Old Settlers Thursday Night

Rain. Every Festival history has it's rainy episodes. This year Old Settlers may very well write that chapter, they're expecting 3 inches over the weekend, but it's not raining at the moment... time will tell. This evening, however, when we arrived and throughout our set the rain fell. Bearfoot was onstage when we arrived. They sound great, Sam fits right in to the soundscape and Odessa's songwriting blew my mind. I had no idea. It's always good to see friends and catch up. A typical conversation is like this;
"how's things?"
"good. Shows, you know."
"sweet, me too."
"yeah"
"yeah"
"I need a beer"
"yeah"
"how's your van/bass/bandmates workin' out."
"oh, dude, things are awesome. We're having fun, the exhaust manifold's out on the van so we sound like Rednecks rolling into these festivals. It's awesome!"
"sweet"
"yeah, you wanna hear it?"
"no"

So as you can see, it's exciting to see friends at the festival. Brave Combo is ripping through brass tunes. Music is cool.
