Robert Plant, Primus, Theivery Corporation and Steel Pulse Highlight High Sierra Music Festival

You can't give up something you really believe in for financial reasons. If you die by the roadside - so be it. But at least you know you've tried. Ten minutes in the music scene was the equal of one hundred years outside of it. - Robert Plant 

"I'm going to be working with Primus, Scott Pemberton Trio, and the Silent Frisco during High Sierra Music Festival 4th of July weekend!!!!" announced Seth J. Brown of TO Entertain U, LLC.
