I loved every soaking wet minute of it. It was a real treat for those of us that braved the downpour to see Jeff, Mike, and Matt join Joseph Arthur mid-afternoon. The people playing the side stages were well worth seeing. Eddie came out and did a song with the Strokes. Eddie, Josh Homme and Liam Finn did backup vocals for Chris Cornell during Say Hello 2 Heaven. The TOTD songs were great but the PJ set was spectacular. Dani Harrison played guitar on SOLAT. The only thing that could have possibly made it any better for me is dry shoes and socks. I have had 4 hours of sleep and I can't wait until I can go catch the shuttle and do it all over again. Yeah, it was very muddy and took a bit to get out of the parking lot, being an AV veteran, that's just the way it is.

Thank you 10C
Thank you Alpine Valley
Thank you Greg from Manitowoc who switched seats with me bacause I am 5' tall and the guy in from of me was over 6' tall and rather large and I could not see anything but his back.
Be kind whenever possible.
It is always possible.

    I didn't think anything could top Saturday...I was wrong. Sunday was the best day of music I have ever had the pleasure of hearing from the Young Evils to YLB and the Star Spangled Banner, it was a magical day.
