Searching the web for some good reviews and found this one from the startribune.com;

A jammin\' good time at 10,000 Lakes Festival
Jon Bream,  Star Tribune
July 25, 2005 LAKESFESTIVAL0725
 
DETROIT LAKES, MINN. -- From the Big Phish under the stars to the sitar lady in the Saloon, the third annual 10,000 Lakes Festival was filled with thousands of good vibes.

The 3½-day jam-band fest, which ended late Sunday with a performance by Phish frontman Trey Anastasio, drew its biggest crowd ever -- 14,000 -- and enough enthusiasm for its promoters to promise a fourth fest next July.

After more than 40 bands played 50 hours of music on four stages at Soo Pass Ranch (no, I didn\'t experience it all), here are some impressions:

No matter what kind of music you play, you know you\'re a jam band if ... the audience is bouncing to the music but not all bouncing as one.

Most surprising performance: The reunited Black Crowes have reemerged as Southern-fried soulmen, with a touch of the Allman Brothers (dig the dual slide guitars) and with singer Chris Robinson doing some feverish testifying.

Other old favorites who delivered once again: the Jazz Mandolin Project, Widespread Panic, G. Love & Special Sauce, to name a few.

New discoveries I want to see again: the Breakfast (aggressive, intense rockers) and Grace Potter (a young, gospelly, piano-playing Bonnie Raitt).



Figure this will be a good place to post reviews and mentions if anyone comes across anything else....

10K Lakes might have been a new beginning for this band. The Breakfast need a national tour soon.

it really irks you that 21+ is basically a Breakfast standard.
I am all about all ages shows, or 18 and up, but until then, you will suffer with the inconvience of watching your favorite band play from a patio, cheers.
