Fully In – Cornerstone Festival 2008 – Day 4


Wednesday – And So It Begins – July 2, 2008

The BBQ was fun and well attended. Linda (QoW) and Randy L made it onto the dusty grounds and joined us for a little convo and joy.

Press Tent happenings got underway today at 1 with our fave Cstone Icelandic band, Jack London, in all of their long leggedness. John C, of Skillet, handled the craziness of fest sound checks and Press conferences well. Wendi K spoke for the Rez Band, and Family Force Five seemed a little tired…but eh, it happens.

Fave show of the day was seeing Sixpence back at the ‘Stone playing the Gallery at night. Leigh looked sweet, ready, and happy in her gaudy thrift store dress. They brought old favorites along with new material.

Personal observation, Leigh seems to have a better handle the songs than I remember her having in the past. There seems to be an urgency in her delivery…a realness that I did not easily detect in the prior incarnation of this band.

The evening was spent in one of the Encore I Tent listening to the Myriad. I really like them better in the Gallery. Really hope they are scheduled there again next year.

I actually made it to bed before 4am. WOW, CSTONE???!
