About Me

"THERE AIN'T NOTHING LIKE A GRATEFUL GARCIA GATHERING AT LEGEND VALLEY (formerly Buckeye Lake Music Center) IN OHIO"
I've been putting together some nice family festivals and shows for the last 10 years. In a nutshell, I started with a TV show in Madison Wisconsin called the Tim Sundog Show. We hosted local bands every Saturday night "Live" on WYOU Cable Channel 4. It became a hit with the college students at the University of Wisconsin. Then, I started with getting regional bands, and then national artist such as Merl Saunders, Vince Welnick, David Gans, PROFESSOR LOUIE & THE CROWMATIX, Justin Kreuztmann, ect. You get the picture! So, then I decided to try organizing festivals, starting with Zappening 2000 www.Zappening.freeservers.com and it worked! I found my calling in life!!! I felt good about Zappening 2000, but I consider myself a Deadhead and set my sights for a Deadhead gathering, hence the Sundog Summer Shakedown was born in 2001. Continued it up until 2002 and I retired the name, and took a break in 2003 to gather my thoughts.
Failure is success turned inside out. I feel that failing on something just means you didn't tap into it right, so continued until I got it somewhat right!
In 2003, the Grateful Garcia Gathering came to life! The first 3G's was in Black River Falls and was home there up until 2007. Its been a long strange trip, but we've finally made it to Legend Valley Ohio with a just a little handshake, and a smile from Steve Trickle! www.LegendValley.net
Jambase artical: After 4 long years of memories, camping, music, and friendships made in Black River Falls Wisconsin, the long strange trip is over for the Grateful Garcia Gathering.The venue in Black River Falls will no longer be holding music festivals after this summer is over. The new home for the Grateful Garcia Gathering is now hosted at Legend Valley ( www.LegendValley.net ), just 20 minutes East of Columbus Ohio!

Legend Valley's (formerly Buckeye Lake Music Center in Ohio) owner Steve Trickle has been in contact with the organizers of the Grateful Garcia Gathering - Tim Sundog Corcoran and Anthony Lee, since last January about the possibility's of holding it at Legend Valley, a place where the Grateful Dead performed June 11th 1993. Steve said, "This would be the natural setting for the Grateful Garcia Gathering to be held each summer". The agreement was made by a mere handshake, and a smile! The 3G's is always set to date in between Jerry Garcia's birthday August 1st, and his untimely passing of August 9th. The Grateful Garcia Gathering is scheduled for the weekend of July 31st - August 2nd 2008.
