Also, I haven&#8217;t brought my website out to that area yet in person so this partnership will be a win-win situation. Now the website states that there will be some venue changes and I am CONSTANTLY adding and editing ALL my festival articles as I learn and discover things. I got HUGE NEWS concerning this festival, perhaps the most involved I have EVER been in ANY festival in this website&#8217;s history!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/littleclassrecords.com\/\">Little Class Records<\/a> CEO contacted me not long ago and asked me if I wanted to do some cross promotions with them, since I was already planning to cover the event live. <a href=\"http:\/\/westportsaloon.com\/\">The Westport Saloon<\/a> has a big hand in this festival and it appears that there is a whole area of venues involved within the Wesport district, which is Kansas City&#8217;s oldest portion of the city. There will be six stages involved and they all center the like music, I&#8217;ll be hosting the Honky Tonk stage and covering the event. All six stages go at once and four of them are indoor stages, two of them are outdoor tent stages. They are however pretty close together and within acceptable distance of one another.<\/p>\n<p>HERE is MORE information Concerning stage sponsors and what genre of music is being featured where.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/garyhayescountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Lagunitas.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4819\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4819\" src=\"https:\/\/garyhayescountry.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Lagunitas-196x300.jpg\" alt=\"Lagunitas\" width=\"196\" height=\"300\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LagunitasBrewingCo\/\">Languanitas Brewing Co.<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/WestportSaloon\/\">The Westport Saloon<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/LittleClassRecords\/\">Little Class Records<\/a> bring you the 2016 Westport Roots Festival Memorial Day weekend.
