’t despair my festival loving friend, for Tammany Hall has all you need for a home grown, locally flavored music & art festival with Tamfest ’08 on Sept. 20. Setting up two stages (both inside and out) with twenty bands, local art, great food and drink, nighttime projections by VJ Beyonder, and games for kids of all ages, this will be the best $12 you’ll ever spend ($10 in advance). Kevin Zona and Thomas Hammond, co-owners of Tammany Hall, have done their best to bring an eclectic mix of local music to this day long event. To make the music accessible to fans of all ages, the performances will be all ages from noon -8pm, then 18+ from 8p.m.-2a.m. As Jaime Dillon from ECI Productions, Event Coordinator for events at Tammany Hall explains, “We really want to support the whole music scene. We appreciate the passion of the all-ages fans and hope to have them as customers in the years to come. We have worked hard to promote this event at the colleges and welcome families and kids of all ages.” Besides the music, stop by for face painting with the kids, fun with hoola hoops, Frisbee, Nerf balls, glow sticks and more. Bands include Ray Hendrick’s Revival, Sam James Band, Uncle Billy’s Smokehouse, Humblebee, Black River Sound, Skullfunked (pictured), New Pond Fondle, The Curtain Society, New Pilot, Mass Elite, The Franks, Weight of Gravity, Matt Shwachman Band, Dave Rivers Group, Hey Now Morris Fader, Brendan Mahoney, Dusty Cob, Radix, 508 Family Business and more. 43 Pleasant St., myspace.com/tamhall.
