Legends on the Lawn
September 3rd, 2010
- Bob Dylan and his band playing to a sold-out crowd.
I can’t believe I’ve lived in Portland as a music lover for years, and JUST went to my first concert at Edgefield last night. What a show, and what a venue! This year’s summer concert series at Edgefield features living legends like Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson, as well as hot young bands like Vampire Weekend. There are still a few more shows to come until mid-September, but music fans should make a note to check out the calendar in the spring in anticipation for next summer.
With the McMenamins Edgefield hotel and winery on-site, signature groovy character and festival-like (yet intimate) setting, this outdoor venue is a destination in itself. In the winter months, check out the smaller live music shows (like the Small Batch Tours series) in the Edgefield hotel, sip a pint of McMenamins brew and soak in the artful atmosphere.

I saw my first show at Edgefield last Friday. It’s an amazing venue; definitely one of the best I’ve experienced. Great space, plenty of shade, delicious drinks … what more could you want!?
