Widespread Panic - July 8

Ok, so once trail had finished and Elvis got his 100 Runs mug, it was time to head out to the show. Vag had scored 4 free tickets because some people she knew came in town just to go see Widespread...two nights in a row. Well, Friday night was cancelled, but all of those peeps could attend the Sunday night show. Seeing as their plane ticket was for Sunday afternoon, they couldn't go.

We first met up with Vag's friend Chris at Chon Som and all piled into one car. At the front gates of The Backyard, they REALLY looked inside my purse this time. At the 311 concert they just peeked inside, did a quick pat down on me and voila...I was in....with my camera. You'd think they'd only outlaw professional cameras, but they said NONE. Did I mention that I saw folks with cameras inside on the 4th EVERYWHERE? Maybe they were looking for drugs at the WP show because she pulled everything out of my purse. She saw the camera inside my koozie and made me take out the battery. I hid it behind a bush on a rock by the front gates. Little did that bee-atch know....I had a spare! Guess I should've put it in my cargo pocket like last time. Oh well.



So we listened to some music, ate a chopped BBQ sandwich, listened some more and then decided we were ready to go. We were the only 4 folks on the shuttle bus and we befriended the driver, Brian. He was quite amusing...and cool. He pulled into a gas station so we could go buy beer for our ride to our cars....the long 3 minute ride. Then someone joked about how he should be playing porn on the TVs....next thing we know, he pulls out a DVD. We pop it in and whammy....porn! Only got through one scene before we were pulling up to our cars. So he gave us the DVD. I think Teen Fanny ended up with it. Oh Lesley......



Buying beer....


Anyways, it was good to see Widespread in person...and to know I don't care to go again! Guess I'm just not a jam band kind of chick. At least I remembered to go grab my hidden camera battery when we left. Yay!
