honestly, not for nuthin but you really didn\'t miss much. The Itals and Modern Groove on sat were were good, RAQ though was roughly a 1/2 hour late then took a half hour sound check, creating the only dead air I heard up to that point in the weekend. They played roughly 45 min, then it started pouring. Barefoot Manor didn\'t come on nor did Brother\'s Past for late night. So we ended up being stuck between our canopy and being in the truck, and no tunes. Brother\'s Past was really who I wanted to see on Sat, so I was ser bummed that they never played.
I was extremely upset about the end to the festival... RAQ was more like 1.5 hours late before they started to play for their 2 hour set. I understand that there are factors like traffic & other situations beyond the band\'s control, but honestly, to sound check for a half hour when they\'re already late was like a slap in the face to the fans. I mean, the Breakfast ran so late that they only had 15 minutes to load in & begin playing -- they started on time, and sounded INCREDIBLE with only a 30 second sound check! Also, when RAQ finally started playing, the sound guy forgot to shut off the house music, so they had about 10 minutes of interfering noise before someone realized & shut it off. Not cool.
I was also excited to see Brothers Past for latenight, though the rain canceled that as well
Ah, well, hopefully I\'ll get a chance to see them before the summer is over :shrug:
Besides these two incidents, the entire festival was run so smoothly, and I\'ll definitely go back next year to see the Breakfast play two sets & two nights
Buy your VIP tickets as soon as you can, I only see this festival getting more and more popular every year! :thumbsup::awwyeah:
