well....
you know about the bean blossom blues fest where you can camp and jam all week end long.
there is the kalamazoo blues fest. 2 stages set next to each other so there is, almost, continuous music.
the cincinatti blues fest (never been) has great acts during the entire weekend.
another fest where you can camp in ne pennsylvania, billtown(?) blues fest.
the chicago has multiple stages but was a disappointment the time i went. maybe i was expecting too much from the home of electric blues.

I'm told that one of the best jams in the country is the Party at Big Dans in central Ohio. I think it's the weekend after the 4th of July. Would like to get some more info on that one.
