14. Not going to be there at 9AM

16. Long drive and big carbon footprint, but that was fun

Got to see three old friends and visit. Carried our chairs so we could sit. Set out veg. seeds for $1.00 pack. No offers, guess I should have offered for free. Funny moment was my dog pissing on the bicycle Cop's bicycle. Picked up some 'deception dollars' from the 9/11 Truth Booth. Got in lots of people watching. When the speakers were on, the sound didn't carry to the back, I wondered if speakers in the back were not turned on. There was a lot more sound when the bands were on. Back in the car at 20 min. to 6, so we left early, got home at 9:30.....

17. I Loved The 9\11 Booth...

"9-11 TRUTH
and cookies"

We kept walking back and forth between the West Stage and the East Stage, so the sound kept constantly changing.

Had a great time!

:hi:

15. I'm wondering..

did they break the guitar ensemble record? I can't find any media reports. Makes me think they didn't. Just wondering for obvious reasons.

[WillyT]

18. I Don't Know For Sure, But...

It was scheduled to go off at 10:00 am. We didn't get there 'til 11:30, and the ground was still wet in front of the stage, there was still too much shade and cold, and the crowd hadn't gotten humongous yet.

So I'm thinkin your record is safe.

I'll let ya know if I find out different.
