| Summary: | As a supporter of the Ottawa Citizen Bluesfest since its beginning five years ago, it is with regret that I will not return next year unless serious changes occur. [Chris Cobb] mentions that Bluesfest may have outgrown Confederation Park.

The organizers of this year's Bluesfest should be congratulated for providing an outstanding mix of entertainment for blues lovers. However, they must realize the growth and success of this festival is due to the paying customers. |
