Some of us just can't wait for our yearly jaunt at Hootenanny in July, so in the meantime the two-day Rockabilly Weekend at the Orange County Market Place will surely hold us over with a guitar-pickin, upright bass-slappin' good time. You've got big-name headliners like James Intveld and Kim Lenz in the mix as well as Lil' Mo and the Dynamos, but the fest also features the three Rockabeauty Hair contests for the best and most striking mustache, beard and rockabilly hairstyles to grace a human head. So fellas, tame those flyaways in your pomade with some Suavecito, while you ladies get those victory rolls in shape. And if you're looking to mimic your favorite hairstyle, barbers will be on hand to make you look good.
