St. Augustine is known for being the nation’s oldest city, having been founded by the Spanish in 1565, but is quickly gaining a reputation for having one of the funkiest festivals around. Lettuce and company hosted the 2nd annual Fool’s Paradise this past weekend in the historic town of St. Augustine. Last year the festival proved to be a welcoming place for funky collaborations, tons of dancing and getting to meet lots of artists; this year was all that and more. The festival hosted two impressive headliners with 2x nights of Lettuce and a solid Joe Russo’s Almost Dead set

4 stages, 24 total acts, including EOTO, Marco Benevento, a late night Greensky Bluegrass show, and 2 sets of Umphrey’s McGee. That’s what you call a Pre-Party at Suwannee Hulaween! Needless to say the bar was set high early in the weekend. Marco Benevento was the first of many to funk up the Amphitheater stage during the extra warm afternoon. EOTO & Friends As always EOTO helped get this party going on Thursday, but taking the stage somewhat earlier than last year and being joined by Umphrey’s McGee’s guitarist Jake Cinniger and Break Science’s Borahm Lee.

Wedding Bells Rang in St. Augustine St. Augustine, America's oldest city hosted the inaugural Fool’s Paradise over April 1st and 2nd. Despite the name and taking place on April Fool’s Day, Fool’s Paradise was no joke! This festival had a whole lot of funk crammed into 2 days. Beach bums and babes was the theme of Friday, but being it April Fool’s Day the crowd was also full of jokers. Pirates & pranksters was the theme of Saturday and anywhere you were dancing at the St. Augustine Amphitheater, you could bet a pirate was near. The April Fool’s day pranks
