My Morning Jacket & Gary Clark Jr. at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD on 7/14/17

In another impressive show for Merriweather Post Pavilion’s 50th anniversary, My Morning Jacket with special guest Gary Clark Jr., came to play for the dedicated fans that were ready to kick off the weekend despite the hot temperatures. Friday was a hazy summer day at Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, MD but that didn’t stop the fans from piling in early so they didn’t miss the epic performance by Gary Clark Jr.

Gary Clark Jr., took the stage to a packed pit screaming for his impressive guitar riffs and solos. Clark showed why some people are referring to him as today’s Jimi Hendrix. The magnificent line up would seem like he would have been the headliner but My Morning Jacket wrapped up the night with an incredible 2 ½ hour set. The mix of beautiful lights with Jim James vocals and guitar playing brought the night to a perfect end which added another one in the books for the historic venue.

The Washington D.C. area alternative radio station DC101 had its annual summer festival Kerfuffle in Columbia, MD and hosted some of today’s popular acts.

The lineup for the day consisted of Kings of Leon, Weezer, Jimmy Eat World, Fitz and the Tantrums, Catfish and The Bottlemen, Highly Suspect, MISSIO, and The Unlikely Candidates. After several years of Kerfuffle, 2017 definitely reflected one of the strongest lineups they’ve had for the festival.  In a statement DC101’s program director, James Howard acknowledged, “We are truly proud of the artists we have assembled for this year’s DC101 Kerfuffle.  These artists are defining the sound of our generation and they are together for us on one exciting day.”
