I was gonna leave out tonight but decided against it after having a super crazy day at work. I will be there tomorrow, though!

I would love to go myself, but just can't swing it this time around. Post some pictures of videos if you can!

What are you going to be wearing, BearDad?
I am in the premium seating on the right side of the stage. I am wearing my Mad At The World shirt today.

Sorry I didn’t see this. My phone is really a piece of junk. I think I’ve dropped it too many times, it just doesn’t connect well to the service. Then I go into a big huge metal building like that And it’s practically worthless.
I started out in the right side “premium” area, but I was in the third row, far left. Never good when someone 5’4” ends up behind people 6’4” or more. So after Fear Not I moved over to the other side where there seemed to be fewer people. I’ll sit in about the same spot tomorrow if I can pull it off. I plan to wear my Human Code shirt.
I thought Fear Not was good but somehow less than stellar. Saint really showed up and was a serious wall of sound; I was really impressed. Ironwrath was definitely interesting, definitely different. Bride was a lot of fun! I couldn’t tell if Dale was losing it, or just acting silly. Lol I was right in front of Troy, that guy is a stellar guitar player! You probably couldn’t see it over on your side, but Les Carlson was on the far left during a good chunk of Bride’s set. Both he and his wife, write it by the stage.
Sorry, Staybrite. No pix.

No worries, if your phone is in that bad of shape all the pictures might be super blurry anyway! I hope you can meet up with Alldat (Chris). He is a super tall guy (over 6ft), with really short hair and a cool Tennessee accent!

I haven't spotted BearDad yet. I should be easy to spot today as I am wearing a button up shirt that looks like Eddie Van Halen's famed "Frankenstrat".

Saint did well; I was impressed by how well Dave did on the older tunes. He didn’t try to sound like Josh, just sang them. I was disappointed they didn’t do Warriors.
Shout was awesome. Very well mixed, and Ken truly commanded the stage. And it was obvious he was having a blast.
Worldview got cut short because of a late start to the whole day and other bands going over. Sad, as they did very well.
Sadly, the sound for Sacred Warrior was a mess, though they did perform well.
Whitecross was very good as well. Rex can really swing that axe! Funny, you wouldn’t know it to look at him. Like Larry Worly, he does not look like the typical metal guitar player! Like Saint, their new singer (can’t think of his name) didn’t try to sound like Scott on the older tunes, just gave them his own flavor. Really loved No Second Chances!

Curious to know how Saint did on the old Kramer tunes with Dave on vocals.
Dave did an amazing job on the old Kramer songs. He didn't try to sound like Josh, but he was able to hit all the notes!
