Steppin' Out
Philly's K-floor visits Dogfish Head April 15
By Jen Ellingsworth
Taking its name from a classic
Howlin' Wolf blues tune,
Philadelphia ensemble K-Floor
makes a repeat performance at
Rehoboth's Dogfish Head
Brewings & Eats at 10 p.m.,
Saturday, April 15.
K-Floor has shared stages with
Robin Trower of Procul Harem,
Otis Rush and Roomful of Blues,
among other top-sbelf acts. K-
Floor's CD of original music,
"Non Filtered,'" was released in
April 1999. K-Floor began in
1996 at the Paseo School of Fine
Performing Arts in Kansas City,
with founding members Nick
Schnebelen, guitar and vocals,
Chris Schutz, bassist, and the
band's original drummer. After a
year playing as a trio on the local
circuit, K-Floor moved to
Philadelphia in 1997 and wel-
comed Justin DiFebbo as
pianist/B3 organist and Zil as
drummer/percussionist.
Playing authentic-style blues
with its own original twist, K-
Floor plays its own Philadelphia
area and beyond, performing at
clubs, festivals and other events.
Named Best Band in Philadelphia
in 1999, K-Floor has roots firmly
planted in the blues while pulling
elements from rock and swing.
The band has been featured on
Fox Television's Good Day
Philadelphia, radio station Y- 100's
Feztival and Philadelphia's Jam
on the River, among other engage-
ments. Along with Non Filtered,
the band also has a live recording
for sale at all its shows.

to feature Easter
Bunny- page 71 "
The Great Delaware Kite
Festival, cosponsored by the
Lewes Chamber of Commerce
and the Delaware Division of
Parks and Recreation, will take
place at Cape Henlopen State Park
on Good Friday, April 21. The
rain date is April 22. This popular
annual event regionally attracts
kite fliers and spectators and is
one of the events featured as part
of National Kite Month, which
lasts from March 25 through the
end of April.
Established 32 years ago when
the Maharajah of Bharatpur, Indila
challenged Delaware's governo)r
to a kite flying contest, the com,-
petition proved to be crowd pleas;-
er. Year after year the champii-
onship continued and in time,
people began coming with their
own kites. The festival draws
thousands of people to Cape
Henlopen to watch competitors
vie for ! 8 judged prizes. They ais,o
are treated to stunt kite flying b?y
professionals.
The longterm success of tMe
Great Delaware Kite Festival wats
acknowledged by Delaware gov-
ernor Tom Carper in 1998, when
the event captured the Governor's
Hall of Fame Tourism Award for
Outstanding Special Event: One
Day.
Business and community lead-
ers have donated awards for
novice and advanced competitors
of all ages. Six special class
awards will be designated for
superlatives, such as the smallest
competitor and most senior com-
petitor.
The competitor's entrance fee is
$1 for fliers up to 17 years old and
$2 for all others. Competitors can
also pay an additional $2 to com-
pete in the Highest Kite Award
category which will take place at
12:15 p.m., for all ages. Thereis
no charge to watch the competi-
tion. There is, however, a $2 per
car special event fee to enter the
state park, which is collected at
the entrance to the park.
Registration begins at 9 a.m.
