One of the highest grossing festivals in the world from 1997 through 1999 was the Lilith Fair. A celebration of women in music which featured performances from Jewel, Sheryl Crow, Sarah McLachlan, and Martina McBride. If you remember back when the song ‘Independence Day’ was big from Martina McBride. I had the chance to attend the festival at a ballpark in Oklahoma City and thought it was a great show. The festival similar to the True Colors tour raised money for charity including over $10 million for national and local charities. Pictured is from a backstage festival photo of Martina McBride in front of her Lilith Fair tour bus with a local radio station intern (taken by me).
I took my 2 daughters to the show maybe 2003 or 2002 and it was a good day for mom and daughters, it doesn’t matter the orientation one way or the other. It should represent all the other human concerns, not secular preferance. That is very selfish.
It will be great to see Sarah headlining the main stage at Lilith 2010. myspace.com/bahiyyihmusic
