For the second year in a row, patrons of the annual Trout Forest Music Festival in Ear Falls endured some very nasty weather, Aug. 13-15, that all but shut down the main stage and crammed the muddy hordes into the protective confines of the tent covering of Frank’s Tavern stage. Rain gear was a must over the weekend as the unrelenting rain and high winds persisted into Sunday, but festival die-hards enjoyed themselves and the great lineup of acts nonetheless. Local Peter Cortens also performed various times throughout the festival having secured some stage-time through the regional auditions process.
