^^ I asked Harry about BG Days on Sunday and he said it's good that they change the lineup every year with no repeats because a variety is good and comparing to the first might be a letdown. He did mention that Haley will likely be home that same time this year because of a wedding in Wisconsin.

I hadn't had the time to respond to Tusk's Twitter message, but Himm2, I'm so glad that you had spoken with Harry before.

I would have said that it was to BG' advantage not to repeat concerts, but I doubt that anyone would have believed me, without Harry's confirmation.

@BGDays So any plans for @HaleyReinhart and Midnight this year?

@HaleysTusk sorry not this year

That's a bummer, that was a great show last year, I was hoping they would be performing there again this year. I wonder if the BG Days fest will have as many people in attendance this year without Haley and Midnight performing.

I would have believed you.

I keep suspecting and lobbying for Haley & Midnight being the Heritage Park Grand Opening act on the new bandshell & amphitheatre but it seems the bandshell part of this huge project will be the last thing completed. Hopefully before the end of summer.

Haley may not be in town to play….but Midnight will be playing at Wheeling's Night Under the Stars on July 3

BTW….When Haley's Indiegogo site came up looking for $15,000 for a concert, I did make that suggestion to the WPD….that would have been so cool to have her "open" the bandshell!

This would be appropriate! I hope for all of you in the area, that the bandshell is completed this summer and is "christened" (so to speak) with a Haley/Midnight concert.

I thought I'd be hearing from "the commish" when I made that comment. Hi Commish!

Still a ways to go.

Oohhh my -- a ways to go indeed. It will happen, but which summer were you referring to Himm???
